Two EFL Championship sides, Hull City and Blackburn Rovers, are set to lock horns at MKM Stadium in the FA Cup third round. This marks the sixth meeting between these two sides in this competition. Here's our match prediction.
Hull City are performing well in the 2025-26 EFL Championship season. The bar has been set high as they have their sights set on the promotion spots. With 41 points accumulated from 25 games, they occupy seventh place and are three points behind third-placed Ipswich Town.
A 1-0 away defeat to promotion-chasing Stoke City ended a five-match unbeaten run, comprising four wins and a solitary draw.
The Tigers now turn their attention to the FA Cup third round. However, it hasn't been a great display with the team falling short in each of their last four editions at this stage.
Blackburn Rovers are languishing in the bottom five of the EFL Championship standings. They have maintained a four-point cushion over the red dotted line. Their recent league game ended in a thrilling 2-2 draw against Charlton Athletic.
Regarding the FA Cup, the Blue and Whites have progressed beyond the third round in each of the last four seasons. Their best run during this period was reaching the quarter-finals for the first time since the 2006-07 edition.
Unfortunately, they were eliminated by fellow Championship side Sheffield United in a 3-2 defeat.
