When will Premier League 2021-22 fixtures be released?

The release of the fixture list often generates a great deal of excitement amongst supporters as it provides them with information regarding key clashes involving their clubs.

Whether it be the opening game of the season or the date when two major rivals meet, the eyes of fans and players alike will be on this year's announcement.

The fixtures for the Premier League 2021-22 will be released on Wednesday June 16, 2021. They will be available for everyone from 9am BST (4am ET) on that date.

The season itself starts on August 14th which is just over a month after the final of the European Championship which is set to take place at Wembley Stadium.

These Premier League fixtures could be subject to change due to TV scheduling with Sky Sports, BT Sport, Amazon Prime Video and BBC Sport set to broadcast games.

How many fixtures are there in Premier League 2021-22?

There will be 38 matchdays and a total of 380 fixtures will be confirmed on fixture release day, though they will be subject to change based on TV schedules and so forth.

Goal will have all the details, including opening day, big derby matches and everything else in between.

When will Premier League 2021-22 start?

The Premier League 2021-22 season will begin on Saturday August 14, 2021.

It will kick off roughly a month after the conclusion of Euro 2020, with the tournament final taking place on July 11, meaning some players will have a very short break before getting back into pre-season mode.

Ordinarily, footballers have around two months of an off-season before returning for pre-season training a month before the season is due to commence.

Scheduling has returned to normal following the disruption to the 2020-21 season caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, which saw the campaign start date moved back a month to September 2020.

List of All 20 Teams are involved in Premier League 2021-22?

A total of 20 teams will compete in the 2021-22 Premier League season, with three promoted teams replacing the three that were relegated in 2020-21.

Whilst the Premier League is set to wave goodbye to Fulham, Sheffield United and West Bromwich Albion following their respective relegations, it will welcome back two familiar faces later this year.

Norwich City's excellent displays under the guidance of Daniel Farke saw them win the Championship title whilst Watford also clinched an immediate return to the top-flight after securing automatic promotion.

The final spot will be filled by either Brentford, Barnsley, Swansea City or AFC Bournemouth who are all currently vying for play-off glory.

Below is the confirmed list of 20 teams who will feature in the top-flight during the 2021/22 campaign:

Arsenal, Aston Villa, Brighton & Hove Albion, Burnley, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Everton, Leeds United, Leicester City, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Newcastle United, Norwich City, Southampton, Tottenham Hotspur, Watford, West Ham United and Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Who are the favourites to win the Premier League title?

Having sauntered their way to the Premier League title earlier this month, it is hardly a surprise that Manchester City are currently the favourites to win it again next season according to Oddschecker.

Chelsea, who have experienced somewhat of a renaissance under the guidance of manager Thomas Tuchel in recent months, are second favourites ahead of Liverpool.

Manchester United are fourth favourites ahead of a Leicester City side who will be looking to build upon their recent FA Cup triumph next season.

Tottenham are sixth favourites whilst Arsenal are seventh on the list.

Below is a rundown of the latest odds:

Manchester City - 8/11

Chelsea - 11/2

Liverpool - 13/2

Manchester United - 8/1

Leicester City - 40/1

Tottenham Hotspur - 50/1

Arsenal - 80/1.

When will Premier League 2021-22 finish?

The 2021-22 Premier League season will conclude on Sunday May 22, 2022. All fixtures on that date will kick off simultaneously.

Fans of clubs in the Championship, League One and League Two will find out their fixtures a week later on Thursday, June 24.

The 2021/22 EFL season will kick-off on Saturday, August 7, meaning the Championship, League One, and League Two will all get underway a week before the top flight.

In a statement, the EFL said the first fixture of the new campaign would likely be televised on Friday, August 6, with Sky Sports to broadcast 138 live EFL games across the season.
