Tottenham Hotspur will begin their Premier League campaign away to Brentford.
Last season saw the north London side escape relegation by only two points, and have three different head coaches at the helm.
Roberto De Zerbi replaced Igor Tudor in March, after Thomas Frank had left earlier in the season, and has already added defenders Marcos Senesi and Jan Paul van Hecke to his squad, with Pedro Porro having signed a new contract.
Their first test against a fellow Big Six side will come on away at Manchester United on the weekend of October 10-11. The first north London derby against rivals and Premier League champions Arsenal will take place on the first weekend of December at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, before the reverse fixture on the weekend of May 1-2.
They end the season away to Aston Villa.

A brutal ending to the season
Analysis by The Athletic’s Elias Burke
After starting and ending their season with a home fixture last season, it’s perhaps understandable that they should be on the road for the opening and climax in 2026-27.
They won’t have far to travel for their first game of the season, taking on Brentford in west London. Improving on last season’s trip to the Gtech Community Stadium shouldn’t be too hard, with Spurs and Brentford playing out a 0-0 draw that was surely a contender for the worst game played by any team, in any league, anywhere in the world last term.
Then it’s three home matches in their next four, which should, in theory, be a nice opportunity to put some points on the board, though the opposition is tricky: Newcastle (H), Nottingham Forest (A), Everton (H) and Aston Villa (H).
Tottenham have a dire record at Stamford Bridge, but Spurs fans will surely be getting out the red pens to circle their first fierce London derby on October 24-25. But they will have to wait until December 5 for the big one, the North London Derby, which will be played in front of a home crowd.
Spurs end 2026 with a two-game home stand against Bournemouth on Boxing Day, followed by Brighton on December 30. While a trip to the Etihad Stadium to face Manchester City is a cruel way to bring in 2027, a five-game run up to early February, where Spurs face Fulham, Leeds United, Crystal Palace, Sunderland and Ipswich Town, could be an opportunity to build momentum for the second half of the season.
And they might need it too, with a brutal run of fixtures to close. Spurs’ last five games of the season include trips to Arsenal and Aston Villa (on the final day) and home fixtures against Chelsea and Manchester United. An away match against Coventry City, which is sandwiched between those four matches, may be a welcome one, though Spurs only won two of their six games against promoted sides last season.
