Hull City vs Chelsea – Match Preview

Match Preview

Hull City started their season very brightly winning two matches from two, and have done well to avoid the relegation zone so far. The Premier League new boys shouldn’t be underestimated by any Chelsea fans, as it’s clear that we’re currently on a very poor run conceding way too many goals. However, the home side suffered heavy defeat to Liverpool last weekend, and it’ll be a match for both sides on Saturday night to pick themselves up and prove to be the better side. Hopefully we have recovered better!


One To Watch

Robert Snodgrass – The Scottish midfielder, versatile on the wing and in center, can provide an alarming danger to Chelsea’s toothless defence. He’s currently his team’s best goal scorer this season, as he has bagged a goal in Premier League games against both Arsenal and Leicester City.
