Sunderland's progress this season is nothing short of impressive - the team returned to the Championship just 2 years ago, and in both seasons they are already fighting for a return to the Premier League, albeit through the play-offs.
Hull City also played in League One a couple of years ago, but still the Tigers are not yet in a position to fight for a return to the Premier League, although Hull are not far from the top 6.
The teams are almost neighbours in the standings, but still Sunderland looks preferable, as the Black Cats have already beaten Hull City in the first round, and in away games the Tigers perform quite poorly.
Prediction: Sunderland to win. We recommend the “1 Win” bet, odds 1.89
