Premier League fixtures to be released on Thursday

Yepp, and I will be looking forward to the Championship fixtures next season if we dont buy any players. :cry:
 
Manchester City and Manchester United will both be spared having to start their 2020-21 Premier League season on 12 September – but fellow European contenders Wolves will be in action on the opening weekend.

However, whilst City and United will have fixtures listed for the opening weekend, they will be moved as a result of the agreement amongst all Premier League clubs for every squad to get a minimum of 30 days between their final game of the 2019-20 season and their first of the new campaign.

Both Manchester clubs were knocked out of Europe last weekend, four weeks before the new campaign. It means, in theory, City could play on 15 September, with United in action the following night.

However, these dates clash with the EFL Cup second round, which Wolves are in after their failure to secure a top-six spot.

It is understood both Wolves and Chelsea felt they should have been given a delayed start on the basis their preparation for the new season would be severely hampered by the international break.

As City and United enter the EFL Cup at the third round stage on 22 September, with the fourth round the following midweek, the scope for re-arranging games is severely limited.

Tottenham are already aware if they get through the second qualifying round of the Europa League on 17 September, they will be involved in European competition and the EFL Cup during the following week and – potentially – the week after.

With Champions League and Europa League group games arranged for October, November and December, there are no spare midweek dates for the Premier League to slot spare fixture into until the end of January
 
Premier League fixtures opening weekend (exact dates to change)


Crystal Palace v Southampton (12 Sep)
Fulham v Arsenal (12 Sep)
Liverpool v Leeds United (12 Sep)
Tottenham Hotspur v Everton (12 Sep)
West Bromwich Albion v Leicester City (12 Sep)
West Ham United v Newcastle United (12 Sep)
Brighton v Chelsea (14 Sep)
Sheffield United v Wolves (14 Sep)
Burnley v Manchester United (later date)
Manchester City v Aston Villa (later date)
 
So United's and city's opening games dates still not announced?

Liverpool and Leeds should be a cracker.
I hope so, I looked for Leeds game/date before Liverpool and City games. Hopefully the fans will be back by then too, only 4 weeks to go!
 
Amazon Prime have tweeted to confirm the matches they will be showing live this season.

The streaming service will show the every game from matchday 13 live between 15 and 17 December.

Every game from matchday 16 between 28 and 30 December will also be live on Amazon, with two other games to follow later in the season.

The other live television selections for the early round of games are expected to be announced next week.

Every Premier League game was shown live during Project Restart, but that will not be the case when the 2020-21 begins next month, instead reverting back to the usual broadcast schedule.
