Championship, played Friday, March 29th, 2024
Here is our Hull v Stoke tip and game preview. Based on our detailed analysis of statistics listed below and other factors, we predicted both teams to not score in this game, under 2.5 goals, and a Hull home win. Our confidence in this tip was moderate relative to other tips.
Having drawn each of their last four games in the Championship, Hull City still remain sitting on the fringes of the play-off pack in the English second flight table as The Tigers signed off just before the international break with a 2-2 draw at home with Leicester City, while Stoke City returned to losing ways last time out as The Potters slumped to a disappointing 3-0 defeat at home to Norwich City at their bet365 Stadium.
Nevertheless, Hull City have extended their unbeaten run in the Championship to seven games overall as The Tigers had previously racked up three wins on the trot with victories gained over Rotherham United, Huddersfield Town and most impressive of all, a 2-1 win against high-flying Southampton.
Even more impressive is the fact that all three of these recent wins were achieved on their travels as well, whilst Hull have also picked up points by way of draws with West Brom, Preston NE, Birmingham City and Leicester City as well.
Hull City have lost just four of their last 13 home games and having picked up six wins within this period as well at their MKM Stadium, The Tigers look in good shape to add to their points tally here.
Stoke City remained in 19th place in the Championship table despite their disappointing and worrying 3-0 loss at home to Norwich City and The Potters face a very tricky trip up north to Hull City on Good Friday which could quite easily turn into a bad Friday for the visitors.
Following a solid and stubborn unbeaten run of seven games from mid-December through to mid-January which included wins against Birmingham City and Rotherham United, Stoke City's form and results have taken an alarming turn for the worse as The Potters have tumbled down the Championship table.
Despite collecting important wins against QPR, Middlesbrough and Preston NE, Stoke City have also suffered eight defeats within their last 11 games in the Championship which has thrust The Potters down into the lower regions of the English second tier table and amongst the relegation candidates.
Four of these eight losses have been inflicted upon Stoke City on their travels as the visitors have been handed defeats at the hands of Sunderland, Blackburn Rovers, Cardiff City and Leeds United respectively, so this upcoming outing to The MKM Stadium may also produce another disappointing afternoon at the office for Stoke City.
Hull City v Stoke City Verdict
Hull City registered a 3-1 win away from home at Stoke City in the earlier corresponding fixture and The Tigers look well placed to grab another three points here on Good Friday as the hosts look to put pressure on the teams above them.
Therefore, our main bet will be Hull City win @ 1.90
Other side bets worth considering:
Hull City win & Under 2.5 goals @ 4.33
Correct Score: Hull City 1-0 @ 7.50
