Prediction: 0-2
Everton
A place in the FA Cup last 32 will be at stake when Hull City and Everton face each other at MKM Stadium. The Tigers suffered yet another loss in the Championship, with the team losing to both Nottingham Forest and Blackpool in the previous two league fixtures. Hull City defender Callum Elder, who limped off with injury at the weekend, is unlikely to feature in the FA Cup clash. The Toffees, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 3-2 loss to Brighton.
Since Rafa Benitez’s troops are not enjoying a Premier League season to remember, we are positive that they will take Saturday’s FA Cup game seriously. Even though all Iwobi, Richarlison, Townsend, and Mina are sidelined with injuries, we are tempted to put our money on the Premier League side. In their last meeting in a competitive match Everton rolled over Hull City 4-0.
Highlighted Player (Callum Elder):
Callum Elder is an Australia international who plays for Hull City in the League One. Elder started his youth career at Manly United, but in 2011 he was spotted by Leicester City scouts. Despite being a Leicester City player from 2013 to 2019, he did not see any game action with the Foxes in the Premier League.
Callum Elder played for the likes of Mansfield Town, Peterborough United, Brentford, Barnsley, Wigan Athletic, and Ipswich Town before signing a three-year contract with the Tigers for an undisclosed fee. Speaking of his international career, the pacey left-back has one cap with the Australia U20 team.
Elder’s favourite position is left-back, but he is capable of producing fine displays as a centre-back as well. Elder wears the No. 3 jersey at Hull City, and he is an athletic full-back who likes getting up and down the left-hand side. The Australian player was born on January 27, 1995.
Highlighted Team (Everton):
Everton are one of the two Merseyside giants that were formed back in 1878, with the club holding a long-standing rivalry with Liverpool. Everton have participated in the English top flight for a record 113 seasons, with the team competing in the English second tier in just four campaigns.
The Toffees play their home matches at Goodison Park, the stadium that was opened in 1892. Everton have won the national championship nine times, with the team winning their last domestic trophy back in 1987.
The Toffees have clinched five FA Cup trophies as well and it has to be noted that a victory over Manchester United in the 1994/1995 FA Cup final helped the team win their last title in the prestigious competition. Everton and Liverpool face each other in the Merseyside derby and the clash between the two local rivals has been called the Merseyside derby since 1955.
In the 2015/2016 Premier League campaign Everton were hammered by Liverpool (0-4) at Anfield.
