Hull City vs Preston North End prediction, preview, team news and more | EFL Championship 2021-22

Looking to make it four wins from four in the EFL Championship, Hull City welcome Preston North End to the MKM Stadium on Saturday.

The visitors, meanwhile, head into the game unbeaten in their last three matches and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.

Hull City continued in their resurgent form as they claimed a 2-0 win over Swansea City last Saturday.

Shota Arveladze’s men have now won their last three games on the spin, scoring five goals and keeping three clean sheets in that time.

This fine form has seen the Tigers steer clear of the relegation zone as they sit 18th in the EFL Championship table after picking up 32 points from 28 games.

Meanwhile, Preston North End were involved in a share of the spoils for the second game running as they were held to a goalless draw at Millwall last time out.

They have now lost just once in their last eight league outings, claiming three wins in that time.

With 38 points from 29 games, Preston North End are currently 13th in the EFL Championship table.
