2024/25 Premier League schedule biggest games: Manchester City, United, Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea...
The 2024/25 Premier League season gets underway on Friday, August 16, with Manchester United taking on Fulham at Old Trafford in the opening fixture. Traditionally the most successful club in England, the Red Devils have been forced to watch neighbours Manchester City take that crown in recent seasons, with Pep Guardiola’s side expected to be the team to beat once again.
What happened in the 2023/24 Premier League?
Last term, City became the first club in the History of English soccer to win four successive top-flight titles and they are the firm favourites to make it five in a row this time around. That said, Arsenal ran them close, finishing only two points behind, while Liverpool were also in the title race up until the last few weeks of the season, eventually ending up nine points behind.
Can The Reds’ transition from Jürgen Klopp to Arne Slot be smooth enough to keep them challenging at the top end of the table?
As for United, who have won a record 20 top-flight titles, the less said about their Premier League performance the better. Although Erik Ten Hag’s team defeated City to win the FA Cup, they finished all the way down in eighth position in the league, 31 points behind the champions and with a negative goal difference. The only way is up, surely?
Chelsea, another club that have had aspirations of winning the title in the recent past, finished strongly to end up in sixth but have had another turbulent summer. The Blues parted ways with manager Mauricio Pochettino, replacing him with Italian Enzo Maresca, who led Leicester City to the Championship title in style last season but has never managed in the Premier League.

The Premier League has only revealed which Games will be broadcast on television up until the end of October, which means some fixtures from November onwards will almost certainly be moved, with many likely to be played on Sundays.
Is there a winter break in the 2024/25 Premier League?
For the first time since 2018/19, there will be no winter break in the Premier League this season. Instead, there are longer summer breaks before and after the campaign, as well as more days between matches during the Christmas and New Year period, one of the busiest on the calendar.
