      Liverpool FC 2017/18 Fixtures.
      Jun 13, 2017 08:53:45 pm



      Tomorrow at 9am the EPL will release fixture for next season, this is fake news as at 9:05 BT & Sky will then release their official fixture list.

      The new Premier League season kicks off on the weekend of August 12/13 and finishes on Sunday, May 13, 2018.

      Well, for the 1st game who and where do you want us to play?

      Southampton (A) is surely the fixture computers idea of a sick joke for the opener....

      It does not matter 1 iota who we play in the first match,if we want to see number 19 arrive at Anfield we have got to have a  positive attitude and go out and beat every other team.It is up to Fenway to back Jürgen Klopp  and bring the players in that we desperately need  to make sure we get off to a winning start home or away

      So first game is Watford away with palace first home game followed by Arsenal and then Man City.

      See we also play the manc cu*ts at Anfield on Oct 14.

      First derby also at Anfield which is December 9.

      One thing I noticed is there isn't a month in which you can say the fixtures are ridiculous like we could last season. All the big games are spread out.

      Tough list. Last 5 away games of the season feature the mancs, the neighbours, and Chelsea last away game.

      7 games in December and a European game, and probably a League Cup game, so you could be looking at 9 games there, including 2 long treks to Brighton and Bournemouth, and the usual complaints about lack of rest, small squad etc. Arsenal and Burnley away begin and end the Christmas schedule.

      Not many highlights, but the trip to City is over early, and we have Brighton at home last day. Time to relegate someone else.

      Same thoughts.

      That is a great fixture list. No difficult period throughout. Start, end, and even Christmas/January are all fine.

      No excuses (well, until TV broadcasters start shifting the fixtures around).

      December & 1st Jan looks ridiculous.

      8 games in a month, 2 trips to the south coast plus London. That's a tough schedule.

      So Man City (A) on Sep 9 with CL group game 1 that midweek

      Oct 14 - Man U (H) with CL 3 midweek followed by Spurs (A) is a tough run of 3

      CL5 in Nov just before Chelsea (H)

      and CL6 just before the derby on Dec 9

      Could be worse groupings CL game wise - the 'advantage' if there is one, is that we are playing teams in the CL before or after - so no excuse of opponents being fresher

      It is normal to have so many games, and I don't give any care to long distant travel which is a couple of hours at most. Come on, no excuses there.

      The EPL have increased the number of games around the end of December.
