The difference-makers

Hull City AFC. Mohamed Belloumi carries the creative and scoring burden for Hull City AFC, contributing directly to over half of the team goals in the tournament. Without his output translating into victories recently, the reliance on his production leaves the hosts vulnerable given their low shot volume and difficulties generating alternative threats from the rest of the squad.

Brentford FC. Kevin Schade leads the visiting attack with three goals in the tournament, aligning with the team maintaining higher shot volume averages than the hosts. When combining that offensive output with the defensive struggles shown by Hull City AFC conceding over a goal per match in their recent outings, the visitors gain structural advantages despite operating without an away victory so far.

Average of the most recent matches with stats available (7 and 7 respectively).
