Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal know they must get the better of Manchester City, Liverpool and Tottenham in big games to have any chance of winning the Premier League.

Now their new Premier League campaign kicks off at home on 16 August 2025, when Tottenham Hotspur host Burnley — a fixture that’ll test the new-look side under freshly appointed manager Thomas Frank.

Arsenal will need to navigate a tricky opening run to the 2025-26 Premier League season, beginning the season with a clash against Manchester United at Old Trafford. They then face away games against Liverpool and Newcastle United before a home clash with Manchester City.
