Hull City form and stats

Hull City's first Championship home game here at KCOM Stadium ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 14 wins, 4 draws and 5 defeats from 23 matches.

The Hull City crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-3 to Queens Park Rangers here at KCOM Stadium in a Championship match. Attacking player Josh Magennis bested all teammates in that game and got a match rating of 7.0 out of 10. Magennis dribled passed the opponent 2 of 3 times.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a Carabao Cup home game that ended 1-1 versus Wigan Athletic (after extra-time, 7-8 on penalties).

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Hull handle that role? We have found 13 games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The stats for these games are eight wins, three draws and two defeats.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Hull City as they are travelling to their away game against Fulham in the Championship. That match is three days after this one.

Early season league goal statistics from Hull City's 1 home game: 0 goals, 3 conceded.

Derby County form and stats

Derby County have played one away game so far, a loss. Last season their away games stats in the Championship were 5 victories, 4 draws and 14 defeats from 23 fixtures.

County play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Peterborough United (placed 15th). Graeme Shinnie got a match rating of 6.92 in that game, top player of the team. Shinnie dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 49 successful passes (of 53 total). Late heartbreak for County in the Peterborough United match, as the deciding 1-2 goal came deep into overtime.

A 3-3 draw was the result before that, hosting Salford City (after extra-time, 5-3 on penalties) in the Carabao Cup.

We have checked recent matches where County have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 14 games were two victories, three draws and nine defeats.

After this away game County return home for a Championship game against Middlesbrough. That game is only three sleeps after this.

It's early days yet, but Derby County has scored 1 and conceded 2 goals from their travels in the league so far (1 game).

Head 2 Head

Statistics for the former ten meetings involving these two contenders are: two wins for Hull, one draw and seven wins for Derby County. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.
