Answer
Newcastle United versus Liverpool
Answer
Newcastle United versus Liverpool
Newcastle United versus Liverpool ended in a 2–2 draw in the 2026–27 Premier League opening round.
The match was played at St James’ Park on Sunday 23 August 2026. Newcastle United were the home team, and Liverpool were the visitors.
It was the final Sunday fixture listed in the opening round, following the two 14:00 matches involving Manchester City, Bournemouth, Brighton, and Aston Villa. The four-goal draw gave both Newcastle and Liverpool one point from their opening match.
The result is distinct from the other Sunday games: Manchester City beat Bournemouth 2–1, while Brighton defeated Aston Villa 4–0. Fulham versus Chelsea was played on Monday, so it was not the Sunday draw.
