Leeds United scored the only goal in a 1–0 victory over Nottingham Forest during the 2026–27 Premier League opening weekend.
The match was played on Saturday, 22 August 2026. Leeds returned from the fixture with three points, while Nottingham Forest began the season without scoring and without collecting a point.
A 1–0 scoreline means Leeds scored once and Forest scored zero. It was one of the opening weekend’s narrowest results, alongside the 2–1 victories recorded by Ipswich Town and Manchester City, although those matches contained three goals in total.
Leeds’ win should not be confused with Everton’s 2–0 victory over Crystal Palace or Hull City’s 2–0 win against Manchester United. Those were also Saturday results, but neither involved Nottingham Forest.
