At which stadium did Arsenal beat Coventry City in the 2026–27 Premier League opening match?

Arsenal beat Coventry City at Emirates Stadium in the 2026–27 Premier League opening match.

The fixture was staged in north London on Friday, 21 August 2026. Arsenal were the home team and began their title defence at their own ground, while Coventry City were playing their first Premier League match after promotion.

Arsenal won 3–0, combining a home victory with a clean sheet. The match therefore had a straightforward home-versus-away structure: Emirates Stadium belonged to Arsenal, and Coventry travelled to London.

Emirates Stadium has been Arsenal’s home since the club moved from Highbury in 2006. It is sometimes confused with the MKM Stadium, which hosted Hull City’s opening-weekend match against Manchester United, but those are separate venues in London and Hull respectively.
