Premier League Round 1 Schedule 2025/26: 'Big Battle' MU vs Arsenal

The 2025/26 Premier League season will officially begin in mid-August with a series of exciting matches in the first round. The highlight is the clash between MU and Arsenal at the "Theatre of Dreams" Old Trafford, taking place at 10:30 p.m. (Vietnam time) on Sunday, August 17.

Coach Ruben Amorim and his team will host Arsenal in what is considered a blockbuster match to open the season. This will be a tough test for Arsenal in their ambition to win the championship after three consecutive seasons of finishing second.

At the same time, it is also an opportunity for coach Mikel Arteta and his team to prove that they are ready to end their 22-year title drought.

Elsewhere, reigning champions Liverpool will begin their title defence by hosting AFC Bournemouth at Anfield. The Reds have an overwhelming record, winning seven of their last eight home games against Bournemouth, including a 9-0 win in 2022.

Liverpool then embark on a challenging run of fixtures against heavyweights Newcastle, Arsenal, Everton (Merseyside derby) and Chelsea – all in the opening two months of the season.
