Friday’s FA Cup fourth round action kicks off at the MKM Stadium with Hull City taking on Chelsea. The Tigers have never won the FA Cup, while the Blues have lifted the trophy eight times. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Hull City are featuring in Round 4 of the FA Cup for a second successive season. They booked their spot in this round by defeating Blackburn Rovers on penalties after playing to a goalless draw in R3.
The Tigers suffered an unexpected 3-2 loss to Bristol City in the Championship last weekend, which brought an end to their six-match unbeaten run and saw them slip to fourth in the league standings.
The hosts have a mixed home record of late (W5 D1 L4) in their last 10 across all competitions. They have not beaten Chelsea in their last 13 encounters.
Meanwhile, Chelsea have featured in five FA Cup finals over the last decade and got up and running this season with a comfortable 5-1 victory over Charlton Athletic last month.
The Blues were held to a 2-2 draw by Leeds in the EPL in midweek. That was the first points the team has dropped in the top flight since Liam Rosenior was appointed manager last month.
The visitors have won four of their last five away games in all competitions, and also won their last four at this venue, scoring two or more goals in each of those victories.
