Liverpool will begin their Premier League title defense at Anfield against Bournemouth on Friday, August 15, kicking off the 2025/26 season.
Arne Slot’s side will have the first opportunity to earn points in the new campaign, opening the league in front of their home fans. After facing Bournemouth, Liverpool will encounter tougher challenges, with away and home fixtures against Newcastle and Arsenal, respectively.
On Saturday, August 16, Thomas Frank will take charge of his first match as Tottenham manager, hosting newly promoted Burnley. That same day, Sunderland marks their return to the Premier League with a clash against West Ham.
The third promoted side, Leeds, is scheduled to face Everton on Monday, August 18.
Meanwhile, Manchester United, now under the management of Ruben Amorim, will face a high-profile test to start the season as they welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford on August 17. United will be eager to rebound from a disappointing league campaign last season.
The 2025/26 Premier League season will conclude on May 24, with notable fixtures including Manchester City taking on Aston Villa.
