Hull City faced fellow promoted side Peterborough United for the first time since they were both in League One, however it was Posh that came out on top thanks to goals from Jack Taylor and Siriki Dembele.
Hull came out 3-1 winners in their final battle in the third tier back in March, but lost out in the reverse fixture at the KCOM Stadium.
The home loss is The Tigers’ second defeat since enjoying a surprise win over Middlesbrough earlier this month and Grant McCann’s side will be hoping to avoid making it three in a row as they travel south to take on Luton Town this weekend.
