Hull City will host Middlesbrough at the MKM Stadium on Tuesday (November 1) night in the Championship. The hosts have struggled this season. After picking up wins over Blackpool and newly promoted Rotherham United, the Tigers find themselves at the wrong end of results. Hull lost 1-0 to Blackburn Rovers last time out, falling behind in the opening 15 minutes and failing to muster a comeback.
Hull are 18th in the Championship table, with just 20 points from 17 games. Meanwhile, Middlesbrough’s poor run of form this season brought about the dismissal of manager Chris Wilder and the appointment of Michael Carrick as the new boss. The Englishman, however, kicked off his reign in the Boro dugout with a 2-1 defeat against Preston North End, seeing his side squander an early lead
Hull City vs Middlesbrough Prediction
Hull’s latest result ended a run of back-to-back wins, marking their third defeat in their last five league games. They have lost five of their last six home games and could struggle here.
Middlesbrough, meanwhile, are on a run of back-to-back winless outings and have won just one of their last five games. They have won just one away game all season but could pick up a point this week.
