Hull – Sunderland: 6th May 2017

The tour was 3-0 for Sunderland, at a time when David Moyes still hopes to avoid relegation and Hull seems condemned! Things have changed in the meantime: Hull brought Mario Silva to the bench, who put the team in motion, and this northern duel could save the “tigers” who fought heroically.

Sunderland, an anemic team on the move

Sunderland is on the 20th place, has defeats on the line and is no longer playing for the record – it will be in the second league since the year. In direct matches, we do not see very many goals, as both bands are predominantly defensive. When they meet, the points are so important that caution is maximum! That’s how it can be this time.

All figures, by the hosts

Hull has had 3 wins in the last 6 matches and has just taken a precious place at Southampton (0-0), while Sunderland lost to home with Bournemouth. Hull has higher hunger points, a better lot and a higher moral. That’s why Mario Silva’s team starts his favorite. Sunderland has not scored in 9 of the last 10 league matches, with 9 defeats in the last 10 games. In return, Hull has 6 wins in the last 7 matches played at home!
