Which club did Hull City beat 2–0 in its first 2026–27 Premier League match?

Hull City beat Manchester United 2–0 in its first 2026–27 Premier League match.

The fixture was played on Saturday, 22 August 2026, at Hull City’s home ground. Hull had returned to the Premier League after a nine-year absence, making the match a major occasion for the promoted club.

The victory gave Hull three points and a two-goal winning margin against one of England’s most internationally recognised clubs. Manchester United, by contrast, began the season without scoring.

Hull City were one of three promoted teams in the division. Their return followed Coventry City’s 25-year absence and Ipswich Town’s one-year absence, giving the 2026–27 league a distinctly refreshed lineup.
