Selhurst Park Prepares for Hull's Return: Ticket Info and Match Details
Nine years is a long time to wait for a grudge to breathe again.
On Sunday, November 29, 2026, Selhurst Park finally welcomes Hull City back to south London for a Premier League meeting that carries far more history than the fixture list suggests. The last time these two shared this patch of turf, in May 2017, Crystal Palace tore into Hull, won 4-0, and shoved the Tigers towards the trapdoor.
Before that, in December 2016, they had traded blows in a chaotic 3-3 draw at the MKM Stadium. Goals, jeopardy, and a sense that neither side ever quite had the other under control. Across their last five league meetings, the record is perfectly split: two wins apiece and a draw. This is not a mismatch. It’s a series on pause, now resumed.
Now, the stakes are different, but the tension feels familiar.
Kick-off details
The Premier League clash between Crystal Palace and Hull City kicks off at Selhurst Park, London, on Sunday, November 29, 2026. The exact time, as ever, will hinge on broadcast selections, but the date and the venue are locked in. South London, late November, floodlights likely in play. It will feel like proper winter football.
How to get a ticket: the battle for a seat
Demand will not be gentle. Palace’s home support rarely is.
For home fans, the safest and most straightforward route is through the Crystal Palace official club website. The club operates a tiered release system, with tickets going out in phases based on membership level. Members near the top of that ladder get first crack at the best spots: central views, familiar rows, the vantage points from which Selhurst really roars.
Away supporters must go through Hull City’s official ticket office. A specific allocation at Selhurst Park is ring-fenced for the travelling fans, and it will not last long if Hull arrive with even a hint of momentum. Those black and amber pockets in the Arthur Wait Stand can be loud, especially when they smell vulnerability.
When those primary allocations dry up, the scramble changes shape. Fans who miss out through the clubs often turn to secondary ticket platforms such as StubHub, where season-ticket holders and members list seats once the official pools are exhausted. Prices there move with demand, not sentiment.
What it will cost: from the Holmesdale to hospitality
Selhurst Park has never been the cheapest afternoon in London, and this one will be no exception.
Through official club channels, general admission prices for Palace vs Hull City typically start at around £46 for standard lower-tier or corner seats. These are the spots where you feel the game more than you see every tactical detail, close to the noise, close to the arguments.
Prime central seating, with cleaner sightlines and a broader view of the pitch, tends to rise towards £80. Those are the seats that often go first once the membership windows open.
Membership and concession prices usually sit a little lower, generally between £35 and £60 depending on the stand and tier. For families and younger supporters, those brackets matter; they are the difference between watching this one on television or feeling the cold air and the crunch of every tackle.
On the secondary market, the numbers climb quickly. General admission tickets there often start around £69 and can average close to £154 when demand spikes. Premium and hospitality options, with the padded seats and the pre-match spread, typically begin near £197 and can run well beyond £390 when a Premier League weekend builds into a full corporate outing.
For anyone still weighing it up, the equation is simple: buy early, buy official, or pay the premium of hesitation.
Palace’s form: goals at one end, questions at the other
Crystal Palace arrive in this period as a side wrestling with their own contradictions.
Across their last five matches in all competitions, they have one win, one draw and three defeats. The bare numbers tell a sharper story: ten goals scored, twelve conceded. Selhurst Park remains awkward for visitors, but the defensive leaks are no longer an occasional drip; they are starting to feel like a pattern.
Their most recent outing, a 2-0 home loss to Newcastle United in the league, underlined the issue. Palace can move the ball, they can create, but when they are stretched, they bend too easily. Before that came a 2-2 Europa League draw away at Besiktas, another night when attacking enterprise was undermined by soft concessions.
The lone victory in that run, a 3-1 home win over Nottingham Forest, showed the best version of this team: front-foot, aggressive, and ruthless when chances appear. That version has not shown up often enough. The Selhurst crowd will demand it against Hull.
Hull City’s edge: stubborn travellers, short on wins
Hull City’s recent league form reads like a side stuck in neutral: two draws and two defeats from their last four Premier League fixtures.
They held Brentford to a 1-1 draw in their most recent match, a result that speaks to their resilience away from home. Before that, they slipped to a 1-0 defeat at Fulham, a narrow margin that still stings when points are at a premium.
Earlier in the same run, they dug out draws against Everton and Chelsea. Those results matter. They show a team that can go into difficult grounds, absorb pressure, and leave with something in their pockets, even if the winning habit has not fully taken hold.
Hull’s away record paints them as awkward guests: hard to put away, always capable of nicking a point, rarely blown apart. For a Palace defence already under scrutiny, that is not a comfortable prospect.
History in the background, pressure in the foreground
Strip it back and the numbers between these two are tight. Across the last five Premier League meetings, Crystal Palace have two wins, Hull City have two, and one ended level. The last of those, the 4-0 Palace win in May 2017, still looms large. That day, Selhurst Park was unforgiving, and Hull paid the price.
They have not faced each other in a competitive fixture since.
Now the story picks up again in a different era, with different managers and different squads, but with familiar stakes: survival, momentum, and the right to walk off the pitch feeling like a club moving in the right direction.
Tickets will be fought over. Points even more so.
