West Ham United hosts Hull City in the English EFL Cup 1/16 finals. The match will be played on Tuesday, September 22nd at Olympic Stadium (London)
Things of West Ham United in the new season immediately went wrong, although sponsors and owners invest a lot of money with the hope of an effective output from year to year. However, it is not visible so far. For example, the Hammers threw off the shackles of an outsider only in the last rounds of the last English Premier League. The team was grating on the nerves of fans at its completely new handsome stadium, where West Ham often plays with "kettlebells on their feet", as well as at its empty version. By the way, the Hammers again confirmed personal dubious prospects at the start of the current regular season, losing to modest Newcastle at home (0:2). And then West Ham lost to Arsenal in the London derby (1:2).

As for Hull City, it probably did not come to terms with its fate of the team that unexpectedly relegated from the Championship. In the first games of the new League One, the team consolidated itself as the favorite and confidently beat Crew Alexandra (1:0) and Gillingham (2:0). But it was clear that the Tigers who appeared in the 3rd most powerful division will be in its element due to their experience and a good budget. The fact is that Hull has demonstrated surprisingly sharp teeth in previous League Cup matches, showing a clear interest in it. The Tigers knocked out not only famous Sunderland but also Leeds United. This is the club that became the champion of the last Championship and has already shown itself well in the current elite!
In my opinion, the extremely unstable West Ham United, which has incomprehensible goals in such an unpopular competition as the English League Cup, will have serious problems in the upcoming match. The Hammers will probably field a reserve lineup, and they need to make up for lost in the upcoming meetings of the Premier League. I think that Hull City will not lose with a difference of more than one goal.
Prediction for the match: Hull City to win with +1.5 handicap
