Aston Villa will host Hull City on August 5th at Villa Park to kick off their latest EFL Championship campaign.

The Tigers, formerly managed by Villa boss Steve Bruce, will be hoping to hit the ground running as they seek an immediate return to the Premier League – something Villa themselves will be hoping to achieve at the second attempt.

The match itself has been selected for Sky Sports coverage, and will kick off at 5:30pm.
