Southampton vs Hull City Prediction: Both teams are aiming for Premier League

Southampton will welcome Hull City at St. Mary's Stadium in Game Week 29 of the English Championship. Both teams are aiming for premier league in the next season. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

Following the end of their 25-match unbeaten streak at Bristol City, Southampton traveled to The Hawthorns seeking redemption. They easily defeated West Brom, who are likely to finish in the top six. Russell Martin's Saints controlled the game and scored through Ryan Fraser and David Brooks, securing a crucial victory. Despite Leeds United's win at Plymouth Argyle, Southampton is in third place in the league standings and has a game in hand. Adam Armstrong leads the club with 16 goals in the Championship, making him a dangerous forward. Southampton has not lost a home game since October, with Rotherham United being the last team to prevent them from winning at St. Mary's.

Hull are in reach of the top six after Jacob Greaves scored twice to lead them to a 2-1 victory over Huddersfield on Saturday. Greaves secured the win with his second goal in the 94th minute. The Tigers have gained six points in the past week, defeating Rotherham and Huddersfield, thanks to key signings like Fabio Carvalho and Anass Zaroury. With Jaden Philogene in the mix, Hull looks like a more competitive team under Liam Rosenior. Their goal is to return to the Premier League through the playoffs after being in the Football League for seven years. Hull is currently tied on points with Coventry City and Norwich City, and a win at St Mary's could push them into fifth place. Their upcoming matches against top-nine teams will be crucial in determining their success this season.

Southampton displayed a strong performance in their victory over West Brom last time, and we anticipate a similar outcome from the Saints at St Mary's. Hull struggled in their recent matches against Rotherham and Huddersfield, and we doubt that they will be able to secure a third consecutive away win.
