EPL Unveils 2024/2025 Festive Fixture Line-up

The English Premier League has revealed its highly anticipated festive fixture schedule, with a series of mouth-watering clashes set to light up December 2024 and January 2025.

Among the headline events are Manchester United’s trips to rivals Manchester City on 15 December and Liverpool on 5 January. Other stand-out fixtures include Tottenham Hotspur hosting both Chelsea on 8 December and Liverpool on 22 December, adding intensity to the top-four and title races.

Boxing Day (26 December) will feature 16 of the league’s 20 teams in action, although Brighton & Hove Albion versus Brentford, as well as Arsenal versus Ipswich, have been moved to 27 December. Arsenal will also face London rivals, Fulham and Crystal Palace, earlier in the month.

Additionally, City will welcome Chelsea to the Etihad Stadium on 25 January, marking one of the final big clashes of the festive period.

The extended rest periods between games ensure no club plays within 60 hours of another match, as part of the league’s commitment to player welfare.
