Competition: Championship

Market: Hull City win

Odds: 4/3 @ Pribet

Looking to move within touching distance of the automatic promotion spots on Tuesday night, Hull will welcome Watford to the MKM Stadium.

Starting with the hosts, only just dragging themselves over the finishing line last season as they clung to their Championship status, Hull have certainly cemented their spot as one of England’s ultimate surprise packages this time around. Shattering a string of records this season and rightfully receiving a string of plaudits from across the country, Sergej Jakirovic’s men have skyrocketed their way up the table and find the mood in their camp at a red-hot high. Last seen putting in another gritty performance as they secured a 1-0 win away at Blackburn, the Tigers can remarkably move within touching distance of the automatic promotion spots on Tuesday night. Riding an iconic wave of momentum, Hull now have their sights set on booking a famous Premier League return in 2026. In fact, Jakirovic’s side have astonishingly won all of their previous five consecutive appearances across all competitions and they should be smelling the chance to make another statement in Yorkshire.

As for the visitors, watching Javi Gracia leave Vicarage Road for a second time over the weekend, Watford suddenly find themselves at the heart of a public crisis. Free-falling down the Championship standings and watching their outside play-off dreams take a major blow, the Hornets should be bracing themselves for another stern examination when they travel to the MKM Stadium on Tuesday night. Last seen on Saturday afternoon falling to a disappointing 2-0 loss at home against Swansea, Watford have now failed to win any of their previous five appearances across all competitions. Watching their FA Cup adventure come to a nightmare end on January 10th as they slumped to a 5-1 drumming at the hands of Bristol City, the Hornets are pencilled in as a real underdog contender in midweek. Given what has been a huge recent gulf in class between Tuesday’s opponents, a home victory in Yorkshire can be found at appealing odds here.
