The only draw of the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend ended 2–2.
Newcastle United and Liverpool shared four goals in the Sunday 23 August fixture at St James’ Park. Each side scored twice, so neither team took three points and both began the campaign with one point.
The other nine opening-round matches produced a winner. Several were comfortable victories, including Arsenal’s 3–0 win over Coventry City, Brentford’s 3–0 victory against Tottenham Hotspur, and Brighton’s 4–0 result against Aston Villa. Chelsea completed the round with a 3–2 away win over Fulham.
The 2–2 scoreline is distinct from the 0–0 result involving Nottingham Forest and Leeds United? That match actually finished 0–1, so the opening round contained no goalless draw. The Newcastle–Liverpool game was the sole tie.
