Hamilton Academical form and stats

Things could have gone better for Hamilton Academical in their Championship away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.

Academical have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 196 minutes ago. L. Smith was the goal scorer.

Academical might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Ayr United proved too strong as Hamilton Academical slumped to a 0-2 defeat in front of their own fans at The Hope CBD Stadium.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Arbroath wasn't a success with a 0-4 loss.
