History: Hull have only won once at Albion in their history. Their solitary victory came 50 years ago in a 2-1 win at the Goldstone Ground.*
Ulloa: Albion’s last two goals against Hull City were scored by Leo Ulloa back when the sides met in the 2014 FA Cup. Ulloa scored in the 1-1 draw at the Amex, then in the 2-1 replay defeat at the KC Stadium a week later.
*
Longevity: Hull boss Steve Bruce was in charge of the Tigers last time they visited the Amex in 2013/14. The former Manchester United defender has been manager of the Humberside club for three years.
*
Liam: Albion defender Liam Rosenior will face the club where he spent the previous five years, should he feature against the Tigers.
*
Close: Neither side has won this fixture, either home or away, by a larger margin than one goal for ten years - since the Tigers defeated Albion 2-0 back in August 2005.
*
In Memoriam: The game against Hull is being dedicated to those who lost their lives in the Shoreham Airshow disaster, with special tributes being paid to Albion groundsman Matthew Grimstone and Seagulls fan Jacob Schilt.
*
Ten: Ten current Albion players were in the squad last time Albion hosted Hull (Ingio Calderon, Adam Chicksen, Bruno, Casper Ankergren, Gordon Greer, Jake Forster-Caskey, Kazenga LuaLua, Rohan Ince, Lewis Dunk and Solly March.)
*
Yannick: Striker Yannick Sagbo was the last Hull player to score at the Amex as he hit the equalising goal in the 2014 FA Cup tie to secure a 1-1 draw.**
