Premier League fixtures 2026-27: Opening weekend, derbies and final day

The Premier League fixture list for 2026-27 has been released, with Arsenal set to defend their title while Manchester City, Liverpool and Manchester United aim to regain or retain top honours. Coventry return to the top flight after a 25-year absence, and a number of managerial changes promise new eras across the division.

The opening weekend throws up eye-catching ties. Arsenal start at home against Coventry at the Emirates, Hull City host Manchester United and Liverpool travel to St James’ Park, while other early fixtures include Manchester City v Bournemouth and Fulham v Chelsea.

Several traditional rivalries are spread through the season. West London neighbours Chelsea and Fulham meet on the first Monday Night Football, United entertain City in September, Liverpool go to the Hill Dickinson Stadium in November and Newcastle host Sunderland in early December, the same weekend Tottenham visit Arsenal.
