Premier League derby dates and fixtures for the 2026/27 season

The Premier League dates and fixtures for every derby in the 2026/27 season have been released. 

The new campaign will see Xabi Alonso begin his tenure as Chelsea manager with a West London Derby as the Blues make the short trip to Craven Cottage for a meeting with Fulham on the opening Monday night.

Michael Carrick’s Manchester United will welcome Manchester City to Old Trafford just three weeks into the season when both sides will have new permanent head coaches in the dugout.

Liverpool will play their two biggest local rivals on consecutive weekends as they travel to Everton on 21st November before welcoming Manchester United to Anfield on 28th November. The same will happen again in January.

We have to wait until 5th December for the first North London Derby of the year when Spurs entertain Premier League champions Arsenal at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

There will be two derbies on the final day of the season as Chelsea host Brentford while newly-promoted Coventry City entertain Midlands rivals Nottingham Forest on 30th May.
