Chelsea will begin the defense of the title at Stamford Bridge against Swansea. Jose Mourinho’s side last season ended with eight points ahead of a second-placed Man City, and the season 2015/2016 the Blues will open against Gary Monk’s men.
Louis van Gaal and Manchester United will start a new season with “small” derby at home against Tottenham, while Liverpool have a chance to avenge the bitter defeat in the last round against Stoke City, again at Britannia.
One of the favorites for the title next season Manchester City will open a new season away at WBA, while Arsenal will host West Ham United who appointed the Croat Slaven Bilic as their new coach.
The league “rookie” Bournemouth will host Aston Villa, while another “rookie” Watford will open a new season against Everton, away. Norwich City will host Crystal Palace. Steve McClaren as Newcastle United’s new boss will play the first game at the St. James Park against last year’s “hit” Southampton, while Leicester City will host Sunderland.
