Hull vs Blackburn prediction
Semir Jakirovic was a surprise appointment at Hull City in the summer but he has done a good job in charge of the Tigers thus far as they challenge for a top six finish and the playoff places. They have also done that by being quite entertaining to watch, too, with their 25 games having consisted of 78 goals.
Blackburn Rovers have been enduring a major injury crisis in recent weeks and that has left them hovering just above the bottom three and the relegation places in the Championship. They did manage to come from 2-0 down to share a 2-2 draw with Charlton Athletic at Ewood Park last weekend.
Rovers will heavily rotate and rotating from what they have left standing will mean a very weak side and Hull should come out on top quite easily in Yorkshire this weekend.
Hull vs Blackburn tip: Hull to win
