Which 2026–27 Premier League opening-weekend match produced a 4–0 scoreline?

The story behind the answer

Brighton & Hove Albion versus Aston Villa produced a 4–0 scoreline on the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.

Brighton won the Sunday 23 August match by four goals at home. It was the largest home victory of the opening round and one of the clearest results across all ten fixtures.

The result is particularly useful as a reference point because the weekend included several decisive wins: Arsenal beat Coventry City 3–0, Brentford beat Tottenham Hotspur 3–0 and Hull City beat Manchester United 2–0. None matched Brighton’s four-goal margin.

The fixture was one of two Sunday matches, alongside Manchester City versus Bournemouth. That match ended 2–1, so Brighton’s game was the Sunday round’s more one-sided contest.
