Hull City Preview – Can Hull buck trend?
League One leaders, Hull City, will be itching to return to winning ways on Friday night when they entertain 2nd placed Portsmouth in League One’s fixture of the weekend at the KCOM Stadium following a 1-1 draw with Oxford United and back-to-back losses against Shrewsbury Town and Blackpool.
Hull had previously put together an impressive four-match winning streak in the third tier which included victories over Burton Albion, MK Dons, Ipswich Town and Doncaster Rovers which had lifted The Tigers to the top of the division.
Form and results overall at home in League One have been pretty steady for Hull who have lost just three of their last 27 matches, but their recent defeats along with the visit of Portsmouth may see the hosts settle for a point here.
Portsmouth Preview – Can Portsmouth extend unbeaten run?
Friday night’s visitors, Portsmouth, bring a three-match unbeaten run into this vital clash at the top of League One on Humberside following back-to-back wins against Peterborough United and Ipswich Town along with a 0-0 draw at home with Fleetwood Town.
This improved run of results has helped Kenny Jackett’s side up into 2nd spot ahead of this weekend’s action and the south coast club will be keen to get something out of this long trip up north as they’ve lost just one of their last eight matches overall.
Portsmouth’s fortunes have also improved away from home too this season as they’ve lost just once on the road so far which was at Blackpool, but wins at Burton Albion, Gillingham, Sunderland, Lincoln City and Ipswich Town have shown that Pompey are no pushovers on the road.
