Hull City vs Arsenal – English Premier League – Preview

Posted on May 3, 2015 by Sreya

Arsenal travel to KC Stadium to face Steve Bruce’s Hull City on Monday, as they look to secure the runners-up position in the Premier League behind Chelsea. By the time Wenger’s men take the field, the league could already be decided with Chelsea playing on Sunday afternoon against Crystal Palace. Hull are still relegation-threatened and Bruce will be worried with both Sunderland and Leicester taking three full points from this weekend’s fixtures.

Team News & Formation

Nikica Jelavic, Robert Snodgrass and Curtis Davies are still unavailable for the Tigers through injuries. David Meyler will return from suspension. Alex Oxlaide-Chamberlain and Mathieu Flamini are listed as doubtful for the Gunners.

Steve Bruce might field the same side which carved out back-to-back victories against Crystal Palace and Liverpool. Sone Aluko and Dame N’Doye will start up front with Stephen McQuinn, Tom Huddlestone and Jake Livermore in the central midfield. Hull have been playing Paul McShane, Michael Dawson and James Chester at centre-half with James Brady and Ahmed Elmohamady providing width.

The long-term injury absentees are starting to regain match fitness for Arsenal and Wenger could afford to rest one of Per Mertesacker or Laurent Koscielny. The Gunners will start in their usual 4-1-4-1 with Francis Coquelin and Santi Cazorla in central midfield. Danny Welbeck might get a run-in instead of Olivier Giroud up front. Captain Mikel Arteta might make the substitute’s bench as well.

Contributor’s Pick

Although Hull City are in a rich vein of form, the odds are in favour of Arsenal with bookmakers providing odds of 1.73 for an Arsenal win, 3.8 for a draw and 5.5 for a Hull victory. Arsenal will clinch the tie 3-1.

Before I joined soccerpunter, I had a huge addiction to betting and would lose my hard earned money in expectation of getting allot, I had little knowledge about making predictions based on research and wouldn't backtrack my recent bets cause I was only using local betting of issuing receipts, whc u could tear after a loss,..

But ever since I joined this soccerpunter family, all that is history and I don't lose any money, I have rather learnt to enjoy what was a "paid addiction" to a virtual reality which is costless. And due to that, am slowly learning the effects of gambling.

Thanks u soccer punter.
