Which team won 2–0 against Manchester United on the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend?

The story behind the answer

Hull City won 2–0 against Manchester United on the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.

The match took place on Saturday 22 August 2026, with Hull hosting Manchester United. It was the first Saturday lunchtime fixture of the campaign and one of the opening round’s notable results. Hull’s victory meant a promoted side defeated an established Premier League club without conceding.

Hull were among the three teams promoted for the 2026–27 season. They had returned to the top flight after nine years away, so a home win over Manchester United immediately became one of the defining moments of their return. Manchester United, meanwhile, began the season with a two-goal defeat.

The 2–0 scoreline is distinct from Ipswich Town’s 2–1 win over Sunderland later on Saturday. Both promoted clubs won their opening fixtures, but Hull did so with a clean sheet and against Manchester United.
