The Premier League fixtures have been announced this morning as Leeds United prepare for a second season back in the top tier of English football, after surviving relegation.
Leeds were promoted to the Premier League after winning the Championship title in 2024-25, with Daniel Farke earning a place in the club’s history. He went one better last season, even if the sack loomed.
Where will Leeds United finish next season? 📊📈
14th again would be a success – yes or no?
Leeds eventually finished in an incredibly solid 14th place. Alongside Sunderland, Leeds helped end the run of promoted sides being instantly relegated, with the previous six teams all going straight back down.
Now, Leeds are preparing to re-establish themselves in the Premier League with survival for a second campaign. The Whites have learned who they will face first on the weekend of Saturday, August 22.
Leeds United’s Premier League fixture list in full
Every Leeds fan will look towards their fixtures against bitter rivals Manchester United, but there is also an added rivalry ahead of the upcoming season. Frank Lampard has guided Coventry City to promotion.
The Sky Blues, like Leeds, secured the Championship title and the Spygate scandal under Marcelo Bielsa has created a rivalry between Leeds and Lampard, with Leeds fans singing ‘Stop Crying Frank Lampard’.
Now, Leeds have learned when they will play Manchester United, and when they will welcome Lampard back to Elland Road. Below, is the Premier League fixture list in full, as Leeds embark on a second season.
Leeds will face Man United at home on October 17th and away on May 15th, their third-last game. Leeds host Lampard first at the end of November, on the 28th, before going to Coventry at the end of January.

It looks like a decent-enough start for Leeds, going up against Forest away and Brentford at home in the first two games of the season. September sees Leeds face Brighton away, and then two home games.
October is somewhat daunting, facing Arsenal at The Emirates and Man United at home, before going to Sunderland and Bournemouth. The first four fixtures of January also look tough, even if three are at home.
Leeds host Everton and Man City, before going to Tottenham and then returning to Yorkshire to play against Chelsea. They finish January by taking on Frank Lampard’s Coventry on the 30th of January.
Like in October, Leeds face Arsenal and Man United back to back in May, before ending their season with a home match against Sunderland and then a trip back to the capital to take on Crystal Palace.
