With four points after two games, Hull will be in ninth place heading into this weekend’s action. With two losses under their belts, Blackburn joins only six other teams in this season’s opening two matchdays. Last weekend, Hull bounced back from their loss to Wrexham in the EFL Cup with a 3-2 victory against Oxford United at this site. The teams were deadlocked 3-3 at the end of regulation, therefore the loss was decided on penalties. Before beating Oxford, Hull held Coventry to a scoreless draw, so they’re off to a good start this season.
However, Blackburn Rovers, who lost 2-1 to Birmingham at home last week, can’t say the same. With the loss, the Rovers’ aspirations of getting off to a good start in both competitions and friendlies were dashed. The Rovers need to pick themselves up immediately, but it will be difficult given their recent record—they have lost five of their eight Championship outings in a row.
