Premier League champions Liverpool will face newly-promoted Leeds United on the opening weekend of the 2020/21 season but both Manchester City and Manchester United will sit out the first round of fixtures.
Manchester United’s Premier League fixtures for the 2020/21 season have been released and we’ll begin our campaign a week later than most other clubs.
The Reds’ extended involvement in the 2019/20 Europa League means the opening fixture away at Burnley has been postponed until later in the season.
Crystal Palace will, therefore, provide the first opposition of the new term, at Old Trafford on Saturday 19 September.
A trip to the south coast to play Brighton & Hove Albion is scheduled for the following Saturday, 26 September, before Jose Mourinho brings his Tottenham Hotspur side to M16 at the beginning of October.
Meanwhile, the Manchester derbies, meanwhile, are set for Saturday 12 December (Old Trafford) and Saturday 6 March (Etihad Stadium).
To complete the campaign, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side will welcome Fulham to the Theatre of Dreams on Saturday 15 May (also the day the Emirates FA Cup final is scheduled for at Wembley), before travelling to Molineux to face Wolverhampton Wanderers on the final day – Sunday 23 May.
