Hull City welcome Stoke City to the KCOM Stadium on Saturday hoping that a good result could fire them up the table.

The Tigers are currently 12th in the Championship table after picking up 26 points from 19 games so far.

A victory for Grant McCann's side could see them move up as high as ninth, with the play-off spots just five points away from the Lancashire side.

For Stoke City, it's a case of picking up points at all costs.

The Potters were expected to challenge for the top six, but with just 14 points from 19 games they find themselves in 23rd place in the table.

The Sky Sports pundit has predicted a 3-1 victory for Hull City against Stoke City, meaning that it could be another week of misery for the Potters.Michael O'Neill's side will be determined to get back to winning ways against Hull City, but according to David Prutton, that might not be likely.

The verdict

Hull City's clash with Stoke City is a difficult one to predict.

The Potters have a decent side on paper, but things just haven't clicked so far this term, leaving them in a precarious position.

The Tigers have blown hot and cold so far this season, but if Grant McCann's side can perform like we know they can then there's every chance of them recording a comfortable win.
