The Super Eagles player, who has been a pivotal force in Hull’s recent successes, envisions a triumphant outcome in the upcoming fixture.
Hull City enters the game on the back of an impressive four-game undefeated streak, boasting two wins and two draws.

The seasoned defender, who has featured in 40 of Hull’s 42 league games this season, boldly predicted a string of victories, stating, “I fancy us to win our next four games. You can feel the confidence growing in the group. I just want us to finish the season strongly – that’s our only aim.”
Reflecting on his loan spell from Chelsea, Aina expressed gratitude for the invaluable experiences gained at Hull City. Describing it as a “wonderful experience,” he credited the Championship for enhancing his football acumen, emphasizing the stark differences from U23s football.
Aina also lauded Hull manager Nigel Adkins for instilling confidence and trust in him, acknowledging the mentorship as a catalyst for his personal growth as a footballer. As the Tigers gear up for a pivotal clash, Aina’s optimism reverberates, setting the stage for what promises to be a captivating encounter.
