The Premier League fixtures for 2019/20 have been released.

While immediate attention is on the first and last days of the seasons, when are the games that are going to shape the title fight being played?

Manchester and Liverpool dominated the 2018-19 season, but fans will have to wait until November for their first match-up.

The fight for the top four promises to be as epic as ever, with clashes between the likely contenders starting on the opening weekend as Manchester United host Chelsea at Old Trafford.

The scheduled fixture dates at the time of writing are listed in the captions, although many of them will likely to change to accommodate timings for live television coverage in the UK.
