Bread with a hump on the side

Hello, 

Sometimes my bread grows a hump during baking. It comes out usually later during the bake and always from a side. It doesn't happy very often but I'm wondering what is the problem.

Could it be underproofed or is it bad shaping, bad slashing? It happens only with batards, I proof them in bannetones or free form.

Any ideas how to fix it?

Thanks.
