Week 34 of the English Premier League saw Hull and Swansea pull of crucial wins in the bid to avoid the drop, Crystal Palace reach safety after a win at Liverpool, and Man Utd close the gap on neighbours Man City to one point.

With the big boys competing in the FA Cup this weekend is was left to the little boys at the bottom of the table to provide the tension and drama that the punters have become used to in the Premier League.

With Sunderland and Middlesbrough lost causes, all contact lenses were on Hull and Swansea who both faced what looked on paper to be the easiest opponent’s they will face in the run in.

Watford arrived at the KCOM Stadium with three wins from four, but last week’s victory against Swansea ensured Premier League football for next season, so you alway felt they would arrive in Hull with the handbrake slightly applied.
