Hull City are in the midst of a really exciting playoff battle at the moment, and welcome Swansea City to the KC Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Swansea are struggling, not in relegation trouble just yet, but not a million miles away, and it won't take much for them to get sucked in.
Hull City Form GuideWe've got an excellent playoff battle building up in the Championship, with a whole host of teams looking to get involved. The team they're all chasing right now is Hull, who begin the weekend in 6th position, but only have a very slender lead over the chasing pack.
What's aided Hull has been winning their last two league games, something that no one else in the playoff battle has done. The most recent of those was a 1-0 home success against Millwall, while before that, they went away from home to fellow playoff hopeful Sunderland, and came away with a huge 1-0 win.
Swansea City Form GuideLuke Williams was brought into Swansea to oversee the club, after the sacking of Michael Duff. But so far, Williams has taken some time to adjust to life in the second tier, what was working well for him at Notts County in League Two, isn't as easy to implement in the Championship.
Swansea come here on the back of losing their last three league games, and last four overall in all competitions as they also lost in the FA Cup. Most recently, they lost 1-0 at home to Plymouth, they've also lost 3-1 away at Leicester and 3-1 at home to Southampton, with a 5-0 loss away at Bournemouth in the FA Cup.
Match PredictionI like Hull here, they're going along well in the playoff battle, and know how important points are. Swansea need time, they may come good, but are some way off at the moment, and I see another defeat for them here.
