The Premier League fixtures for next season were officially revealed on Friday, with Manchester City hoping to defend their record-breaking crown.

City will start the season with a mouth watering trip to Arsenal on the opening day of the season (August 11th). They then have a fairly comfortable run, not facing any other top 6 side until October.

The first Manchester derby will take place on November 10th at the Etihad, with the reverse fixture at Old Trafford in March.

Pep Guardiola’s men have a fairly hectic start to 2019 ahead, with a home tie against Liverpool on New Year’s Day and fixtures against Arsenal and Chelsea back-to-back in February.

The Sky Blues will be the favourites to defend their title next season, and the fixture list certainly doesn’t provide too many stumbling blocks.
