Brighton & Hove Albion scored four goals in the first 31 minutes against Aston Villa on the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.
The remarkable burst occurred at the Amex Stadium on Sunday 23 August 2026. Brighton raced into a four-goal lead before the match had reached the halfway point, setting the tone for a 4–0 victory.
That performance made Brighton’s result the biggest home win of the opening weekend. It also placed the club near the top of the early league table, where goal difference separated the leading winners after the first round.
The result should not be confused with the Premier League’s record opening-weekend home win. Chelsea beat West Bromwich Albion 6–0 in 2010, a larger margin than Brighton’s four-goal victory. Brighton’s achievement was instead notable for the speed of its scoring.
