Hull City vs Everton Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 11 October 2026
🔊 If you were to rank all the sixth-round fixtures by the level of genuine intrigue, the Hull and Everton meeting would comfortably sit at the top. Both sides are in the upper half of the table and between them have lost just once in their opening five league rounds. Everton have managed to keep their goals conceded down through a careful style of play built around holding a lead and hitting on the counter occasionally. Hull, by contrast, have been one of the surprises of the season through a complete absence of fear when it comes to attacking football against any opponent - their matches against Manchester United, Chelsea and Newcastle are proof of that. This is not simply two different teams meeting; it is two different footballing philosophies.
A trend towards high-scoring games
📊 The two sides meet rarely - Everton are one of the Premier League's most consistent members, while Hull only occasionally find their way into the top flight. The last three meetings between them have all been high-scoring affairs, with four goals in each. The most recent match at Hull's ground came four years ago in the FA Cup and went to extra time, where Everton made it 3-2 to progress to the next round.
Head-to-head statistics Hull City - Everton
Hull are one of the biggest surprises at the start of the season
Hull City have been the standout story of the Premier League's opening weeks, making it abundantly clear that their newly promoted status means nothing this season. The team have played with a surprising maturity and have already caused problems for some of English football's established names. In their first five league matches, Hull have lost just once - a dramatic defeat to Newcastle (1-2). The rest has been a series of upsets: a 2-0 win over Manchester United, a goalless draw with Aston Villa, a narrow 1-0 victory over Coventry, and a 2-2 draw away at Chelsea.
Riding that wave across all competitions at once has proved harder, though. In the League Cup, Hull came back down to earth quickly and painfully: with a rotated squad they lost away to Sunderland (0-1) and went out of the competition at that stage. However, the early exit allows the team to focus entirely on the Premier League. Hull are now firmly established in the upper reaches of the table, and their aggressive, bold style of play means no Premier League opponent can afford to take them lightly.
Match Results: Hull City
Everton are on an unbeaten run
Everton have built their early Premier League campaign on defensive discipline and pragmatism, and it has made them one of the hardest teams to beat in the division. The Merseyside club remain unbeaten, though the number of draws has prevented them from pushing into the top group. In five league matches, David Moyes's side have won twice: a confident 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace at the start of the season, and a narrow 1-0 win over Ipswich in the fifth round. The other three matches all ended in draws - a lively 2-2 with Manchester United, and more cautious stalemates against Bournemouth (1-1) and Tottenham (0-0).
In domestic cup competition, Everton have a perfect record. In the League Cup, they first dismantled Preston North End with a 4-0 away win, then edged out Wolverhampton 1-0 at home in a hard-fought tie. Moyes's approach, built around a solid defensive structure and the reliability of goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, is producing results and making Everton's matches the lowest-scoring in the Premier League - though a stern test now awaits in the form of an ambitious Hull City side.

⚽ Goals Prediction
We think the historical trend for high-scoring matches in this fixture will be broken this Sunday. Both sides have averaged around one goal scored per game at the start of the season and have been conceding even less, placing them among the best defensive teams after five rounds. Everton know how to pick up points in these kinds of matches and may find a way to keep their opponents from taking all three by playing cautiously and protecting their goal. The Toffees will certainly not open up, even at the risk of a draw. Our prediction is Total Goals - Under 2.5, priced at 1.84*.
🚩 Corner Prediction
The corner trends tell us that Total Corners - Under 9.5 has landed in 8 consecutive home matches for Hull City, and that the hosts have taken fewer than 4.5 corners at home in 7 matches in a row. Given that Hull have adopted a pragmatic style of play, they are clearly not going to be the side delivering a high volume of corners in this fixture. Everything points to a low corner count in this match, so we're taking Total Corners - Under 10.5 at 1.57*.
🟨 Yellow Cards Prediction
As a league newcomer under pressure from more experienced opponents, the home side often struggle to track opposition movements in transition. They average two yellow cards per match at home. Liverpool, for their part, traditionally rely on a tight, persistent fouling game away from home. On the road, the Reds commit around 12-14 fouls per match on average, which consistently translates into 2-3 bookings. The prediction is Total Yellow Cards - Over 3.5 at 1.73*.
*Odds are approximate and may vary across different bookmakers.
⭐️ Editorial Prediction
Hull's home matches this season have gone well for the hosts - a win over Manchester United and a goalless draw with Aston Villa. A key feature has been keeping clean sheets. Everton's two away matches this season have both ended in draws (1-1 and 0-0). There is every reason to think this match could end in much the same way, with the visitors failing to score more than one goal. The main prediction is Everton Team Total - Under 1.5 Goals. Predicted score: 1-1.
