Premier League is back as champions bid to launch title defence with victory at crisis club
Leicester City begin their Premier League title defence with a trip to managerless Hull City as the season gets underway at the KCOM Stadium. Hull go into the new season with Mike Phelan in charge following the departure of Steve Bruce, and with only 13 fit senior players to choose from. While Leicester are by no means favourites to win the title for a second season running, Claudio Ranieri's side are in good shape having held onto Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez over the summer.
- Hull City XI: Jakupovic, Davies, Robertson, Huddleston, Snodgrass, Elmohamady, Livermore, Meyler, Clucas, Hernandez, Diomande
- Subs: Kuciak, Maloney, Tymon, Bowen, Luer, Olley, Clackstone
- Leicester City XI: Schmeichel, Simpson, Hernandez, Morgan, Fuchs, Mahrez, King, Drinkwater, Gray, Musa, Vardy
- Subs: Zieler, Chilwell, Albrighton, Amartey, Kapustka, Okazaki, Ulloa
- Hull City and Leicester City kick off new Premier League season
- Hull are in disarray, with only 13 fit senior professionals available
- Leicester are looking to begin their title defence with three points
