After Liverpool‘s emotional win over Bournemouth on Friday night, the first Saturday game of the 2025-26 Premier League season saw 10-man Aston Villa hold Newcastle United to a 0-0 draw after Ezri Konsa was sent off and the visitors struggled without star striker Alexander Isak, who is courting a move to Liverpool.
Later, Brighton and Hove Albion face Fulham, Sunderland are at home to West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur face off against Burnley, before Manchester City take on Wolves in the late game. Can Tottenham overcome the disappointment of losing a two-goal lead to Paris Saint-Germain to miss out on another trophy in the UEFA Super Cup? How will Sunderland and Burnley fare back in the Premier League? And how will Pep Guardiola’s Man City start their season after a pretty poor campaign last time out?
Elsewhere, not all the major leagues across Europe are back in action yet after a summer break, but Barcelona begin their LaLiga campaign against Mallorca (stream live on ESPN+) and VfB Stuttgart take on the giants of Bayern Munich in the German Super Cup (also live on ESPN+).
Join us for all the highlights and big moments from today’s action.
