Blackpool vs Hull City Match Analysis and Prediction

Hull City will be travelling to play Blackpool on Saturday, with the hosts looking to improve on their run of five defeats from six matches in the Championship.

Meanwhile, the visitors have seen their latest fixtures postponed due to coronavirus cases, and have failed to win in any of their last three fixtures in the division.

While Blackpool’s recent run of results seem to be keeping them on a downward slide, their performances have deserved more, particularly from their last two fixtures where they have suffered late defeats to Huddersfield Town and Middlesbrough respectively.

While playing 10 men, they held a 2-1 lead at Huddersfield before giving in during the closing stages, and with hopes of getting a draw, they conceded a 93rd-minute winner against Middlesbrough that denied them a point on Wednesday.

Neil Critchley has acknowledged that his team are down to in their form, but such was the level of their display in the midweek that they will be expected to build on it at Bloomfield Road on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Hull City saw their six-match undefeated run come to an end on December 18 when they were defeated 2-1 at Nottingham Forest.

However, Hull City were on the disadvantage of a game-changing penalty decision, the referee seemingly making the wrong decision when the visitors held a 1-0 lead, and the setback has the potential to slow Hull’s momentum as they bid to move further away from the bottom three.

Their bid to overcome that disappointment has been hindered by the amount of coronavirus cases among the team, manager Grant McCann being one of the people who have been forced to isolate. 

While some players and staff are preparing to return at the weekend, it remains to be seen whether the enforced break will benefit or hinder them over the coming weeks.

Blackpool news

The Tangerines are heading into this much without any injury issues, and Neil Critchley may be prepared to stick with the team that played against Middlesbrough.

Shayne Lavery came off the bench and scored at the end of the game, and is likely to earn a starting role for the Saturday’s match.

Hull City news

Hull City will also keep the same squad, but Josh Bowler, Demetri Mitchell and Shayne Lavery are all on standby for the match.

Jordan Lawrence-Gabriel is available after serving a ban for two yellow cards, but he will likely take a place on the substitutes’ bench at the weekend.

Prediction and Odds

Blackpool are heading into this match with a less impressive form at home, which could make them vulnerable.

Despite losing their last away match, Hull City have recently performed well on the road, and could have the confidence against their opponents, and we see the teams sharing a point each.

Odds: 2.10 2.45 2.75
