The Premier League is just weeks away and the fixtures have finally been announced. It’s all set to be an exciting start to the competition, and across the season there are plenty of key dates to be looking out for.

Newly promoted Leeds face as difficult of a start as is possible taking on champions Liverpool, while West Ham face a torrid first few weeks of the season, taking on Arsenal, Wolves, Leicester, Spurs, Manchester City and Liverpool in a row!

Below you’ll find all you need to know about the new Premier League fixtures, as well as the key dates and derbies to take note of across the season...

When Does The Premier League 2020/21 Season Start?

The Premier League gets underway on September 12, 2020 with almost a full set of fixtures across the weekend. It gets underway behind closed doors, although it is estimated that fans may be allowed inside stadiums later in the year.

The season will then finish on Sunday, May 23, 2021, just 19 days before the European Championships are scheduled to get underway.

The season is two weeks shorter than it would be usually, and therefore will see an additional two midweek games across the season.
