Manchester United’s shocking 2-0 loss to newly promoted Hull City marks the first time in history they’ve dropped points in their opening Premier League match to a team returning to the top flight — and it’s far from an isolated incident. From Arsenal’s surprise defeat to Brentford in 2021, Chelsea’s humiliating home loss to Burnley in 2017, to Aston Villa’s stunning 3-1 win over Arsenal in 2013, opening-day upsets are wild, unpredictable, and often set the tone for the season. Whether it’s Michu’s debut heroics for Swansea or West Brom’s brutal 3-0 thrashing of Liverpool, history proves: no club is safe on day one — even the giants can get caught sleeping.
