Bristol City vs Hull City: Prediction

Despite being on a poor run of form and struggling in the Premier League, Hull City are slight favourites in this game. Considering their recent games against each other, coupled with the fact they are playing in English top league.

However, Hull will have the chance of knowing what a victory tastes like, as they haven’t won any game since 24th of September. The game will be a tough one, but Hull will have themselves to blame if they fail to win this one.
