Not bad for the worst team in Premier League history - Hull's perfect start
· Sports · BBC Sport
Hull City has maintained a perfect start to their Premier League return by defeating Coventry 1-0 at the CBS Arena. Liam Millar scored the decisive late winner after the team previously secured an opening-day victory against Manchester United. Despite Coventry controlling nearly 70% of possession, Hull’s defensive unit, led by Semi Ajayi, successfully restricted the hosts. The result leaves Hull second in the early league table, marking the first time a promoted side has won their opening two games in nine years. Manager Sergej Jakirovic continues to target Premier League survival as the primary goal for the season.
Why it matters
The victory provides Hull City with significant momentum and belief in their ability to compete in the top flight, directly impacting their prospects of avoiding relegation this season.
