Newcastle United versus Liverpool finished 2–2 in the 2026–27 Premier League opening round.
The match took place at St James’ Park on Sunday 23 August 2026. It was scheduled as the final Sunday fixture, with a 16:30 BST kickoff, and was one of ten matches in the opening round.
The draw gave Newcastle and Liverpool one point each rather than a win. In league standings, a draw awards one point to each team, while a victory awards three points. The result also produced a goal difference of zero for both clubs from that match.
The score should not be confused with Newcastle’s other early-season result against Bournemouth, which was also listed as 2–2 in the season’s results table. The Liverpool match was specifically the opening-round meeting and was played at Newcastle’s home stadium.
