Middlesbrough FC - Hull City AFC betting tip & best odds | 30.11.2024

Middlesbrough FC will take on Hull City in an exciting Championship clash on Saturday, November 30, 2024, at the Riverside Stadium. Scheduled to kick off at 13:30, this match marks Matchday 18 of the Championship season. Middlesbrough currently sits in 7th place on the table with 24 points from 15 matches, while Hull City finds itself in 19th place, having gathered 15 points from the same number of games. This matchup promises to be crucial for both teams as they look to solidify their standings in the league.

Our Betting Predictions

For today’s football prediction, we suggest keeping an eye on the home team, Middlesbrough FC. Our first betting tip is a home win (1). Middlesbrough has shown solid form recently, with three wins, one draw, and just one defeat in their last five matches across all competitions. Their most recent performance was an emphatic 5-1 victory against Luton Town, which not only boosted their confidence but also showcased their attacking prowess. Given their current standing and home advantage, they are favored to secure all three points against Hull City.

Our second betting tip revolves around the “Both teams to score?” market, and we lean towards a No. While Middlesbrough has been prolific in front of goal, scoring 23 goals this season, they have also demonstrated a strong defensive setup, conceding only 17 goals. Hull City, on the other hand, has struggled offensively, netting only 16 goals while allowing 20. Given these statistics, it seems plausible that Middlesbrough could win without Hull City finding the net.

Current Form of Middlesbrough FC

Middlesbrough FC, under the guidance of coach Michael Carrick, has been performing admirably this season. With 24 points, they currently occupy the 7th position in the Championship table. Their recent form has been impressive, with three victories, one draw, and a single defeat in their last five matches. They currently boast a home record of 4 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses, indicating a strong fortress at Riverside Stadium.

Their last outing was particularly memorable, as they triumphed over Luton Town with a staggering 5-1 scoreline. This victory not only showcased their offensive capabilities but also boosted their morale significantly. Middlesbrough has scored 23 goals this season while conceding just 17, reflecting a balanced approach that combines solid defense with an attacking flair.

How is Hull City Currently Doing?

Hull City, managed by Tim Laszlo Walter, is experiencing a challenging season, currently sitting in 19th place with 15 points. The team's form has been disappointing, with no wins in their last five matches—recording three draws and two losses. Their most recent match ended in a 1-2 defeat against West Bromwich Albion, which further adds to their woes.

Hull's away record is also a cause for concern, with only 2 wins, 2 draws, and 3 losses in their travels. They have scored 16 goals this season but have also conceded 20, indicating defensive vulnerabilities that could be exploited by a confident Middlesbrough side. The lack of a recent victory will undoubtedly weigh on the players as they head into this challenging matchup.

The Last Direct Duels

Looking back at the head-to-head record in recent meetings, the last five encounters between Middlesbrough and Hull City have yielded a mixed bag of results. Middlesbrough has secured 2 wins, while Hull City has also claimed 2 victories, with one match ending in a draw. Notably, their last two Championship meetings both ended in 2-2 draws, highlighting the competitive nature of these fixtures. However, given the current form of both teams, Middlesbrough will be looking to break this trend and assert their dominance at home.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Middlesbrough FC enters this match as the clear favorite, bolstered by their recent performances and strong home record. Hull City, struggling for form, faces a daunting task at Riverside Stadium. With Middlesbrough's attacking firepower and solid defense, the expectation is for them to secure a convincing win. Our predictions suggest a home victory, with a likelihood that Hull City may struggle to find the back of the net.
