If you are expecting goals, do not look to the frontmen.
Liverpool take on Hull City in a Premier League clash held over due to the Reds’ FA Cup semi-final (mis)adventures.
Both sides are in desperate need of all three points but supporters would be advised not to expect a flood of goals.
This Sky Sports statistic sums up both team’s misfiring frontlines.

Nikita Jelavic is Hull’s top scorer this season (8 goals) but his thigh injury has come at an unfortunate time. Dame N’Doye (5 goals) is next.
Liverpool’s leading scorer, in the league, this season is Raheem Sterling (7 goals). He is an attacking midfielder but has often been deployed as the club’s main striker.
Of the club’s four dedicated strikers, the goal tally is thus: Daniel Sturridge 4, Rickie Lambert 2, Fabio Borini and Mario Balotelli one each.
