Hull City will be hosting Swansea on Saturday, March 11th, as both teams will fight tooth and nail in order to survive in the Premier League. Hull fought hard against Leicester, but they were unable to grab any points from their trip. Swansea are coming off a great win over Burnley and moved a bit further from the relegation zone.
Hull City (5-16-6) are coming off a sad loss, as they lost by 1-3 to Leicester, despite the fact that they actually took the lead at the 14th minute. However, their opponents managed to completely overturn the result in their favour by the 59th minute. Hull did have a couple of opportunities to pull even themselves, but they scored an own goal at the 90th minute for the final 1-3. The plot thickens now for Hull, as they are currently sitting at the 19th spot of the Premier League with 21 points, already 4 points behind the red line. They have a 4-5-4 record at home, but they were defeated only by Manchester City in their last 8 (3-1-4). Five of those matches in that span had Over 2.5 Goals, while both teams scored in 6 of those. They will be coming into this match with their usual injury report that has been filled with 6 players for quite a while, while midfielder Evandro is still listed as questionable to participate.
On the other hand, Swansea (8-16-3) are coming off a hard-fought 2-3 win against Burnley at home, and made one more step towards avoiding the relegation this season. It was a crazy match, with a lot of scoring chances and a lot of wrong whistles by the referee, but justice was served at the 92nd minute for Swansea. They are now sitting at the 16th spot of the Premier League with 27 points, just as many as Bournemouth and Leicester above them, while all of them are 5 points above the relegation zone. Swansea have been great under coach Clement (5-3-0), as he has gathered 15 points, while they had only 12 before him. The team has been greatly improved at the offensive end since the chance of coach, as they are coming off 7 matches with Over 2.5 Goals in their last 8, while both teams have scored in 6 of those matches.
