Hull City vs Manchester United Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.58 expected goals for Hull City and 1.13 for Manchester United, a combined total of 2.71.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Hull City win, at 47.8%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 54% and over 2.5 goals at 51%.

A 48% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
