Hull City vs Brentford Prediction: Can Hull stop the winless run in Premier League?
The recent form of both sides supports the case for a first-half draw. Hull are without a win in their last six matches, while Brentford have shown enough vulnerability away from home to suggest neither side is likely to take control immediately.
That fits the Hull City vs Brentford prediction of a draw at half-time. Both teams have regularly been involved in matches where they score and concede, but their first-half records point towards a more measured opening, with Hull winning just 27% of first halves compared with Brentford’s 41%.

Prematch Probabilities
What does the Oddspedia community think?
The Oddspedia community is leaning towards Brentford in the result market, with 40 of 76 users backing the away win at 3/4.
Brentford come into the game in the stronger league position, sitting seventh with 10 points and just one defeat, while Hull are 11th on nine points after a LDLDL run. The most recent meeting also ended in a 5-1 Brentford win, which gives the visitors another positive reference point.
Hull’s home record makes the picture less straightforward, though, as they have proved difficult to beat on their own ground. The community favours Brentford, but Hull’s resilience at home suggests the away win is not without risk.

Hull City form analysis: Can they end the drought?
Hull come into this one on an LDLDL run and are without a win in their last six league matches. Their home form has been much stronger, though, with 10 straight matches unbeaten and a 1 win, 2 draws and 0 losses league record on their own ground this season.
Mohamed Belloumi has been the main attacking threat, contributing three goals and two assists in seven appearances, and he will need support if Hull stick with a 5-4-1 shape. Their matches have not been especially high-scoring overall, with over 2.5 goals landing in 44% of games and both teams to score also at 44%.
The concern is at the other end, with Hull conceding in each of their last five matches. Tightening up defensively looks important if they are to turn their strong home run into a much-needed league win.
Brentford form analysis: Can the Bees cash in?
Brentford come into this one in steadier form, with a DWWDL run across their last five matches and just one defeat from their opening seven league games. They sit seventh on 10 points, while their away record has also been solid, with three draws from three league trips and seven away matches unbeaten in all competitions.
They have scored in 13 consecutive matches, which underlines their consistency in attack. Their games have gone over 2.5 goals in 78% of matches, while both teams to score has also landed in 78% overall and in all of their away league games so far.
Kevin Schade is listed as their top scorer with three goals in the match facts. With Brentford regularly finding the net, his threat could be important again here.
Hull City vs Brentford odds: Brentford clear favourites
Brentford are clear favourites in the result market at 3/4, with the draw priced at 13/4 and Hull at 17/4. That reflects Brentford’s stronger league position and their unbeaten away run.
The goals market is set at 2.75, with over priced at 7/8 and under at 16/15. That line points towards the market expecting around three goals, with a slight preference towards the higher-scoring side of the total.
In the Asian handicap market, Brentford -0.75 is available at 9/10, while Hull +0.75 is 1/1. That suggests the visitors are expected to have the edge, with a one-goal Brentford win sitting close to the centre of the market.
Hull City vs Brentford predicted lineups: Shape clash ahead
Hull are expected to line up in a 5-4-1 under Sergej Jakirovic, which points towards a compact defensive shape and quick transitions. Tzolakis should start in goal, with Coyle, Ajayi, Egan, Herrington and Norton-Cuffy forming the back five.
Belloumi looks like the main creative threat out wide, with Crooks and Slater providing support through midfield. Sorba Thomas should offer another outlet from the flank, while Oli McBurnie leads the line.
Brentford are forecast to use a 4-2-3-1 under Keith Andrews. Kelleher should start in goal behind a back four of Kayode, Ajer, Van den Berg and Lewis-Potter. Jensen is expected to operate behind Igor Thiago, with Ouattara and Anthony providing pace in the wide areas.
The contrast in shape could make the flanks especially important, with Hull’s wing-backs likely to be tested by Brentford’s wider attacking players.
