The big kick-off is at Anfield, as Liverpool host Bournemouth on Friday 15 August, while the action the following day includes Sunderland marking their return to the top division by facing West Ham United at the Stadium of Light, Aston Villa entertaining Newcastle United and Manchester City travelling to Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The appetiser on Sunday before we face Arsenal is an all-London affair, with Chelsea taking on Emirates FA Cup holders Crystal Palace, at Stamford Bridge.
The final match of the first gameweek is newly promoted Leeds United ushering in Premier League football at Elland Road again by tackling David Moyes's Everton.
