Fulham's 2022/23 Premier League fixtures announced

Marco Silva's Fulham will mark their return to the Premier League by facing Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool in the first Saturday lunchtime kick-off slot of the season.

It will be at Craven Cottage, giving home fans the chance to see their team go up against a side who came within a single point of lifting the top flight trophy last season, meaning it will be a very tough task.

A first away day of the campaign comes the weekend after, as Fulham travel to Molineux to face Wolves, with two London derbies immediately after against Brentford and Arsenal respectively.

Brighton then comes next, before another two mammoth games against fellow sides from the capital, as Marco Silva's team first travel to Tottenham, before hosting Chelsea.

There's then the prospect of facing a side who also came up from the Championship last season in Nottingham Forest, and the first few games of October involve playing Newcastle United, West Ham and Bournemouth.

Throughout the whole of October the West London side don't have to face a single one of the so-called 'Big Six' teams, instead completing the month up against Aston Villa, Leeds United and Everton - not that those will be easy games either.

Of course, as a result of the World Cup taking place mid-season, there are then only two more games in November, and it's a very tough prospect, as an away day at Manchester City is followed by hosting Manchester United.

Coming back from that hiatus in Qatar, it's a Boxing Day meeting with South London rivals Crystal Palace, followed by games against Southampton and Leicester City either side of the New Year.

A trip to the North then beckons, with Newcastle the opponents, and then it's another back-to-back set of derbies against Tottenham, at home, and Chelsea away, making the short trip to Stamford Bridge.

Some more manageable games come next, with Nottingham Forest, Brighton, Wolves and Brentford taking Marco Silva's side into March.

Arsenal at home is the penultimate game before the final international break of the season, and then it's the daunting task of travelling to Merseyside to face a team who, along with City, took part in last year's thrilling title race.

April begins with Bournemouth away, with other games on the road including Everton and Aston Villa in that month, while at Craven Cottage there's the likes of West Ham, Leeds and Man City.

Finally, to round off the campaign, it's Leicester, Southampton and Palace, with the final game of the season - that may be pivotal depending on the state of the league table - coming away to Manchester United on 28th May 2023.
