At which stadium was Hull City versus Manchester United played on the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend?

The story behind the answer

Hull City versus Manchester United was played at the MKM Stadium on the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.

The match took place on Saturday 22 August 2026, with Hull City hosting Manchester United. Hull won 2–0, making the stadium the setting for one of the opening round’s biggest surprises.

The MKM Stadium is Hull City’s home ground in Kingston upon Hull. It has also been known by other names in earlier periods, including the KC Stadium and KCOM Stadium, which can create confusion in historical references. The venue is shared with rugby league club Hull FC.

Manchester United’s home stadium is Old Trafford, so it is not the correct answer for this fixture. The opening-weekend schedule listed Hull City first because they were the home team, while United travelled to Yorkshire for the Saturday lunchtime contest.
