Fleetwood Town form and stats

Only two League One home games for Fleetwood Town so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat. Fleetwood has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager J. Barton and the players.

Fleetwood's last game was hosting Aston Villa U21 and winning 3-0. Heartbreak before that as Fleetwood lost 1-2 at Rochdale's place.

The 3-0 win against Aston Villa U21 was decided after a strong and deadly first half, making the second half more of a journey towards the final whistle. H. Saunders was absolutely essential when Fleetwood beat Aston Villa U21 3-0, scoring three goals.

Early season league goal statistics from Fleetwood Town's 2 home games: 2 goals, 2 conceded.

Hull City form and stats

Hull City are yet to lose a point on their League One travels this season with 2 wins from 2 away games. The fact that Hull have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Hull, as they have won on their previous two travels.

360 minutes! That's how long the Hull City goalkeeper Matt Ingram and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

The supporters enjoyed Hull City's previous game versus Plymouth Argyle (placed 13th), a League One 1-0 win played at home. Prior to that result Hull won their away game at Northampton Town. The scoreline was 2-0.

Hull City have the goal stats of 4-0 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
