After a shaky start against Norwich City, Hull City have managed to secure two back-to-back wins in the league and they’ll be looking for another three points in front of the Sky cameras this evening.
Hull City and Bristol City have both had fairly promising openings to the new season, although both teams have found goal-scoring to be a challenge.
Nevertheless, the match is expected to be a lively affair, particularly with Nigel Pearson, the former Hull manager, always keen to make an impact against teams he’s previously managed, especially if he was let go.
With an impressive tally of six goals across these two matches, Hull City has emerged as one of the division’s most high-scoring teams.
On the other hand, Bristol City suffered a 2-0 loss to Birmingham City in their last outing. The Robins found themselves at a numerical disadvantage when Robert Dickie received a red card.

Recent Form for Hull City
Hull City had a rocky start to the season, struggling in their initial two games.
The Tigers have managed to turn things around in recent weeks, securing consecutive victories. While their 2-1 win against a ten-man Blackburn side last weekend wasn’t a standout performance, it was sufficient for the three points.
The team has also been proactive in the transfer market lately, with Twine making a strong impression in his debut game.
Connolly has been a revelation coming off the bench, netting three goals in the last two matches despite not starting.
At the moment, the only significant player missing from the lineup is inner midfielder Docherty. Winger Sayyadmanseh is back to full fitness and is vying for a starting spot, as is Connolly.
Both players have had a notable impact as substitutes recently, and that could be how they continue to contribute.

Recent form of Bristol City FC
Last weekend, Bristol City turned in a lackluster performance, suffering a 2-0 home loss to Birmingham City. Their experiment with young Bell as a false nine failed to provide the cutting edge they needed. Despite this setback, Bristol had secured four points from their initial two games. While they’ve yet to keep a clean sheet, their defense had been relatively solid prior to this latest outing.
Heading into the upcoming match, Pearson faces significant lineup challenges with up to five key players potentially unavailable.
Centre-back Dickie is suspended, but Naismith is available to fill in, softening the impact of that absence.
The unavailability of their major summer acquisition, McCrorie, and primary centre forward, Conway, is much more concerning. Veteran Wells could potentially step in to spearhead the attack.
Team captain Weimann, who was injured in the season opener, has resumed training and may be fit to play in the upcoming match.
