England - Premier League: Hull vs Everton Hull climbed out of the relegation zone with a couple of very good results and the Tigers are set to play the third successive home game when they host Everton. The Toffees were powerless to resist United at the weekend but this is a game they definitely can win.
More than 50 years without a win over Everton
Hull City aim to continue their four-match home unbeaten run when they host the Toffees, but they will not have an easy job. The Tigers manage to overturn a two-goal deficit against West Ham at the weekend but couldn’t hold on to the lead after Bernard Mendy was sent off and had to settle for a draw. Phil Brown’s side have considerably improved in the scoring department, bagging 7 goals in last 4 home games and you should really consider backing Hull to score at 1.36 offered by Sportingbet.
Phil Brown doesn’t have too many selection problems, although he is missing Olofinjana and Mendy through injury and suspension respectively. Keeper Boaz Myhill remains injury doubt, whereas Ian Ashbee is a long-term absentee. The Tigers are sitting just one point above the relegation zone and in order to stay there they have to win this game. This is a good time to be facing Everton as they are bound to come good very soon and the hosts are looking to take advantage of the current situation.
No signs of improvement
Despite playing way below expectations, Everton remain in the middle of the table and with a win over Hull they would be just few points short of the European places. This is why the Toffees need to be thinking positive as this season isn’t lost just yet. David Moyes’s side are obviously struggling to cope with the numerous absentees but they have to find a way to up their game. The Toffees will be looking to win this match and seeing they scored at least two goals in last three meetings with Hull, our advice is to back Everton to score over 1.5 goals at odds of 2.20 offered by Boylesports.
On top of all injury problems, David Moyes will be missing Fellaini and Bilyaletdinov through suspension, and they join Anichebe, Arteta, Jagielka, Neville and Vaughan on the list of unavailable players. Leon Osman remains injury doubt, while Steven Peinaar has started training but is unlikely to be risked with the Merseyside derby just around the corner. With both sides eager to boost their Premiership campaign with a win, we see a good value in backing both teams to score at 1.80 offered by William Hill.
Betting verdict
Hull have raised their form lately but they still don’t look like the team capable of beating teams from the top part of the table. Everton are a top table team even though the current league position would disagree and we believe they can win this game and thus kick-start the season.
