Hull City beat Manchester United 2–0 in the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.
The match was played on Saturday, 22 August 2026, at MKM Stadium in Hull. It was the first Saturday fixture, beginning at 12:30 UK time, before the three 15:00 matches later that afternoon.
Hull City were one of three promoted teams in the 2026–27 Premier League, alongside Coventry City and Ipswich Town. Their victory made Hull the only promoted club to defeat an established top-flight side by two goals in the opening round.
The result was also Manchester United’s first league match of the season. Hull’s return to the Premier League followed a nine-year absence, according to the season summary, making the home win an especially notable start.
