Hull City entertain Coventry City in the Championship on Friday evening, the hosts in with a chance of moving level on points with current leaders Preston North End.
Far from satisfactory
Hull City’s start to the season was far from satisfactory with defeats in each of their opening two outings, this including a loss to Doncaster Rovers in the League Cup and manager Liam Rosenior will have been concerned with the trajectory of his side. Nevertheless they have bounced back from that disappointing start with ten points from their last four league games thanks to wins over Leicester City, Blackburn Rovers and Sheffield Wednesday. A 1-1 draw with Bristol City was disappointing but the fact remains that the Tigers can go level on points with Preston North End (who aren’t in action until Saturday afternoon) should they beat Coventry City on Friday evening.
Spoils shared
Coventry City find themselves sitting down in 14th position in the Championship table despite the fact that they have lost just once whilst in league action this term. The Sky Blues lost to Midlands rivals Leicester City in their season opener but bounced back with a comprehensive 3-0 win over Middlesbrough although since then they have been forced to share the spoils in their last three outings. With his side already four points adrift from Hull City, Coventry boss Mark Robins will be eager to lift his side back into contention at a time during which no second-tier side has managed a 100% perfect record from their opening five matches.
Tight and competitive
Despite the two sides occupying completely differing league positions, we envisage this being a very tight and competitive meeting. Hull City will have been boosted in confidence following their win over Leicester City but we’re going to back the visitors to get their campaign back on track by taking all three points in East Yorkshire on Friday evening.
