It's fair to say that manager Niko Kovač will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 6 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points.
