OK so for everyone in this league with something to play for it's the business end of the season.
Hull with 3 straight defeats and hearing what was a diabolical display by them at Pompey mid-weeek they are out for a win and 3 points to get back in the play offs.
We need points for obvious reasons.
Hull have the best defense in the league rarely giving goals away. However they are not prolific in front of goals.
really think this is a very tough game for us. Hull know what they need and the likely hood of 4 defeats in a row for them would represent a collapse in their season when the pressure is on and I don't see that quite happening. The absence of Robert Koren may be the main reason for this recent slump and I'm hoping that's the case.
Our defense looks strong and back in shape so we have the chance to maybe keep them out. Up front we have our usual problems and against such a strong defense don't see us getting a goal here.
Think this has a 0-0 written all over it in many ways and I would be very happy with a point here.
Truly hope we can make that happen as confidence is the key to this final run in.
