At which stadium did Everton beat Crystal Palace in the 2026–27 Premier League opening round?

Everton beat Crystal Palace at Hill Dickinson Stadium in the 2026–27 Premier League opening round. Everton won 2–0 in the first Premier League match at its new home venue.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall scored Everton’s first goal, and Thierno Barry added the second after half-time. The victory ended Everton’s run of seven consecutive top-flight matches without a win and gave the club its first opening Premier League victory in five years.

The venue’s inclusion is an important detail because Everton had previously played home matches at Goodison Park. Hill Dickinson Stadium became the club’s new home, while Crystal Palace began the season under new manager Pierre Sage. Palace also suffered an injury setback when defender Chadi Riad was carried off during the match.
