Hull City Form

Once playoff contenders, the Tigers have endured a dismal season, with just three wins from 21 matches.

Their new manager, Ruben Selles, has overseen a 1-1 draw with Watford and a 2-1 loss to Coventry since taking charge, but the pressure is mounting to deliver a much-needed victory.

Swansea City Form

Swansea sit comfortably in 10th place but will be eager to bounce back after a disappointing 3-2 home defeat to Sunderland last weekend.

After their slip-up, the Swans have shown resilience in recent weeks, climbing from 17th to 10th in the table since November, thanks to improved performances both at home and on the road.

Hull v Swansea Team News

In terms of team news, Hull remain plagued by injuries, with Andy Smith (leg), Harvey Cartwright (hand), Carl Rushworth (ankle), and Mohamed Belloumi and Liam Millar (both knee) all unavailable.

Forward Mason Burstow could feature more prominently after coming on as a substitute against Coventry. Swansea also have their share of absentees, including Oliver Cooper (foot), Sam Parker (hamstring), Andy Fisher (groin), and Josh Ginnelly (muscle strain), while veteran midfielder Joe Allen is still sidelined.

Hull v Swansea Prediction

Hull’s struggles are reflected in the stats: they are winless in their last 13 matches, scoring fewer than two goals in each.

Six of their last seven home games have also featured fewer than three goals. Swansea have scored two or more goals in five of their last six matches, with four of their last five wins coming by a 2-1 scoreline.

Swansea’s recent form and solid away performances give them the edge in this encounter.

The Swans have taken seven points from their last three road trips and will face a Hull side that hasn’t won since October 1st.

After taking the lead in both of their last two matches, Hull have struggled to close out games, a pattern likely to continue against an in-form Swansea team.

Expect the visitors to capitalize on Hull’s defensive woes and secure a vital win before the holiday break.
