The match kicks off at 13:00 UTC (14:00 BST) on 11 October 2026, in Gameweek 6 of the Premier League. Moreover, it is a meeting between two of the surprise packages of the early season. As a result, the winner could climb into the top six.

Hull City vs Everton Prediction: Match Preview

Hull City have made a strong return to the top flight. They are eighth in the table with 8 points from five games, after two wins, two draws and one defeat. In addition, they have conceded only 4 goals, which shows how organised they are. However, they lost their last game 2-1 at Newcastle before the break.

Everton, meanwhile, are seventh on 9 points and remain unbeaten after five games. They have won two and drawn three, and they have conceded just 3 goals, one of the best records in the league. Their last match was a 1-0 home win over Ipswich Town. Still, goals have not come easily, with only 6 scored so far.

Head-to-Head Record

These clubs have not met in the league since 2017, when Hull were last in the Premier League. Everton have the better record in recent meetings, winning three of the last six. The most recent game was an FA Cup tie in January 2022. Here are the last five results:

  • Jan 2022 (FA Cup): Hull City 2-3 Everton
  • Mar 2017 (League): Everton 4-0 Hull City
  • Dec 2016 (League): Hull City 2-2 Everton
  • Jan 2015 (League): Hull City 2-0 Everton
  • Dec 2014 (League): Everton 1-1 Hull City

Because of the long gap between meetings, current form matters much more than history here.

Hull City vs Everton form guide and head-to-head

Key Battle: Belloumi vs Everton's Back Four

Mohamed El Bachir Belloumi is Hull's most creative player, with two goals and two assists already. He likes to drift inside and run at defenders. On the other side, Everton's defence has been excellent so far, with only three goals conceded. If they keep Belloumi quiet, Hull will struggle to create chances. Otherwise, the home side can cause problems on the counter.

What to Expect at the MKM Stadium

Expect a cagey and physical game. Hull are likely to play with a back five and defend deep, while Everton will try to control the midfield. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall has created 11 chances for Everton, so he is the player who can unlock a packed defence. Meanwhile, both teams have kept clean sheets in recent weeks. For that reason, one goal could be enough to decide it.

Team News

Hull will be without Hidemasa Morita, Jack Butland and Nobel Mendy, while Matt Targett and Elliot Stroud are doubts. For Everton, Merlin Rohl is ruled out, and Christian Norgaard and Vitalii Mykolenko are fitness concerns. Therefore, check the confirmed line-ups one hour before kick-off.
