25th Nov - EL 5

28th Nov - Watford home

 

9th Dec - EL 6

Quite shit that 4 of them are away games but I suppose they're not the worst fixtures to contend with.

 

Just shite that Brentford and Leeds will be on a Sunday or Monday.

Why do we always play wolves at home as our first match

[StanSP]

Spurs, Everton, Man City, Liverpool all within 2 weeks of each other in 2nd half of Dec. 

 

Then it's an 'easier' January of Norwich, Burnley, Brighton. 

Before Liverpool, West ham, Wolves and Chelsea in Feb. 

 

 

[Leicester_Loyal]

Hopefully a full house for Brentford in October, none of them really interests me until then (except Norwich in August, but I'm meant to be away for it).

[Stuntman_Mike]

I'm happy with that tbf. 

Looks a lot more balanced than last season 

[Bert]

There’s an actual chance we might not get moved for tv for the first round of fixtures.

Apart from last season 

[Harry96]

Happy with those 

[Ric Flair]

Finally a kind run-in and yet we'll be desperately trying to chase the top 6 rather than protecting our position in it.

[StanSP]

Norwich's first four... 

 

Liverpool h

Man City a

Leicester h

Arsenal a

 

[moore_94]

December probably our worst run of fixtures next season?

 

 

[Bert]

Man Utd play none of the “big 6” until October 23. The rest all seem to play one of them within the first 3 games. 

[Brainy]

Interesting that Watford in the penultimate fixture is already listed as being on a Sunday? Maybe falling in line with some other European leagues where the last couple of games (as opposed to the final game) are all played at the same time? Or is the FA Cup final the day before?

Most definitely. 

 

It's good that other than that, there's no regular run of games against the bigger teams unlike Man Utd, Norwich, Brentford, Leeds, Man City, Villa, Newcastle, Everton, Chelsea, Burnley, Watford looking at that! 

 

They all have runs in the season against the 'top six' at some point.

FA Cup final 28th May I think.

Welcome to the premier league 

[Koke]

We have all the big 6 at home first. I prrefered a mix tbh. I don't like playing all of them away in the second half of the season. The good news is our last 3 games are winnable for once. 

[Fox in the North]

Quite pleased with the spread of those fixtures for a change and a nicer final 3 games! 

[Dan]

That's probably as generous a fixture list as we could've had.

Yeah that on the flip side isn't great.

Christmas run looks horrible. Was the back-to-back Liverpool Man City fixtures which seemed to affect us in 19/20 (think we had Norwich in the run too!).

Wasn’t bad in 15/16 though despite the results 

[StanSP]

Just realised Chelsea will have the Club World Cup to contend with in December. Not sure of the dates but may impact their season and fixture congestion. 

[Mark]

Anyone know why the last two games are both on Sunday? Usually its just the final day.

[shailen]

I'm just glad we don't play any of the so called big 6 in our last few games. If we are going for top 4 next season, it will be a big advantage.
