Pick of the stats: Hull City v Middlesbrough

New Middlesbrough boss Kim Hellberg claimed a win to kick-off his time at the Riverside but can he follow it up on the road against a tough Hull City side on Friday night (20:00 GMT).

Boro took a 2-1 victory over Derby to put themselves back in the automatic promotion spots but with Millwall, Stoke and Preston North End all looming, they will need a win to ensure they stay there.

Victory may not come easy though, as opponents Hull seek a place in the top six and their first back-to-back wins since October.

  • Hull have won just one of their last six league games against Middlesbrough (D1 L4), a 2-1 away win in December 2023.
