Tigers Aim to Extend Winning Streak Against Managerless Watford
The Championship is set for an exciting match on Tuesday as Hull City hosts a struggling Watford side, who are currently without a manager. The key battle promises to be an intriguing contest, as Hull aims to extend their winning streak and solidify their promotion bid.
Hull’s Strong Form
Hull City has been in impressive form, collecting 25 points from their last 30. Despite questioning their performance against Blackburn, they managed to secure a win, further boosting their promotion prospects. The Tigers have recently defeated notable teams like Middlesbrough and Millwall, showcasing their growing strength.
Managerial Changes at Watford
Watford faces uncertain times following the resignation of manager Javi Gracia. His departure came after discussions with club owner Gino Pozzo about the team’s future ambitions. With assistant coaches Charlie Daniels, Dan Gosling, and Adrian Mariappa temporarily leading the team, Watford hopes to turn around their dismal form.
Recent Struggles
The Hornets have only managed two points from their last four matches, leading to concerns about their performance. A series of poor results, including two home defeats, have left Watford struggling both offensively and defensively. Their recent lack of goals and defensive lapses have contributed to their slump.
