Which team scored three goals in the 12:30 BST match on the first Saturday of the 2026–27 Premier League season?

The story behind the answer

None scored three goals in the 12:30 BST match on the first Saturday of the 2026–27 Premier League season.

The early Saturday fixture was Hull City versus Manchester United at the MKM Stadium. Hull won 2–0, with Semi Ajayi and Nobel Mendy scoring before half-time.

This distinction separates the early kickoff from the full Saturday schedule. Brentford later beat Tottenham Hotspur 3–0, while Ipswich defeated Sunderland 2–1, Everton beat Crystal Palace 2–0, and Leeds won 1–0 at Nottingham Forest.

The wording can cause confusion because three goals were scored in one Saturday match, but not in the 12:30 fixture itself. The exact kickoff-time detail is therefore essential: the answer is a count rather than a club.
