Hull City VS Sunderland- Match Preview & Prediction
Preview
The Black Cats travel down to the MKM Stadium to face a struggling Hull City side as they hope to bounce back after a disappointing defeat against West Brom on Monday night.
The Tigers have won just one of their last 5 games in the league, most recently drawing 0-0 away to Watford last weekend.
Sunderland have won three of their last five, but they will be hoping to improve on such a lacklustre performance last time out.
Hull striker Oscar Estupiñán has been their main man this season with 8 goals in 20 appearances, making him their top scorer.
He has been slightly out of form as of late, but he really showed his quality in the early stages of the season, winning the August Player of The Month.
The Tigers will be weary of coming up against Manchester United loanee, Amad Diallo who has been in fantastic form since his arrival.
Mowbray confirmed that Dan Ballard and Ross Stewart could feature on Saturday, but Edouard Michut probably won’t be risked.
Bailey Wright and Jewison Bennette are both recovering after their participation in this year’s World Cup Finals.
The Black Cats could move as high as 7th with a win and Hull could go as high as 16th as they try to steer away from relegation.
Prediction
Hull City 0-1 Sunderland
Scorer – Jack Clarke
