Hull City have not won any of their last 5 games against Bristol City (Bristol City won 2, drawn 3).
Hull City
- Jaden Philogene has been a brilliant signing and provides an outlet on the break and causes defenders all sorts of trouble with his pace and dribbling ability.
- Oli McBurnie is Hull City’s main threat in the box and his 11 goals from 20 Championship appearances this season is a return that is keeping them in the promotion race.
Bristol City
- They have an abundance of directness and energy on the flanks with Sam Bell.
- Scott Twine leads the scoring charts with 8 goals from 29 Championship matches and always seems to have time and space to pick his spot on the edge of the penalty box, whether that be on his right foot or left, and can be deadly from set pieces too.
Betting Insights
- Hull are favorites at 2.26, Bristol City at 3.0 and the draw at 3.35.
- We favour the over 2.5 goals market at 1.83 as there should be many chances at both ends.
Prediction
- This Saturday’s Championship matchup between 3rd placed Hull City (53pts from 29 games) and 9th placed Bristol City (43pts from 30) is a game of promotion hopefuls and contrasting styles.
- Hull City have much of the momentum this Championship season and will be very tough to beat with home advantage.
- Bristol City are a high-press team that tries to win the ball as high up the field as possible and then play vertical football as a unit, which can leave them exposed on the wings.
- Hull will probably have enough to edge out the visitors in what will be a very tough matchup, but expect chances at both ends.
