Which team lost 0–1 at home to Leeds United during the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend?

Nottingham Forest lost 0–1 at home to Leeds United during the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.

The match took place at the City Ground on Saturday 22 August 2026, with Nottingham Forest as the home side and Leeds United as the visitors. Leeds’ narrow away victory gave them three points, while Forest began the campaign without a point.

The 1–0 result was the opening round’s only away victory by a single goal. It also produced a clean sheet for Leeds and left Nottingham Forest scoreless. That makes the fixture distinct from the other Saturday 15:00 matches: Everton beat Crystal Palace 2–0, while Ipswich Town defeated Sunderland 2–1.

Nottingham Forest’s home ground is the City Ground, located beside the River Trent in West Bridgford. Leeds played at Elland Road in their own home fixtures, so the wording “lost 0–1 at home” identifies Forest specifically. This match should not be confused with Brighton’s 4–0 home victory or the Newcastle-Liverpool 2–2 draw played on Sunday.
