Manchester United begin their 2026/27 Premier League campaign with a trip across the country to take on Hull City. Michael Carrick starts his first full season as manager having impressed during his interim tenure last season.
A mixed pre-season campaign has seen the squad come through it relatively unscathed with only Mason Mount suffering a significant injury which is likely to keep him on the sidelines. United have also replaced Casemiro with midfield reinforcements Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans while they are negotiating to bring in Brighton's Carlos Baleba as well.
The Red Devils' opponents are Hull City who won promotion from the Championship via the play-offs. Hull finished 6th in the second division with 21 wins from their 46 games but only won one of their last seven league matches before victory in play-off rounds against Millwall and Middlesbrough in the final.
