Which club recorded the largest victory of the 2026–27 Premier League opening matchweek?

Brighton & Hove Albion recorded the largest victory of the 2026–27 Premier League opening matchweek.

Brighton defeated Aston Villa 4–0 on Sunday 23 August 2026. The four-goal margin was the biggest winning difference among the ten opening-round fixtures.

The result gave Brighton three points, four goals scored, and a clean sheet. Those figures placed the club at the top of the early table on goal difference after the opening round.

Other prominent winners included Arsenal and Brentford, who both won 3–0. Everton and Hull City each won 2–0, while several matches were decided by one goal or finished level.

The phrase “largest victory” refers to winning margin, not necessarily the highest total number of goals in a match. Brighton’s 4–0 success was both a four-goal match total for the winner and the round’s widest margin, making the answer distinct from the 3–0 results.
