The first Manchester derby of the season has been handed a new date and kick-off time with Manchester United hosting Manchester City on Sunday, 13 September at 4.30pm.

The clash was provisionally scheduled for Saturday, 12 September at 3pm, but, as expected, the game has been moved for TV coverage and will take place the following day at 4.30pm.

United will travel to newly-promoted Hull City for their first game of the new campaign on Saturday, 22 August (12.30pm kick-off). After that they will host Ipswich Town in their first game of the season at Old Trafford before a trip to Hill Dickinson Stadium to face Everton.

Then comes the Manchester derby before a trip to Fulham. The Premier League have now confirmed the broadcaster picks for matchweeks 2-5 in the 2026/27 season, and all of the United games in that period have been moved.
