Bluebirds to win
Hull City have had a fairly decent run of form, having won three of their last seven games; however, it's fair to point out that those wins came on the road. Hull City have actually lost all of their last six home games; they are the worst home team in the Championship, with five wins in 20 home games. On the other hand, we have a Cardiff side that won four of their last six games; they have been a difficult team to beat recently, having lost just once in those six games. Additionally, Cardiff tend to do well against Hull City; they won three of the last five clashes between these sides, losing just once. All things considered, we're predicting a win for Cardiff.
A low scoring match
First of all, we should point out that these teams don't score a lot of goals when they meet; five of their last seven encounters saw less than three goals scored. In the same vein, Hull City have not scored or allowed a lot of goals recently; they failed to score in three of their last six games, whilst keeping four clean sheets in their last seven games. As a result, most of Hull City's games tend to be on the low-scoring side; five of their last six games went below the 2.5 goal mark, with three of those games going under 1.5. On that note, we shouldn't expect too many goals in this match.
