They achieved 35% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Hull City's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager Paul Ince will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 6 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 7 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. He will have some concerns about his team's back line after only making 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home matches.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form at Select Car Leasing Stadium, having lost 3 of their last 6 home games and picking up only 2 wins.

Manager Mark Robins will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. On the road, they are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away games. When on their travels they are proving difficult to break down, with an outstanding run of 5 clean sheets in a row, away from home.
