We said: Hull City 2-1 Blackburn Rovers

Confidence is in limited supply in both camps at the minute, but given Blackburn's ongoing defensive frailties on the road, the Tigers of Hull ought to rediscover their offensive bite on home turf. The hosts made hard work of their success over a 10-man Blackburn side in August, and while Tomasson's men should avoid a repeat of their Huddersfield humbling, we have faith in Hull to get their playoff charge back on track.
