Hull City Form

Hull City return to action on Saturday, seeking to claim successive Championship wins under new head coach Tim Walter as the tough start to the season begins to fade into memory. It is the first time since three draws at the start of the campaign that the Tigers will be looking to back up such a result as they go searching for a four-and-a-half-hour winless streak to end against a Swansea City side that has lost both league fixtures with its new manager at the helm. Winners over the weekend Sheffield United, after dropping down in the table, Hull City has hopped onto a victory this time around with Walter with the team coming out strong against Stoke City. That result has seen them go to 16th position on the Championship table. With the pressure now off, they shall look forward to repeating the show at Saturday.

Cardiff City Form

They will travel to a side that is currently being temporarily run by the management after the dismissal of Erol Bulut at the weekend. Bulut had guided Cardiff City to a finish of 12th place last season, but was himself dismissed at the weekend after the side had sunk to the bottom of the Championship table after losing all of their first six games and taking just one point. They had come close to taking 1-1 from Swansea City as recently as August, but since then, Cardiff City have experienced successive league losses combined with a raft of losses elsewhere. After a 2-0 home reverse to Leeds United, the management at Cardiff City took action in response, appointing Omer Riza on a caretaker basis. Hitting their stride though, after their nerves gave way to that fabulous first half against Birmingham City, the team now hurtles to Yorkshire to emerge victorious in the Championship for the first time since six games failed to do so.

Alnwick; Ng, Chambers, Goutas, Fish; Siopis, Ralls; El Ghazi, Willock, Colwill; Kanga
