The Amex Stadium hosted Brighton’s 4–0 victory over Aston Villa in the 2026–27 Premier League opener.
Brighton played Aston Villa at home on Sunday, 23 August 2026, and recorded one of the weekend’s largest wins. Jack Hinshelwood scored twice, while Maxim De Cuyper also scored and Aston Villa conceded an own goal.
The Amex Stadium is Brighton & Hove Albion’s home ground in Falmer, East Sussex. It opened in 2011 and is officially known as the American Express Stadium, although “the Amex” is the standard short form.
Villa Park, Gtech Community Stadium and Craven Cottage are all Premier League grounds, but they hosted different opening-weekend matches. Aston Villa’s ground is Villa Park, not the Amex.
