The first thing you notice on the way to Bramley-Moore Dock is the sea air blowing straight through your coat. There’s a proper sense of occasion as Everton take on Aston Villa at their new home, just as the last of the festive fairy lights start to come down across Liverpool. If you’ve had your fill of turkey and board games with the family, here’s a Tuesday night with actual excitement on the cards.
What’s the match?
It’s Premier League matchday 20, and Everton are at home against Aston Villa. Both teams are hungry for points after a crowded festive schedule. Expect a packed house at the new Everton Stadium: it’s starting to feel more like home with every game.
When is it on?
The match kicks off at 7.30pm sharp on Tuesday, 5 January 2027. Doors usually open well before, and if you’re planning to get your usual pre-match scran, there’s plenty around the waterfront (or bring your own butties if you don’t fancy queueing).
Where?
Everton Stadium, Bramley-Moore Dock, Liverpool. This is the club’s new home and it’s already making a big impression, right on the banks of the Mersey. If you haven’t been yet, it’s worth the trip for the view alone – bring a hat, it gets blowy down at the dock.
