EFL Championship
Our Three Predictions For Stoke City vs Hull City
- Prediction 1 – Divin Mubama To Score – 8/5
- Prediction 2 – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 10/13
- Prediction 3 – Stoke City To Win – 6/4
First Prediction For Stoke City vs Hull City – Divin Mubama To Score – 8/5
Earning a rest against Charlton Athletic in midweek, Mubama is very likely to get his second start since the international break following a fairly run of the mill performance from backup forward Robert Bozenik. With wingers Sorba Thomas and Million Manhoef delivering in midweek, just 2 minutes was all Mark Robins asked the former West Ham striker for.
He has shown moments of class in his first full season of senior football on loan from Manchester City, and trails only Thomas for goals at the Potters this season. He has generated 4.91 xG so far this season, putting him in the top 15% of Championship forwards. Joe Gelhardt or his teammates might be the more likely scorers, but the Potters number 9 should be in the mix.
Second Prediction For Stoke City vs Hull City – Over 2.5 Goals Scored – 10/13
Only Coventry City have scored more goals than Hull City this season, highlighting the massive turnaround they have done over the summer despite restrictions. The Tigers have 28 goals to their name, level with Ipswich Town, and are in the top 6 for xG created.
Stoke sit only slightly behind Hull on both metrics, and boast one of the more exciting attacking lines in Manhoef, Thomas and Lewis Baker. With this game having plenty of the Championship’s best players going forward, there should be a few goals in this match.
Third Prediction For Stoke City vs Hull City – Stoke City To Win – 6/4
However, there might not be too many goals for Hull, which is the leading reason why Stoke should secure a 10th win of the season. The Potters have the best defensive record in the division, conceding just 12 goals so far this campaign, 4 goals ahead of the next side in Ipswich Town and Viktor Johansson leading the Golden Glove race.
As seen with their loss to the Tractor Boys over midweek, Hull can struggle at times to deliver in front of goal, but their issues which has seen them slip in the playoff chase has been at the back, with 9 goals conceded in their last 5 games. With those issues and Stoke still firing on all cylinders, Mark Robins’ side can give themselves a further 3 points.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head-To-Head
Stoke City put themselves back into the top 2 of the Championship last night with a cohesive victory over Charlton Athletic, jumping Middlesbrough after their loss to league leaders Coventry at the Riverside. A Sorba Thomas double and a Million Manhoef goal saw Nathan Jones’ side come unstuck, undoing some of the damage from their losses either side of the international break.
With a league-leading defence and goalkeeper in Viktor Johansson, Mark Robins side made themselves hard to beat for much of the campaign, and will be set to become the 2nd side to reach 10 or more victories with a win over Hull. Lewis Baker will be the only absence as he recovers from an ankle injury.
Hull City have had a major uptick in performance since Sergej Jakirovic’s takeover in East Yorkshire, giving cause for optimism. The Tigers enter the weekend in the top half of the table, with their position likely to change heading into Wednesday night’s fixtures.
Spearheaded by Joe Gelhardt, City have scored more goals than any other team except runaway league leaders Coventry City, and have averaged nearly 2 goals a game across their last 5 Championship fixtures. John Lundstram could be in line for a delayed return to the lineup from injury, while Oli McBurnie remains short of full fitness.
Contesting fixtures in the Premier League as far back as 2013, these sides have been regular opponents and have played each other at least once a year since then. Stoke hold the overall advantage, winning 11 of the 19 games since that period. The away side won the match in both fixtures last season.
