Manchester City announce 2026/27 Premier League fixtures

Manchester City will commence their 2026/27 Premier League campaign with a home match against Bournemouth on August 23. This fixture marks the beginning of a new era for the club following Pep Guardiola's tenure. The match will be broadcast live on Sky Sports, allowing fans to witness the start of the season from the comfort of their homes.

City's early schedule includes a visit to Crystal Palace for their second match and a home game against newly promoted Coventry City. The first Manchester derby will take place on September 12 at Old Trafford, with the return fixture scheduled for March 20. These matches are expected to be pivotal as City looks to establish their position in the league.

The first half of the season presents several challenging away fixtures for City. They will travel to Liverpool and Aston Villa in October, followed by an away game against Arsenal in November. These matches will test the squad as they face off against last season's top five teams early in the season.

In December, City will face Chelsea twice, with the first match at home and the second away in April. The festive period includes a Boxing Day trip to Newcastle, while the season wraps up with a visit to Sunderland in May. Fans can look forward to an exciting season ahead with a variety of fixtures scheduled throughout the year.
