Manchester United kick off their 2026–27 Premier League campaign by visiting newly promoted Hull City on Saturday at the MKM Stadium, Kingston upon Hull.
The Red Devils finished last season on a high after Michael Carrick masterminded a remarkable resurgence which culminated in Champions League qualification. Confidence is through the roof and optimism has once again swept the stands at Old Trafford.
United’s iffy preseason form has soured the mood ever so slightly, with only two wins from six total friendlies. Bookended by defeats to Wrexham and Ruben Amorim’s AC Milan, their warmup schedule included hard-fought draws with Leeds United and Paris Saint-Germain, as well as wins over Rosenborg and Atlético Madrid.
Their journey to the MKM Stadium will mark a first meeting with Hull in nine years, with the 2016–17 season the last time the Tigers were in England’s top flight. After many years of Championship mediocrity and even one season in League One, they have returned under the excellent tutelage of Sergej Jakirović.
Last term’s Championship playoff winners have been dealt an awkward opener and will be reliant on rust in the United ranks to pull off a shock. After significant summer investment, they will hope some of their fresh faces can dazzle on debut.
