Team News

Hull
Bristol City
  • Winger Dogukan Sinik and goalkeeper Harvey Cartwright are both confirmed absentees, while full-back Lewie Coyle is a doubt.
  • Tim Walter is set to line his team up in a 4-3-3 system with the main area of contention coming at left-back, where Matty Jacob and Ryan Giles are both hoping to start.
  • Bristol City will start in a 3-4-3 formation on Saturday, but the right wing-back slot remains up for grabs with Sam Bell and Mark Sykes both options.
  • New signing Yu Hirakawa is joined by Rob Atkinson and Ross McCrorie on the Bristol City injury list ahead of the trip to the MKM Stadium.

Prediction

  • Hull City will look very different on the pitch this season following the appointment of Tim Walter.
  • The former Hamburg boss is known for his gung-ho style of play, and with plenty of funds in the bank after the sales of Jacob Greaves and Jaden Philogene, the money is there for him to build a new unit.
  • Bristol City showed promise without much consistency during Liam Manning's time in charge last season, but with a full summer of preparation in the bank and some smart new additions, the Robins have the chance to kick on in 2024/25.
  • The visitors have lost just one of their last 12 competitive games against Hull heading into this fixture.

  • Good on Hull, I thought I had this but they got the draw

  • Early on Hull don’t seem to click and Bristol.are good starters. Overall it will take a smart midfield battle to determine the winner here but I see Bristol knicking it
