Seven points from three games - are Hull on track to avoid relegation?
It might be too early to settle survival talk, but newly promoted Hull City have given themselves the perfect platform to build on in the Premier League.
Hull City have made a remarkable start to their Premier League season, accumulating seven points from three games. Head coach Sergej Jakirovic and defender John Egan have been quick to acknowledge the importance of this early success. The team's strong defensive record, having kept clean sheets in each of their first three matches, stands out.
This achievement is rare for newly promoted sides, as no team has gone down after securing seven or more points from their opening three Premier League games. Hull's progress can be attributed to Jakirovic's arrival, who helped guide them to a play-off win last season and oversaw a significant influx of new talent. Despite facing challenges, particularly in terms of player availability from pre-season, Hull's solid defence and cohesive team spirit have given them a solid foundation to build upon.
The team's focus remains on accumulating points and securing their place in the top flight, with Jakirovic emphasizing the need to keep pushing for more wins.
