Hull City, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Hull City players having failed to take any points away from their recent 3-1 away defeat at the hands of Norwich City. During that encounter they had 42% possession and had 3 attempts on goal with 1 on target, while their opponents hit 6 of their 21 shots on goal.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 6 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 5 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. Liam Rosenior will be unhappy that his team have failed to keep a clean sheet in so many home games, having conceded in 14 of their 16 this season.
Hull City will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home games, but having managed just 2 wins leaves them plenty of room for improvement.
Preston North End, Recent FormGrabbing a valuable league point from their recent 1-1 draw against Luton Town will have been seen as a reasonably decent result for Preston North End. Their share of possession in that meeting was 46%, while racking up 7 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target. Luton Town had 18 shots on goal with 3 on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 5 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 11, and leading to valuable points being dropped. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away league games. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
This squad has enjoyed a decent run of league form on the road of late with 4 wins from their last 6 away matches.
With 5 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Preston North End, Ched Evans will be looking to add more goals against Hull City in this match.
It was a 0-0 draw last time these two met, so not one to look back on fondly, with both sides taking away just a single point for their troubles.
In the previous 2 league encounters between these two teams, Hull City have failed to score a single goal against The Lilywhites. Playing at home, Hull City have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Preston.
Hull City manager Liam Rosenior has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Nathan Baxter (Ankle), Vaughn Covil (Cruciate ligament), Allahyar Sayyadmanesh (Hamstring) and Adama Traoré (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Preston manager Ryan Lowe ahead of this clash, with Emil Riis (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Lowe a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
