Hull will play Aston Villa in the third round of the Premier League on September 5. The hosts became one of the discoveries in the Premier League at the start, scoring the maximum six points in two games. Taking into account all the tournaments, the Lions lost in five matches in a row. We are looking into the betting tip, whether there are chances for Birmingham residents to break the series of failures and which reliable bets to choose
Command Analysis
Hull City
Current form
Hull has a modest squad by Premier League standards, but that didn't stop them from scoring six points in two rounds. Sergei Yakirovich's team beat Manchester United (2-0) on home turf and defeated Coventry 1-0 on the road. Between these matches, Stoke City also went through a penalty shootout in the League Cup. The key to success is an intense defense, playing strictly second on the counterattack. As long as such straightforward tactics are successful, Hull is unlikely to risk playing in any other way, and there are no reserves for a bolder and more open game.
Disqualifications and injuries
Butland, Gelhardt, Giabi, Hughes, Matazo, Yacob and Zambrano are injured, Crooks is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
There has been no goal exchange in four of Hull's last five matches.
In three of Hull's previous five matches, a draw was recorded in the first half.
Aston Villa is completely failing at the start of the season, and there was a similar situation a year ago, when Birmingham were in the relegation zone for a while. Unai Emery's team first lost to PSG (1:2) in the UEFA Super Cup game, and then lost to Brighton (0:4) and Arsenal (0:1) in the opening two rounds of the Premier League. It is impossible not to note the complete inaction of the attack: not a single shot on goal in the two opening rounds. Aston Villa's offensive line was left without Rodgers, Watkins and Thielemans, plus Manzambi and Maggio were injured. They signed Nicholas Johnson and bought out Mbye's transfer, but so far these players are clearly only fitting into Unai Emery's tactical schemes.
Disqualifications and injuries
Onana, Manzambi and Maggio will not play due to injuries, and Joao Gomes will serve a suspension.
Interesting betting trends
Aston Villa's losing streak has reached the five-match mark
In eight of the ten previous matches involving Aston Villa, more than two offsides were recorded.
Hull plays strictly defensively, closes in on their own goal, and gives the ball completely to their opponents. Due to this tactic, Yakirovich's team achieved victories over Manchester United and Coventry without conceding a single goal. Obviously, the hosts will not change their usual tactics today.
Aston Villa lost key attacking players and in the opening two mornings not only did not score a single goal, but there was not a single shot on target. The Birmingham newcomers will still have to play, adjust to the tactical schemes of Unai Emery. Given the current state of affairs, it is logical to place a bet on the total number of goals scored in the upcoming match.
Our betting tip is a total of less than 2.5 goals for a coefficient of 1.92
The closed manner of the game gives a positive result for Hull. It is clearly not worth underestimating the hosts, who managed to beat the formidable Manchester United. Moreover, the rivals today are Aston Villa in crisis with their own problems in attack. We believe that Hull has a good chance of scoring at least one point.
The second bet is that Hull will not lose with a coefficient of 1.94
Betting on corners
Aston Villa have lost four consecutive matches on corners. Obviously, with such statistics, you should not count on much in this indicator today.
Prediction – Hull wins on corners with a handicap (+2.5) with a coefficient of 1.60
In Hull's four previous matches, goals had not been scored in each of the halves.
