Bristol City v Hull

Bristol City vs Hull City Preview

Bristol City ended a dismal run of four games without a win in the Championship last weekend when The Robins registered a 1-0 home win against Sunderland which has helped the west country outfit up into 14th place in the Championship table while Hull City moved up into the play-off pack after recording a comprehensive 3-0 home win against Cardiff City.

Bristol City had previously slumped to three defeats within their preceding four league matches which saw The Robins suffer losses at the hands of Southampton, Norwich City and Blackburn Rovers respectively whilst picking up a point in a draw away from home at Huddersfield Town.

Overall results this season though have been typically inconsistent as Bristol City have collected eight wins, drawn five but also lost the other nine games so their current league position of 14th in the Championship table is a true reflection of their form overall this season to date.

Bristol City's inconsistent streak has overflowed into results at home as well with five wins but also slipping to four defeats within their 11 home games so far this term so literally anything could happen at Ashton Gate on Friday night!

Hull City lifted themselves up into sixth place and therefore the play-off pack in the Championship following their comprehensive 3-0 home win against Cardiff City which came after a previous and impressive 2-1 win away from home at Middlesbrough so Liam Rosenior's side will be in confident mood as they prepare for this trip down to the west country on Friday night.

Hull had earlier made an impressive and solid start to this Championship campaign as The Tigers had been handed just the one defeat in their opening nine league games in the English second tier but although further defeats have been dealt out to the visitors in subsequent games, Rosenior's side have also responded in positive fashion as well.

The Tigers have lost five of their subsequent 13 league games in the Championship, two of which were at home, but the visitors have also picked up six wins in the process during this period which includes wins on the road at Birmingham City and Middlesbrough, so they will feel they stand a decent chance of securing a result against Bristol City on Friday night.

Bristol City v Hull City Verdict

Both Bristol City and Hull City have produced some inconsistent results lately in the Championship and upon first glance, this clash could go either way in terms of selecting a clear winner.

However, Hull City appear to have the better of the momentum behind them having won their last two games on the trot and the visitors also have the added incentive of needing to stay in the top six as well.

Therefore, our main bet will be Hull City win @ 2.70
