Hull City Preview – Tigers to seal an eighth league victory?
Hull City, who are one of the title favourites, have started this season with seven wins from their opening ten League One matches. However, after kicking off the season with four straight victories, the Tigers have been in patchy form of late, winning three and losing three of their last six in League One.
In their last league game, Hull were beaten 2-1 at Swindon Town, which was their second reverse in three league matches. However, they have since secured back-to-back cup victories. Before beating Harrogate Town 2-0 on the road in the Football League Trophy, Grant McCann’s boys saw off Fleetwood Town by the same scoreline in the Emirates FA Cup.
Hull are sitting pretty in fifth place at present, just four points behind leaders Peterborough United. After a wobbly spell, the Tigers will be looking to get back to winning ways in the league this weekend after two cup successes.
Burton Albion Preview – Brewers’ winless run set to continue?
Jake Buxton’s Burton Albion have had a miserable season so far. The Brewers are currently second from bottom in the League One table, taking a mere seven points from 11 games. Burton have won just one league fixture this term.
Albion beat Accrington Stanley 2-1 at the Pirelli Stadium on matchday two, which remains their one and only league victory of the campaign. Since then, Buxton’s boys have taken just four points from a possible 27, drawing four and losing five. However, three of those draws have come in their previous four.
