Hull v Tottenham – Pain Preview

Team News
Robbie Keane, Roman Pavlyuchenko and Vedran Corluka are all back after being cup-tied against Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Cup.

Hull have Ian Ashbee, Daniel Cousin, Caleb Folan and Anthony Gardner back in contention but Craig Fagan is out with a knee injury.

Current Form
Spurs have only won 1 of the last 9 league games and have not picked up a point away from home since beating West Ham on December 8th.

Hull haven’t won in their last 9 league games and have only won 1 game in the league from their last 16 played.

Head to Head
Not an awful lot to go on here but Hull won at White Hart Lane earlier in the season by one goal to nil courtesy of a Geovanni free kick.

Conclusion
Both teams are in shocking form and both sides will be targeting this fixture as a must win. Hull started the season so well but they now look to have relegation written all over them with only one victory in the last 16 league games.

Spurs aren’t faring an awful lot better with only one win in 9 and some of the player will likely have one eye on Sunday’s cup final against Manchester United but with the big guns including Robbie Keane back in the squad, I fancy Spurs to leave the KC Stadium with all 3 points.

Best Bets
I like the look of 2-0 to Spurs at a generous looking 10/1 with Betfred.

Robbie Keane to score first is also a fair price at 11/2.
