Arsenal Full 2026-2027 Premier League Fixtures

Arsenal will begin the defence of their Premier League title with a home fixture against Coventry City after the full 2026/27 schedule was released earlier today, June 19, 2026.

While the Gunners have avoided one of the traditional “big six” clubs on the opening weekend, there will be little opportunity to ease into the new campaign.

Mikel Arteta’s side open the season at the Emirates Stadium on August 21 before travelling to Aston Villa a week later. An early home meeting with Chelsea on September 5 is set to provide the first major examination of their title credentials.

The first heavyweight clash of the season takes place on October 31, when Arsenal travel to Liverpool. That encounter marks the beginning of a challenging stretch of fixtures that could have a significant impact on the title race.

Between late November and early February, Arsenal will face Newcastle United, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United, Manchester City again and Liverpool in quick succession. The outcome of that demanding sequence could go a long way in deciding whether the North London club can successfully defend the Premier League title.

Supporters will also be paying close attention to the North London Derby dates. Arsenal visit Tottenham on December 5 before welcoming their rivals to the Emirates on May 1. If both teams remain in contention for major honours, the return fixture could rank among the most important matches of the season.

The season ends at home against Brighton & Hove Albion on May 30, a fixture that could yet provide another memorable day for Arsenal supporters if silverware is still within reach.

Fixture dates remain subject to change because of television selections, domestic cup commitments and European competition.
