Bookmaker Ratings prediction one: Draw No Bet – Swansea – 2.10
Bookmaker Ratings prediction two: Both Teams to Score – NO – 1.95
Swansea Draw No Bet
With the insurance that ‘DNB’ provides, the visitors are the ones to side with here. They’ve picked up positive results away against stronger sides that Hull of late, drawing against both QPR and Huddersfield, both of whom currently reside inside the top six. Moreover, they arrive here in strong defensive shape having shipped just one goal in their last three fixtures.
Both Teams to Score – NO
A bet on the goals not to go in for both also appeals ahead of this fixture. Neither side has been prolific in terms of ‘BTTS’ this season, with both teams scoring in just 48% of Swansea’s Championship fixtures. Only 30% of Hull’s games have yielded a goal for both teams, meaning that they’ve scored and conceded in the same game less times than any other team in the division. Such stats point towards odds of 1.95 being slightly generous.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Hull City vs Swansea City
After a poor run of three successive losses, the Hull boys have got their acts together, winning two straight, beating both Blackburn and Bournemouth. Back-to-back wins is positive news regardless, but beating two of the best teams in the division is particularly positive. The Tigers ought to be feeling upbeat after such encouraging results.
Manager Grant McCann has left for pastures new, so it will be interesting to see what impact that has on a side that had clearly done something right over the past few weeks. General home form of late should encourage Tigers fans, who’ve seen their side win three, draw one and lose one of their last five at MKM. That said, their overall form at home this season hasn’t exactly been anything to shout about. Only two Championship teams have picked up less home points than Hull City.
The Swans also come into this fixture in relatively strong form. They’ve lost none of their last three, picking up five points. There were positives to be taken from their draw away against play-off chasers Huddersfield, while much the same can be said for their recent draw away against a very useful QPR side that currently occupies fourth position. One goal conceded in three matches is particularly impressive.
In truth, there’s no reason why the visitors shouldn’t fancy themselves here. Their away record is barely worse than Hull’s home record, while there really was lots to like about the way they picked up some excellent results on the road against top sides recently.
Quick Rich
If you’re looking for something with a bit of juice in the price, then don’t shy away from Joel Piroe in the ‘Anytime Scorer’ market. Swansea’s main man, who averages 0.55 goals per 90 minutes, certainly knows how to find the net, while he’s not one to shy away from efforts at goal, averaging 2.93 shots per 90 minutes.
