Hull City vs Millwall prediction

Both Hull and Millwall have made a slow start to the season, but the two sides experienced contrasting results in their respective EFL Cup openers.

The Tigers hold a narrow head-to-head advantage and have had an unbeaten start to their league campaign, while the Lions are still to open their account. Millwall, though, have scored five times in their opening two games compared to Hull's two but have had a far more leakier defense.

Nevertheless, we expect Hull to continue their unbeaten start to the season with another stalemate.

Prediction: Hull 0-0 Millwall
