Which stadium was listed as Hull City’s home for its 2026–27 Premier League opening-weekend match?

The story behind the answer

MKM Stadium was listed as Hull City’s home for its 2026–27 Premier League opening-weekend match.

Hull City hosted Manchester United at MKM Stadium on Saturday 22 August 2026. The match was scheduled for 12:30 BST and formed the first Saturday fixture of the new Premier League campaign.

The ground is located in Kingston upon Hull and was listed with a capacity of 24,983 for the 2026–27 season. Stadium naming can create confusion because Hull’s home has used different commercial names at different times.

KCOM Stadium is an earlier name associated with the same ground, but it was not the name listed for the 2026–27 Premier League season. St James’ Park is Newcastle United’s stadium, while Elland Road is Leeds United’s home, so neither is the correct venue for Hull’s opener.
