The 10 matches in the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend produced 30 goals in total.
Adding the final scores gives the total: Arsenal 3–0 Coventry, Hull City 2–0 Manchester United, Everton 2–0 Crystal Palace, Ipswich Town 2–1 Sunderland, Nottingham Forest 0–1 Leeds United, Brentford 3–0 Tottenham, Brighton 4–0 Aston Villa, Manchester City 2–1 Bournemouth, Newcastle United 2–2 Liverpool, and Fulham 2–3 Chelsea.
The highest-scoring fixture was Fulham's 3–2 defeat by Chelsea, which produced five goals. Three matches produced four goals: Brighton's 4–0 win, Newcastle's 2–2 draw with Liverpool, and the aggregate of one other? No—the remaining matches each produced three or fewer, so the five-goal London derby was the sole highest-scoring game.
Thirty goals across ten matches equals an average of three goals per game. The calculation uses goals by both teams, not just goals scored by winners or home clubs.
