That was the only league game they conceded a goal in.

Hull's win at Southampton was the highlight of a month which put the Tigers back into the play-off places after a poor December and January. Defeat at home to Swansea CIty and a draw with West Bromwich Albion – one point above them – were their only dropped points.
