The festive schedule brings Brighton to Craven Cottage on Boxing Day, followed by Arsenal on 30 December. Tottenham visit on six January.

The summer transfer window opened on Monday, fifteen June and closes on Tuesday, one September at 11pm BST. The winter window runs from Friday, one January to Friday, one February at 11pm GMT.

The season begins with the Community Shield between league champions Arsenal and FA Cup winners Manchester City on Sunday, 16 August. The Carabao Cup second round features the 11 Premier League clubs not in Europe, with the nine European qualifiers joining in round three, both scheduled for August.

The 2026-27 Premier League campaign concludes on Sunday, 30 May 2027.
