Sheffield Wednesday have lost 16 of 25 league games
The hosts have lost six of eight clashes with the top eight
Hull have won five of their six clashes with the bottom six
Tigers good value for another away win
Hull City have a chance to boost their playoff push with a victory at Sheffield Wednesday on New Year’s Day. The Tigers return to Hillsborough for the first time since the first day of 2020. They walked away with a slender 1-0 win that day, one of four defeats that the Owls have suffered across their last nine New Year’s Day games, with each of those coming at home.
Hull City head into this clash in sixth and they’ve got a strong away record. Only three teams in the league have more points on the road, while they’ve picked up five wins from their meetings with the bottom six this term. The Tigers won 4-2 in the reserve meeting and their good results away to sides towards the bottom of the table suggest they’re well-priced for the points.
Wednesday are second bottom with 16 losses in 25 games and their return of two points across eight meetings with the top eight suggests they’ll be outclassed in this one. Look to Hull to come away with all three points in this trip.
