Hull vs Chelsea prediction
Hull City have been one of the most entertaining teams to watch in the Championship with their 31 matches having consisted of 93 goals after their 3-2 defeat at home to Bristol City the other day. Under the management of Semir Jakirovic, they remain tucked inside the top six and are on the push for potential automatic promotion.
They now face a Chelsea side that stumbled the other day as they succumbed to a 2-2 draw with a battling Leeds United side at Stamford Bridge, having been 2-0 up mid-way through the second-half. The Blues have suffered just two defeats, both against Arsenal, in the ten matches across all competitions since Liam Rosenior’s appointment.
Chelsea will heavily rotate once again this week and, even though they remain favourites, Hull will absolutely fancy themselves to bloody the Blues’ nose.
