Manchester United Face Promoted Hull City in First Test of New Season
Manchester United begin their Premier League campaign away to Hull City on Saturday, 22 August. It is a fixture that looks manageable on paper, but newly promoted teams often treat their opening home game as a cup final.
Michael Carrick’s side will want a calm, controlled performance after a summer of change in midfield. United follow the Hull trip with home games against Ipswich Town and Manchester City, so the opening weekend offers a chance to put points on the board before the pressure rises.
