Hull City AFC vs Swansea City AFC Prediction: Hull City to win

Luke Williams' quest for his first Championship triumph as Swansea City manager will resume on Saturday when his team travels to Hull City. After three straight losses, the Swans have dropped to 17th place in the Championship standings. The hosts, who are presently sixth, will look to boost their playoff bid.

Hull City, who have added to an amazing season with a welcome return to form in recent weeks, will be looking to strengthen their ambitions of making the Championship playoffs when they return to the MKM Stadium on Saturday. Liam Rosenior's team has played 29 games so far this season. They have amassed 45 points, with 13 victories and 10 losses. Four of those losses occurred in a five-match stretch in late December and early January, hurting their chances of finishing in the top six as they were defeated by Bristol City, Sunderland, Sheffield Wednesday, and Norwich City.

Opposing them is a visiting team hoping to break out from a slump under Luke Williams, after Swansea City has had a difficult season thus far. After Michael Duff left and Alan Sheehan took over as temporary manager, Luke Williams took over in South Wales with the Swans sitting at 32 points from 26 games, but he hasn't been able to spur them on to any better results yet.

Hull City AFC

Hull has played 15 Championship games at home this season with seven wins, four draws, and four defeats. Swansea's away record in league games this season is four wins, four draws, and seven defeats. The Swans will be looking to snap a five-game losing record on the road (0 Wins, 0 Draws, 3 Losses 2). They last triumphed on the road at Rotherham United in December 2023. With 45 points, Hull City is in sixth position, 16 points behind the promotion-bound Southampton in second place. A point adrift of the Tigers is seventh-place Coventry City, the first team outside of the play-off places. Hull defeated Millwall 1-0 at home in their most recent Championship game. Liam Delap, Philogene, and Aaron Connolly have all been invaluable to Hull.

Swansea City AFC

Having trouble when Swansea City plays Hull City on Saturday at The MKM Stadium, they have not won in four straight Championship games. Swansea has defeated Hull in their past three Championship games, going win-one, draw-two, lose-one.

The Swans' winning run has seen them outscore the Tigers 6-3. With six, six, and five goals apiece, Jamal Lowe, Yates, and Paterson have led Swansea, the visiting team.

In their previous six games, Swansea has won one, drawn two, and lost three.

Expert Betting Tips

Hull had only won one of their previous seven games before going on a run of back-to-back wins. They hope for a good outcome this weekend since they have only lost one of their past four home games in all competitions.

Swansea has only won two of their past nine games in all competitions, and they are now on a four-game losing streak. They might lose this one given they have lost their past six away games. 

We can only envision a home victory this weekend as Rosenior's team looks to further solidify their position in the top six. Swansea City is still struggling under Williams, while Hull City is picking up steam with a wealth of talent in their squad, especially going forward.
