Which two promoted clubs both won on the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend?

Hull City and Ipswich Town were the two promoted clubs that won on the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.

Hull City beat Manchester United 2–0 at home, while Ipswich Town defeated Sunderland 2–1 at Portman Road. Both victories came on Saturday, 22 August 2026. Their wins meant two newly promoted teams collected three points immediately.

Coventry City, the third promoted club, lost 3–0 away to defending champions Arsenal in the season opener. Sunderland were also a promoted side, but they lost to Ipswich, so they were not one of the two promoted winners.

This was reported as only the fourth time in Premier League history that two promoted clubs had won on the opening weekend. Ipswich had returned after a one-year absence, Hull after nine years and Coventry after 25 years, creating a particularly notable promotion group.
