Hull City were in the northern section of the draw and were drawn at home to Wigan Athletic in the first round.^[159][160] The match took place on 10 August 2021, and with few real chances in the first half. The second half saw an early attempt by Stephen Humphrys saved by Nathan Baxter. On 50-minutes a header by Humphrys was spilled by Baxter, but he was on hand to convert the rebound. Minutes later Keane Lewis-Potter brought Hull level with a shot from the edge of the area. With no more goals the match finished 1–1 and sent the game to a penalty shoot out. Fifteen penalties were converted, before Di'Shon Bernard sent his effort over the crossbar, leaving Jordan Cousins to put Wigan through to the second round.^[161]
