TV channel and live stream options for Hull City vs Brentford are listed below.
Hull City host Brentford at the MKM Stadium in a Premier League fixture that matters for both clubs as the season begins to take shape.
Sergej Jakirovic's Hull side have struggled for consistency and arrive into this game without a win in their last five matches across all competitions. A home crowd offers some comfort, but the Tigers need a result to arrest a slide that has left them in the bottom half of the table.
Brentford come to Hull on the back of a narrow 2-1 defeat at the Gtech Community Stadium against Liverpool, a match settled by a late Alexander Isak winner off the bench. Keith Andrews's side have shown they can compete at the top end of the division, including a 3-0 win over Chelsea, but they have also shown defensive vulnerability at times.
The Bees arrive with two players suspended and injury concerns to manage, which could test the depth of Andrews's squad. Still, Brentford sit in the top half of the table and will back themselves to pick up points on the road.
For Hull, this is a chance to use home advantage to turn a difficult run around. Read on for everything you need to know about how to watch Hull City vs Brentford live, including TV channel, live stream details, and kick-off time.

Hull City head into this fixture with a significant number of absentees. Jack Butland, Darko Gyabi, Eliot Matazo, Ilyas Ansah, Matt Targett, Charlie Hughes, and Nobel Mendy are all sidelined. Jakirovic's projected XI is expected to feature Konstantinos Tzolakis in goal, with John Egan, Semi Ajayi, Lucas Herrington, and Ryan Giles in defence, and Oli McBurnie leading the attack.
Brentford are without Antoni Milambo and Joshua Dasilva through injury, while Yehor Yarmoliuk and Vitaly Janelt serve suspensions. Caoimhin Kelleher is set to start in goal, with Sepp van den Berg and Kristoffer Vassbakk Ajer expected in defence, and Igor Thiago leading the line for Andrews's side.
Form
Hull City have won none of their last five matches across all competitions, recording one draw and four defeats. Their most recent outing was a 1-0 Premier League loss to Fulham, and they have also fallen to Newcastle United and Sunderland in that run. The Tigers drew twice, 2-2 against both Everton and Chelsea, but have scored just six goals across those five games while conceding seven.
Brentford's recent form is more mixed. They have won two, drawn two, and lost one of their last five matches. The standout result was a 3-0 Premier League win over Chelsea, though they followed that with a 1-2 defeat to Liverpool most recently. Across five matches, the Bees scored eight goals and conceded seven, pointing to an open and at times vulnerable defensive record.
Head-to-Head Record
The most recent meeting between these two clubs came in February 2020 in the Championship, when Brentford won 5-1 at the MKM Stadium. Across the five previous head-to-head fixtures on record, all played in the Championship, Brentford hold the stronger record with two wins to Hull's one and two draws. Brentford have scored 13 goals in those five matches compared to Hull's six.
Standings
In the Premier League table, Brentford sit seventh while Hull City are eleventh, meaning the Bees arrive in Hull with a clear edge in the standings.
