It is less than a month since Liverpool lifted the trophy on the last day of the 2024-25 campaign, and the release of the fixtures today marks the beginning of the countdown to a new season.
Arne Slot’s side will discover who they begin their title defence against as the Reds bid for a third league title in six years.
Sunderland are back in the top flight for the first time since 2016-17 after earning promotion through the play-offs, while Championship winners Leeds return after a two-year absence.
Burnley were promoted at the first time of asking and are back for a ninth season in the Premier League.
All 380 fixtures will be released on Wednesday, 18 June.
Fans will be able to see who their side face to start the 2025-26 Premier League season, how the festive schedule looks and who they have to contend with during a potentially crucial run-in.
When Does The Premier League Season Start?
The opening day of the 2025-26 season is Saturday, 16 August – by which time 83 days will have passed since there was last any Premier League action.
In previous years, the curtain-raiser has been moved to the Friday night.
In total, the campaign will consist of 33 weekends and five midweek rounds of fixtures.
It all concludes with the final round of fixtures on Sunday, 24 May 2026.
