Hits woodwork Saturday
Ajayi had one shot (zero on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Chelsea.
Analysis: Ajayi continues to carry a real threat from set pieces at the other end of the pitch. The centre back rose unmarked to meet a corner at Stamford Bridge and steered his header onto the woodwork, and the rebound was worked back into the box for Mohamed Belloumi to put Hull in front. His defensive return was modest with one tackle, one interception and one clearance, but he saw out the full match for a side that has yet to taste defeat since coming up, and his aerial presence from dead balls could keep giving Hull an extra route to goal.
Helps Hull keep another clean sheet
Ajayi registered one cross (zero accurate) and one tackle in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Aston Villa. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 39th minute.
Analysis: Ajayi has been a central figure in a Hull backline that has now shut the door in three games running. He recorded one tackle, one interception and four clearances in the goalless draw with Villa, taking his season tally to three tackles, three interceptions and 14 clearances, along with the goal that opened Hull's league account.
