Hull are newly promoted and still getting used to the speed of the top flight. Look for a deep, compact block at MKM Stadium, long periods without the ball and most of their danger from set pieces.

Arsenal are set up to control the ball. They should own most of the possession on the road at MKM Stadium and keep Hull penned in for long stretches.
