City blew any chance they had of winning the Premier League after their 2-1 defeat at Stamford Bridge in midweek and I expect them to take their frustrations out on struggling Hull at the Etihad at the weekend.
City are the shortest price on the weekend coupons at just 1.20 to bounce back to winning ways and it\’s really impossible to see how they can be opposed.
You have to go right back to August 1988 to find the last time that the Tigers\’ beat City, and to show you just how long ago that was we was all listening to Guns n Roses on our Walkmans.
Since that win City are unbeaten in the last 10 against the Tigers\’ and in the recent Premier League clashes there has been some very one-sided results with City winning by at least two goals in five of their last six and my first bet on this match is for City on the Asian handicap line -1.5 goals which is generally a 1.57 chance..
Hull manager Marco Silva has done a great job since arriving at the KC Stadium and they come to Manchester just outside the relegation spots after a fine 4-2 win at home to Middlesbrough, but away from home they really struggle for goals with only SEVEN scored in 15 away games, which is the lowest in the top flight and I can\’t see them scoring against City on Saturday and a home win to nil is also on my betradar at 2.05 with BetVictor.
Pep Guardiola looks to have wrapped up a top four finish and his only chance of silverware in his first season in England is the FA Cup, but it\’s not in the Spaniards nature to take it easy in matches like this and I still expect a strong city starting XI and I like them to cruise this one 3-0 which looks the best correct-score option at 8.50 with several green listed bookmaker again and it was the score line in the reverse fixture.
No side has conceded more penalties in Premier League history than Hull already have managed this season with a staggering 12 conceded already and Bet365 will offer you 3.75 that a penalty is conceded and with two penalties awarded in the last three Premier League meetings against these two that\’s a fun wager to have for the neutrals.
