The start and end dates for the season were released on 25 March 2021. The fixtures are set to be released on Wednesday 16 June 2021 at 09:00 BST. Manchester City are the defending champions, having won their fifth Premier League title in the previous season .
When will the Premier League end?The season was initially scheduled to start on 8 August 2020 and end on 16 May 2021, but this was delayed until 12 September as a consequence of the postponement of the previous season's conclusion due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
How many matches are in the Premier League?The winners of the Premier League each season are decided in a pretty straightforward way. Every team in the group plays each other twice across the season - once at each team's ground, so it's fair. Each team will play a total of 38 matches. If a team wins a match, it gets 3 points. If it's a draw, both teams get 1 point.
