Reds Await Premier League Fixtures Release

The 2017/18 season will appear a step closer on Wednesday when Manchester United's Premier League fixtures are revealed on ManUtd.com and in a special live show on MUTV at 09:00 BST.

Although live television coverage will subsequently require a number of dates and times to be changed, the Reds will at least discover a broad outline of what lies in wait during Jose Mourinho's second year in charge.

Newcastle United, Brighton & Hove Albion and Huddersfield Town have been promoted from the Championship, replacing Hull City, Middlesbrough and Sunderland who have all dropped out of the top flight.

A trip to Wembley is certain to be on the agenda for United with Tottenham Hotspur staging their home fixtures at the national stadium while their new White Hart Lane venue is completed.

The Premier League campaign will begin on the weekend commencing Saturday 12 August 2017 and end on Sunday 13 May 2018.
