Despite picking up just one win from their last four attempts in the Championship, Saturday afternoon’s hosts, Hull City, still hold a place in the play-off pack with Sergej Jakirović’s side sitting in 5th place but The Tigers will know they must not spurn this excellent opportunity to pick up all three points against down-and-out Sheffield Wednesday.
A recent impressive 2-1 win away from home at Wrexham has been overshadowed by losses at the hands of Ipswich Town, Millwall and West Brom in 1-0, 3-1 and 3-0 defeats respectively while an overall home record of 9-3-7 29/31 requires further improvement from The Tigers.
Hull City will be desperate to hold onto their top six spot though in the Championship table and although they were held to a 2-2 draw in the earlier corresponding fixture against Sheffield Wednesday, The Tigers look the more likely here.
Sheffield Wednesday have nothing left to play for but pride as The Owls sit bottom of the Championship table and have already been relegated from the second tier with 10 league matches left to play.
With just one win under their belts so far this season and a crippling financial background to deal with, the visitors had to bid farewell to talismanic midfielder Barry Bannan in order to attempt to balance the books, while manager Henrik Pedersen has had a thankless task in rallying the troops.
A demoralising 32-game winless run in the Championship therefore looks likely to be further compounded by Hull City on Saturday afternoon especially as The Owls have lost 13 of their 18 outings on the road this term.
The Betting Verdict
Hull City should have no problems with incentive to win here while goals also look likely.
The Pick :
Hull City 3-1 Sheffield Weds
