The play-off for Hull looks to be plain sailing as far as bookings are concerned and the event will take place this Tuesday night.

Wassall called his players and told them to be resilient and have character as they will want to reply to the huge defeat they had of 3-0 on their home turn.

When you consider this, it all seems fine, but the problem is the players in the squad that will walk into the derby haven’t shown quality in these past eighteen months, and fingers start to turn towards Wassall.

Don’t be Shocked with This:

You shouldn’t be too shocked if you see the Rams losing yet again, even after the capitulation four days ago, as their intentions are honorable but their morale is quickly diminishing while the team falls behind.

On the other hand, only eleven days are separating this game from the final, and Hull is facing the results of the campaign now, and that is having an effect on its squad too.

The Tigers responded strongly to pre-match protests on their last home games as they stuck five past Rotterdam, and Steve Bruce backed his chairman while stating that the supporter’s discontent would have a negative effect on the team, urging them to stop the protests and unify for the better of the club.

The 6-0 aggregate result on two regular season meeting is also something to be considered, and if the Hull squad is affected by statistics, then they should be motivated to set the record straight in another victory right here.

Stinging Criticism on Wassall:

As mentioned earlier, some fingers are starting to point at Wassal on these last few days as some wanted to switch to 4-4-2 sooner and Wassall preferred a like-for-like substitution method instead.

The iPro faithful also point out that the Rams only conceded the third goal because their midfield wasn’t adequately covered.

Sam Clucas, Sone Aluko and Chuba Akpom are Hull’s options on the bench, and they are eager to take action.

Regardless of all of this, the match is going to be fierce and fiery, and we are all expecting a good show, though the odds seem to stack in favor of the Hulls, so bear that in mind when it is time to place a bet.
