Analysis of Liverpool’s 2023/24 Premier League Fixture List
Liverpool will start their 2023/24 Premier League season away to Chelsea, with the full fixture list now announced. The Reds will be the first opponent for new Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino, with the game being the ‘Super Sunday’ clash at 4.30pm on August 13. The first home game of the season will be against Bournemouth, on the weekend of August 19, with 61,000 fans to be in attendance following the expansion of the Anfield Road Stand.
Liverpool’s Key Dates
The last ever Merseyside derby at Goodison Park takes place in March, with the home game against Everton in October. Liverpool will meet Man United for the first time in December (home) and Man City in November (away). The return fixtures against United are in April (away) and City in March (home). There’s three massive home games over festive period, against Man United, Arsenal and Newcastle.
A winter break in January means there’s just two fixtures, but there will be FA Cup fixtures added there. Six fixtures that proceed the Europa League games – those games against West Ham (H), Brighton (A), Nottm Forest (H), Brentford (H), Newcastle (H), and Man United (H) – will move to the Sunday, not the Saturday. All fixtures are subject to change as TV selections are made throughout the season – hopefully this time they learn to make them in a timely manner for travelling supporters!
