Newcastle United secured a commanding 3-1 Premier League victory over Brighton and Hove Albion at St James’ Park on Saturday, 2 May 2026, in Round 35 of the English top-flight season. Three goals for the home side against Brighton’s single reply gave Newcastle a decisive winning margin at one of English football’s most atmospheric venues, extending their mid-table Premier League position as the season entered its final weeks. The result continued Newcastle’s competitive domestic form in a season where their Carabao Cup semi-final exit to Manchester City had been the most disappointing moment.
St James’ Park, with its capacity exceeding 52,000 and one of the Premier League’s most engaged and vocal supporter communities, provided the kind of intense home atmosphere that Newcastle’s performances throughout the 2025-26 season had generated. Three goals from the Toon — with Bruno Guimaraes, Nils Woltemade, and Harvey Barnes among the key contributors available to Eddie Howe’s squad — gave the home side a comprehensive winning margin that reflected their quality in front of their own supporter community.
Brighton, who ultimately finished eighth in the Premier League and qualified for the UEFA Conference League play-off round, came into the fixture with their own end-of-season objectives but could not prevent a comfortable Newcastle home victory. Watch highlights on AllSportsZone.
