Derby County - Hull City betting tips and odds

Derby County are definitely more likely to win, though all three possible results are quite reasonable to expect. This makes it hard to make reliable betting predictions when this match is concerned, though we may find some betting value.

Things are looking problematic for the visiting side. They are going up against a stronger team which also has a home pitch advantage. Victory is still within reach – they’ll just have to work harder than usual to get it.

The Rams lost an away game at Huddersfield Town in the previous round. The entire match was an uphill battle for them, and top online bookmakers priced an away win at odds of 3.70. As such, the 2:0 was somewhat predictable, even though Derby County managed to maintain a stalemate in the first half.

Hull City’s latest home game against Preston North End was a bit uneventful, ending in a narrow 0:1 defeat. While the loss is not great, we should remember that Hull City were considered underdogs going in – if only by a thin margin.

Derby County’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 6 goals throughout their latest three Championship matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

Hull City have a record of uneventful away matches. Specifically, their previous 2 games as visitors featured 1 goal or less.

Derby clearly have the upper hand in this matchup, though it doesn’t seem insurmountable by any means. They won despite a home-field disadvantage the last time they clashed with Hull City, but it was a rather narrow victory.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

And Under 2.5 Goals bet may not be the obvious choice, but that may be exactly what makes it good. The Unibet sportsbook is pricing this fixture at 1.71, which offers substantial betting value. It’s not without risks, of course, but it’s statistically an excellent choice.
