In-form Hull City plays host to Stoke City on New Year’s Day in the 25th round in the Championship. The two sides seek to push their promotion agenda, with Hull sitting fourth, six places ahead of Stoke. We have a prediction for the match below.
A fine run in the past five matchdays has lifted Hull City to within 10 points of the league leaders, Coventry. The Tigers have been gaining steam and are coming from a key victory.
They claimed a 1-0 away win at Middlesbrough last weekend, lifting them to 41 points. That was their fourth triumph in five league games, making them the best-performing side across those rounds.
Meanwhile, Stoke City have been one of the weakest, with just one win in their last five outings. For a side that at one point looked like a serious top-six contender, they have really dropped.
Here they are coming off a 2-1 home loss to Sheffield United. That was their 10th league loss of the season, leaving them on 34 points. No other team has lost as much in the top 15.
It gets worse seeing that they have only managed 14 points on the road. The Potters have suffered four straight away losses.
Perhaps some consolation will come from the fact that Stoke have won in each of their last four visits here.
