The only drawn scoreline during the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend was 2–2.
Newcastle United and Liverpool finished level at 2–2 on Sunday 23 August 2026. Their match at St James’ Park was the only draw among the ten opening-round fixtures.
The other nine matches produced a winner. Several were decisive victories, including Brighton’s 4–0 win over Aston Villa and Brentford’s 3–0 win over Tottenham Hotspur, while Manchester City and Chelsea won by one-goal margins.
A draw awards one point to each club, unlike a victory, which gives three points to the winner. Newcastle and Liverpool therefore began the campaign with one point apiece, while the other opening-round clubs either collected three points or none.
