Which match ended 2–2 on Sunday during the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend?
Answer
Newcastle United v Liverpool
Newcastle United versus Liverpool ended 2–2 on Sunday during the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.
The match took place on Sunday 23 August 2026 at St James’ Park in Newcastle upon Tyne. It was the final Sunday fixture, following Brighton’s 4–0 win over Aston Villa and Manchester City’s 2–1 victory against Bournemouth.
The draw gave both clubs one point rather than three. Each team scored twice, making the fixture the only Sunday match in the opening round that did not produce a winner. The result also stood out because it paired two historically prominent English clubs in a high-scoring opening-day contest.
It should not be confused with the Monday meeting between Fulham and Chelsea, which finished 2–3, or Manchester City’s 2–1 home win. Newcastle’s home venue is St James’ Park, while Liverpool’s regular home is Anfield, so the listed order reflects Newcastle as the host.
