Premier League: Manchester United vs Hull City preview
Seven days after their meeting in the League Cup semi-final, Manchester United face Hull City, but this time in the Premier League and at Old Trafford. The Red Devils grabbed their tickets for the League Cup final, despite losing 2-1 at Hull City last week, but they did beat the Tigers 2-0 in the first leg and 1-0 in the reverse Premier League fixture in August. Manchester United got back to winning ways last weekend after three games without victory as they beat Wigan 4-0 in the FA Cup. They have two consecutive wins in the Premier League, and they will surely be keen on getting back to grabbing three points on Wednesday. Jose Mourinho has no injury concerns and he has also rested important players like Michael Carrick, David De Gea, Paul Pogba, Antonio Valencia and Zlatan Ibrahimovic last weekend. Hull City's League Cup dream has come to an end and their FA Cup run also ended last week as they lost 4-1 at Fulham. They can now focus on the Premier League relegation battle and they will most likely have to suffer through the last days of the season. They have won just one away match so far this season and lost nine out of eleven. Curtis Davies got injured again, so manager Marco Silva is without no less that nine first-team players between injuries and international duty. Probable line-ups: Man United: De Gea - Valencia, Jones, Bailly, Rojo - Herrera, Carrick - Mkhitaryan, Pogba, Martial - Ibrahimovic Hull: Jakupovic - Elabdellaoui, Maguire, Dawson, Robertson - Clucas, Huddlestone - Diomande, Evandro, Markovic - Niasse My prediction: Manchester United to win 2-0. Here are the odds for the match at Bet365: Man United win - 1.20 Draw - 7.50 Hull win - 17.00
