Hull City and Blackburn Rovers square off against each other in a highly-anticipated FA Cup game. Given Blackburn’s struggles on the road, we predict a 1-0 home win. Hullâs narrow 1-0 defeat to Stoke City interrupted their solid run, but Sergej JakiroviÄ still has a competitive squad even with Semi Ajayi unavailable due to international duty. The Tigers remain a far stronger side away than at home, yet even at the MKM Stadium theyâve shown they can be dangerous, winning two of their last three there. Their home scoring average (0.80) is modest, but overall metrics remain positive: 1.20 xG, and 40% home clean sheets.Blackburn Rovers, meanwhile, head into the FA Cup clash with no new injury worries, but the deeper problem remains: a long injury list and a team struggling to convert performances into wins. Theyâve managed just one win in ten, and with zero wins on the road of late, scoring only 0.50 per away game. Their expected goals numbers (1.31 xG away, 1.26 xGA) suggest a side that competes but struggles up front.
