Hull vs Swansea prediction: ENGLAND: Championship betting tips on match 2023-04-28 14:00.
Hull wasted no time in bouncing back from their 3-1 defeat at Middlesbrough by ending Watfordâs faint promotion hopes with a 1-0 win in the previous round. Manager Liam Rosenior praised his side for âshowing a different sideâ to their game to get the win, and with just one defeat across the last seven rounds (W2, D4, L1), the Tigers look to be building solid foundations ahead of a possible push for promotion next season.
Another game at the MKM Stadium will be a boost for Hull, who have kept clean sheets in all but one of their last eight games here, and the exception to that streak was a 3-1 defeat against the already-promoted Burnley! A similar level of dominance can also be seen when Swansea provide the opposition, with the Tigers mauling the Swans in five of the last six home H2Hs (W5, D1).
Much like their hosts, Russell Martinâs Swansea are laying the foundations for next season with an incredible run of results (W6, D1), although that streak is sure to leave them with a sense of âwhat could have beenâ at the end of the campaign with the play-offs likely to be just out of their reach. The boss lamented that he wished the season was âtwo or three games longerâ following their stunning 3-0 win over Norwich, so he may just have to settle for a glut of confidence-boosting results ahead of pre-season.
Playing away from home hasnât fazed the Swans of late, as theyâve put together an incredible three-game winning run which includes a run of over three hours since their last conceded goal! Taking the giant step to a fourth consecutive Championship away win will be no mean feat, with the visitors failing to put together such a streak at this level since 2010!
Players to watch: Allahyar Sayyadmanesh has announced himself to the Hull faithful in recent weeks by registering three of his five goal contributions since moving to England across the last five rounds (G2, A1). Full-back Ryan Manning is never far from the action when Swansea play, registering four yellow cards, two goals, and three assists across the last eight rounds!
Hot stat: Swansea have failed to win five of their seven away league games as pre-match favourites this season (W2, D3, L2).
