- Hull City are winless in their last 5 games in all competitions (D2, L3).
- Brentford are unbeaten in their last 3 away fixtures in Premier League 2026/2027 (D3).
Punchy Tigers are looking to test the Bees
Hull City have been in poor form of late, taking just 1 point from their last 3 Premier League 2026/2027 fixtures. The Tigers' last 5 games (in all comps) have seen them record 2 draws and 3 losses, including a 2-2 draw with Everton at home and defeats away to Newcastle and Fulham. Hull City are looking to improve their 9th place standing in Premier League 2026/2027 (9 points from 7 games) when they host 6th place Brentford (10 points from 7 matches). Sergej Jakirovic has built a compact, physical team with his 4-2-3-1 system, his focus on playing direct and wide allows his team to play a fast-paced, punchy style when transitioning. This should test the Bees and see a great deal of back-and-forth play.
Sturdy Bees are searching for a win
Brentford's recent form has been mixed, but it is more sturdy than that of their opponents. The Bees have won 2, drawn 2 and lost 1 of their last 5 matches. Brentford's latest away fixture was a 2-2 draw away to Aston Villa and they are now unbeaten in their last 3 on the road.
Keith Andrews has kept his team compact with a pressing system that controls the middle third, and the Bees have looked like a threat from set piece plays. Kevin Schade is the Bees' biggest threat in the attacking third.
Brentford to come out on top
The Bees are slight favourites for Sunday's game at 3/4 odds, Hull City are 33/10 and the draw is 14/5. We feel Brentford are most likely to win this game and take the points away from Hull. Brentford's form and odds suggest they are a more likely winner, Hull City are in poor form and can be leaky in the back. We think this will be a close game, but the Bees will edge it. Under 2.5 goals is also a live bet here.
