Defending Premier League champions Liverpool will kick off their 2025–26 campaign against Bournemouth.
The Reds cruised to the title in Arne Slot’s first season in charge, taking many by surprise to comfortably outgun Arsenal as Manchester City, the winners for the previous four years, endured an unexpected dip under Pep Guardiola.
Many fancy Liverpool to push on and challenge once more, with the imminent additions of Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez adding to the recent signing of Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen—the Dutchman’s arrival timely after Trent Alexander-Arnold’s departure to Real Madrid.
After facing Bournemouth first up, Liverpool face Newcastle United and Arsenal to finish off August, but many eyes will be drawn to the club’s first heavyweight showdowns of the season against Everton, City and beleaguered rivals Manchester United.
The two Merseyside derbies against Everton, one of which will be contested for the first time at the Toffees’ new 52,888 stadium, will be played in September and April, while the Reds’ first game against City shall be contested in November.
United, who finished 14th last season and will not play any European football during 2025–26, take on Liverpool in the months of October and May.
Liverpool close out their season on the final day of the season against Brentford.
