Arsenal will begin their title defence against Coventry City after the Premier League released the fixture list for the 2026/27 season.Â
The new campaign will open with a clash of the champions as the Gunners welcome Frank Lampard’s Championship-winning side to the Emirates Stadium on Friday, 21st August.Â
The first big London derby of the year is set for gameweek three, when Arsenal entertain Chelsea on 5th September.
Mikel Arteta’s men travel to Anfield for a meeting with Liverpool at the end of October and host Manchester City a month later.
December looks like a tricky month for Arsenal; they face Brentford away, followed by a North London Derby at Spurs and home games against Bournemouth and Manchester United. On Boxing Day they return to the scene of their trophy lift as they head to Selhurst Park to face Crystal Palace, before hosting Fulham in their final game of the year.
Arsenal’s second encounter with Spurs comes at the beginning of May, while they end the month, and the season, with Brighton at home.
