Hull City went ahead twice, but twice West Ham managed to pull level as the fourth round of English Premier League football draws to a close with a 2-2 draw.
FINAL SCORE:
Hull City 2 – Abel Hernandez (39′), Mohamed Diame (64′)
West Ham United 2 – Emer Valencia (50′), Curtis Davies OG (67′)
In the last fixture of the weekend, Hull City welcome West Ham United to the KC Stadium. Join The Roar for live scores and coverage of the English Premier League from 5:00am (AEST).
Hull have had an indifferent start to the campaign thus far, with four points from their opening three games, although a win at the KC could realistically land the hosts into the top six as the Premier League table looks to take shape.
An opening day victory at Queens Park Rangers was followed up with a draw at home to Stoke and defeat at Villa Park, both fixtures that Steve Bruce would have been looking to pick up points from.
West Ham will also be earmarking this clash as a potential victory, particularly with Liverpool and Manchester United being the Hammers’ next two fixtures.
Sam Allardyce’s side have been profitable on the road so far, albeit from one game, with all three of their Premier League points coming from their trip to Crystal Palace, sandwiched by two defeats at Upton Park.
The Tigers were praised for a positive transfer window, with deadline day signing Mohamed Diame expected to make his Hull debut against his former club, although Hatem Ben Arfa, Gaston Ramirez and Abel Hernandez may be forced to watch this one from the stands.
Alex Song and Morgan Amilfitano may make their debuts for the visitors, whilst Emmer Valencia will be looked to to ease West Ham’s goal-scoring difficulties.
History suggests that this should be a close match, although both home sides won the corresponding fixtures last year, albeit by just a one-goal margin.
But how close will this clash be?
Prediction: Hull 1-1 West Ham
