History of the Hull City v Ipswich Town fixture

Hull City prepare to entertain Ipswich Town at The KC Stadium at lunchtime on Saturday, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Tigers are clearly on top, winning 6 and drawing 4 of the 11 games played.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at The KC Stadium was less than a year ago, in March 2007, as the visitors ran out cosy 2-5 winners in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides

Hull City's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Tigers have scored 7, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Ipswich Town's away form is none too clever either, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While the Tractor Boys have hit 6 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Hull City find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 8 points from their 7 matches. Ipswich Town's 10 points from 6 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Hull City at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the The Tigers will at least gain a draw. Score draw
