Manchester City begin the defence of their English Premier League title away to Newcastle, the same opposition they started their championship-winning campaign against with a 4-0 win last season, then face Liverpool at home.
The 2014/15 league fixtures were announced on Wednesday, with the season beginning on August 16 and 17.
Manchester United, with new Dutch manager Louis van Gaal, will play all three newly promoted sides – Burnley, Queens Park Rangers, Leicester – in their opening five games.
The first Manchester derby is at City on November 1.
Liverpool start off at home against Ronald Koeman’s Southampton, then travel to City and have another difficult away game against Tottenham. They host Merseyside rivals Everton on September 27, and encounter United for the first time at Old Trafford on December 13.
The Merseyside derby is not the only clash between fierce rivals scheduled for September 27. Arsenal also host Tottenham that day in the first clash of the season between the north London teams.
Arsenal follow that game by playing Chelsea on October 4, when new signing Cesc Fabregas will face his former club. Jose Mourinho’s side travel to City on September 20, and to Anfield on November 8.
Should Chelsea mount a title charge, they have perhaps the toughest finish, compared to their rivals. Chelsea go to Old Trafford in the reverse fixture against United, on April 18, and a week later play Arsenal at Stamford Bridge.
On May 9, they have Liverpool at home.
In comparison, City play none of last season’s top four in the final three months. Their toughest game in that time will most likely be when they make the short trip across Manchester to United on April 11.
Liverpool’s finish includes United at home on March 21, Arsenal away on April 4, and back in the capital for Chelsea in May.
Van Gaal has a tricky end to his first season at the helm of United, with City and Chelsea on April 11 and 18, respectively. That’s followed by an away trip to Everton. United’s penultimate game is against Arsenal at Old Trafford.

Emiratisation at work
Emiratisation was introduced in the UAE more than 10 years ago
It aims to boost the number of citizens in the workforce particularly in the private sector.
Growing the number of Emiratis in the workplace will help the UAE reduce dependence on overseas workers
The Cabinet in December last year, approved a national fund for Emirati jobseekers and guaranteed citizens working in the private sector a comparable pension
President Sheikh Khalifa has described Emiratisation as “a true measure for success”.
During the UAE’s 48th National Day, Sheikh Khalifa named education, entrepreneurship, Emiratisation and space travel among cornerstones of national development
More than 80 per cent of Emiratis work in the federal or local government as per 2017 statistics
The Emiratisation programme includes the creation of 20,000 new jobs for UAE citizens
UAE citizens will be given priority in managerial positions in the government sphere
The purpose is to raise the contribution of UAE nationals in the job market and create a diverse workforce of citizens

Tips for job-seekers
- Do not submit your application through the Easy Apply button on LinkedIn. Employers receive between 600 and 800 replies for each job advert on the platform. If you are the right fit for a job, connect to a relevant person in the company on LinkedIn and send them a direct message.
- Make sure you are an exact fit for the job advertised. If you are an HR manager with five years’ experience in retail and the job requires a similar candidate with five years’ experience in consumer, you should apply. But if you have no experience in HR, do not apply for the job.
