Hull to Win
Hull were beaten 3-1 at highflying Middlesbrough on Wednesday evening, though the Tigers are generally more fearsome at The MKM Stadium, and we’re tipping them to bounce straight back there against Watford on Saturday. Hull have lost just one of their last ten assignments on home soil, and that was to champions-elect Burnley, while Watford have been toppled in three of their last four away tussles. Everything seems set up for another positive afternoon for City and our opening Hull vs Watford prediction backs the Tigers to prevail.
Under 2.5 Goals
While Hull are adept at pocketing points at home, the Tigers could never be described as prolific and as a result, many of their matches at The MKM Stadium have been low on action. Indeed, 80% of their last ten games there have featured under 2.5 goals and a similar outcome looks possible on Saturday. Four of Watford’s last five away fixtures have also produced two or fewer goals, so expect margins to be thin in Hull this weekend.

Hull vs Watford Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates, Hull vs Watford lineups and team news for Saturday’s Championship fixture below.
Hull
Hull have several injury issues to contend with at present with Aaron Connolly, Oscar Estupinan, Cyrus Christie, Benjamin Tetteh, Nathan Baxter and Vaugh Covil all sidelined. Hull lost at Middlesbrough in midweek, though they probably expected a tough time there. The Tigers look set for a safe mid-table finish regardless.
Predicted Lineup for Hull: Darlow – Coyle, McLaughlin, Greaves, Elder – Sayyadmanesh, Seri, Slater, Pelkas – Traore, Vaughan
Watford
Watford could be a lengthy list of players this week including Britt Assoumbalonga, Tom Cleverley, Francisco Sierralta, Edo Kayembe, Kortney Hause, Tom Dele-Bashiru and Dan Gosling. The Hornets were left embarrassed by a 3-1 loss at home to Cardiff on Wednesday evening.
Predicted Lineup for Watford: Bachmann – Andrews, Porteous, Hoedt, Kamara – Kone, Sarr, Choudhury, Louza, Pedro – Davis
Player to Watch – Regan Slater
Regan Slater was among Hull’s most-threatening players when the Tigers drew 0-0 with Watford in December and the 23-year-old winger could be one to watch again in Saturday’s rematch. Slater has notched five goals and four assists in the Championship this season overall.
