The standout performance was a remarkable 5-0 victory over Middlesbrough in the League Cup, showcasing their offensive potential. Defensively, they've been solid, keeping three clean sheets in six matches. However, their league form is concerning, with two consecutive losses in their last two Championship games, contributing to their mid-table position.

The team's struggles are further highlighted by the fact that 83% of their recent matches have seen under 2.5 goals, indicating a lack of offensive firepower. With three consecutive games without a win in the league, Hull City will be eager to turn their fortunes around and climb out of the relegation zone.
