West Ham United vs Hull City Predictions

• West Ham won only six of their 19 Premier League home fixtures last season
• Hull have suffered only one defeat in their last five competitive fixtures
• Both teams scored in 12 of West Ham’s 19 home league matches in 2019-20

Hammers could come unstuck against Tigers

Hull City knocked out new Premier League side Leeds United in the previous round of the EFL Cup and they could claim another top-flight scalp in the form of West Ham.

The Tigers beat Leeds on penalties at Elland Road but won the shot count 18-8 in the match itself and have made a strong start to life in England’s third tier, winning to nil against Gillingham and Crewe.

West Ham could be feeling a touch deflated after their last-gasp defeat to Arsenal last time out, which meant they have lost their opening two Premier League games this campaign.

Even with fans in the stands, the Hammers struggled on home soil in the league last term, losing nine of their 19 league fixtures at the London Stadium in 2019-20.

Hull are worth backing in the double chance market and we predict a correct score of 1-1 – a scoreline which featured in both of West Ham’s final two league matches last term.
