[Chris Jameson]

If I were a betting man I'd put money on either Danny Graham or Tom Huddestone scoring their first goals for about 10 years, I'm not though so a Villa win and interesting journey home trying to stop my son from teasing his sister too much.

It's a real art, smacking kids accurately while driving the car

1-2 away win , a tough scrap but we will just have too much for them and a win would give us an excellent base on which to progress  our season.

[SoccerHQ]

Think this will be draw, 1-1.

We never seem to follow up a great result with a winning run of form if you think back to the Arsenal game and some great results we've had in the last few seasons.

[Toronto Villa]

3-1 to us; Gabby's first of the season, Kozak and a collector's item from Ciaran Clark

[The Left Side]

1-1 draw, that is what I predicted for the citeh game so I hope it has the same result.

[mrastonvilla]

Got cheap tickets in with the locals for this one through work. I'm hoping to have a tough afternoon of sitting on my hands after a few goals from villa. Going 2:1 villa.

[frankmosswasmyuncle]

They will score.
We will score more.
UTV!

[danlanza]

Will Gabby be fit for this game ?

[dekko]

I thought Hull would be one of the whipping boys of the division this year, but they've started quite well and are in good form at the moment.

Getting Gabby back would be very useful.  Also might be worth going back to the 4-3-3 and regular away tactics.

1-2 win to the Villa!

That's Steve Bruce all over though. He starts well but in the end everything goes tits up and he gets the sack.

[Matt Collins]

Hull do look good compared to what I was expecting.

I really hope gabby's back and weimann's injury is mild. If so, I think we'll win. Without one or both of them it's hard to see us scoring many

I expect hull to score one goal. So I predict it will come down to how many we get and I predict two

I'd abandon the 352 personally. Revert to 433

KEA to do his constant badgering job on huddlestone. I'd bring back Westwood in spite of his poor form as otherwise we really won't have much in the way of ballplayers and I think we need to start getting the ball down and playing a bit more.

Bacuna to stay at right back unless he needs to play further fwd due to injuries. Tonev not a starter I don't think!
