Hull City welcome Liverpool at The MKM Stadium, Hull on Saturday, Dec 26 at 6:30 PM in a Premier League fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Hull City come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 2D 1L). Liverpool, meanwhile, arrive drawing too many games (3D in last 5) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Hull City head into this on the back of a defeat, while Liverpool arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Head-to-head records offer little separation — Hull City and Liverpool have split their 10 meetings almost evenly (4W–2D–4W). Their last encounter ended in Hull City won 2–0.

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Hull City win or a draw looks most likely.
