Reasons for Today’s Championship Betting Tips

Aston Villa were on the brink of a financial breakdown before a late takeover looks to have steadied the ship, they now look in a strong position going into this new campaign but the future of Jack Grealish is still unresolved and it remains to be seen if he will play tonight. For the first of tonight’s Hull vs Aston Villa betting tips, we’re going for an away victory. Hull are short defensively with their whole back-line being sold during the summer and Villa should be coming into the match with confidence. John Terry has left and despite still being there, Grealish is surely on his way out, however, Hull aren’t looking strong. The odds for Villa to win are 13/8 here.

When looking at the anytime goalscorer tips for this match, Jack Grealish would be an option if he starts, he has been in pre-season and his performances don’t look to have been effected by speculation linking him with Spurs. However, the obvious choice in the Villa ranks is Jonathon Kodija, who scored 19 goals last season. He will be tasked with firing Villa to at least the play-offs this season and with Hull City’s current defensive worries, he looks a good anytime scorer bet for our Hull City vs Aston Villa tips today.

Hull City Team News v Aston Villa

There doesn’t look to be any major concerns for Hull on the injury front going into this match, but their squad is looking a little threadbare. Allan McGregor, Michael Dawson, Sebastian Larsson and Abel Hernandez have all gone on free transfers.

Key man – Young winger Jarrod Bowen could be the shining light in this Hull team this season. He scored 14 goals last season and can certainly build on that strong break-through season.

Aston Villa Team News v Hull

Jack Grealish is likely to start the match despite speculation about his future but Keinan Davis and Scott Hogan miss out through injury and Ritchie De Laet is suspended.

Key man – as mentioned in our betting tips, Jonathon Kodija will be key to Aston Villa’s chances of promotion this season and he’ll look to improve on his impressive 19 goal haul from last season.
