Newcastle United and Liverpool drew 2–2 in the 2026–27 Premier League opening round.
The match was played at Newcastle’s home ground on Sunday, 23 August 2026. It was one of the opening round’s two-goal-each draws, with both clubs taking one point rather than three.
A 2–2 draw is different from a 1–1 draw because each side scored twice. It also contrasts with the many opening-round wins, where one club collected the full three points and the other received none.
The fixture was the final match scheduled for Sunday in the opening round. Liverpool’s result therefore left them level with Newcastle on points after the first matchweek, although their positions in the table depended on goal difference and the results of the other clubs.
