Stoke City are welcoming Hull City for another important game after their 1-1 result against 24th-placed Luton Town.

Stoke City form and stats

7 victories, 3 draws and 8 defeats. That’s what Stoke City have to build on here at Bet365 Stadium in the Championship.

Stoke City manager M. O'Neill and his team return home after a 1-1 draw away versus Luton Town (placed 24th) in the Championship. A 0-0 draw away before that, with Blackburn Rovers the opponent.

The Stoke City fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 24 in 18 matches. Stoke City have conceded 23 in these home matches.

Hull City form and stats

As the visiting team in Championship matches, Hull City have produced an overall stat of 5-5-7 so far. Hull City are desperate to end a ten-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Sheffield Wednesday fixture. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Hull City have lost on their last two travels.

Hull City aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 230 league minutes without a goal. M. Wilks was the last player to find the net.

Home advantage was not enough for Hull City in their previous game, as they lost their Championship-match, hosting Leeds United, 0-4. A loss against Barnsley was the result prior to that, in a home game.

As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Leeds United was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.

The visiting Hull City have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 21 goals from 17 games. 25 goals have been conceded by Hull City in these games.

Head 2 Head

The dueling parties have met before this season: Stoke City - Hull City 5-1. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Stoke City won six games, one match ended with a draw and Hull City has three wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: four / six
