Tottenham Hotspur

The Premier League has confirmed when the fixtures for the 2025/26 season will be released.

Following the conclusion of the 2024/25 campaign, eyes are already beginning to turn to the new season and what that could bring - and now we know when we will find out our schedule for the new term.

With all 20 teams now confirmed for 2025/26, our fixture list will be revealed on Wednesday 18 June at 9am (UK).

On that morning we will learn the provisional dates for all of our fixtures but, as always, fixtures are subject to change.

As always, we'll bring you the fixtures across our channels that morning so stay connected with us on tottenhamhotspur.com and the Spurs Official App.

One competitive fixture which is already in the diary is the UEFA Super Cup Final which will see us travel to Udine, Italy, in search of another European trophy. On 13 August, we shall take on the winners of the UEFA Champions League for the prize of the Super Cup.

We also have the UEFA Champions League to look forward to as we have qualified for the League Phase of the competition through our UEFA Europa League victory.

The draw for the League Phase will take place on 26 August, 2025, with the first games set to be played on 16 September, 2025.

The 19 teams we shall face in the 2025/26 Premier League campaign have now been finalised.

With Leicester City, Ipswich Town and Southampton all suffering relegation from the top flight to the English Football League Championship, they have been replaced with three new sides from the second tier in Leeds United, Burnley and Sunderland.

The three sides of course join us and the league's 16 other teams - AFC Bournemouth, Arsenal, Aston Villa, Brentford, Brighton & Hove Albion, Chelsea, Crystal Palace, Everton, Fulham, Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City, Newcastle United, Nottingham Forest, West Ham United and Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Beginning with the Championship winners Leeds United, the Whites stormed the division to bounce back from Play-Off Final heartbreak in 2024 to record 100 points and take the league title.

After a significant exodus of players in the summer, including the departure of young star Archie Gray who joined us in July, 2024, Leeds rebuilt quickly and, under Daniel Farke and with the help of Manor Solomon, cleaned up in the Championship, sweeping countless teams aside to take top spot and earn a return to the Premier League.

It marks a return to the top flight for United after two years away following their 2023 relegation. That season we completed the double of the Whites with a 4-3 win at home and a 4-1 win away - a final day victory which was also Harry Kane and Lucas Moura's final appearances for the Club.

Watch - Leeds United 1-4 Spurs | May, 2023

Like Leeds, it would also be fair to say Burnley stormed the league as they also recorded 100 points to earn promotion, finishing second behind the Whites on goal difference. It is the first time in the history of the Championship that two sides have recorded at least 100 points.

Under the stewardship of our former midfielder Scott Parker, who made 63 appearances for us between 2011 and 2013, winning our Player of the Season award in his first year, the Clarets have earned an immediate return to the Premier League after their 2024 relegation.

The side where Wilson Odobert began the season, scoring in their opening weekend win at Luton Town, their attack is now supported by another Spurs connection as former Academy player Marcus Edwards moved to Turf Moor in January. He scored once in their last 15 games as they went on an unbeaten to finish as runners up.

We last faced Burnley in May, 2024, running out 2-1 winners in N17 thanks to goals from Pedro Porro and Micky van de Ven having won 5-2 at Turf Moor in the September.

Watch - Spurs 2-1 Burnley | May, 2024

Finally, Sunderland complete the Premier League line up for 2025/26 after they sealed promotion on Saturday via the Play-Offs.

Defeating Sheffield United 2-1 at Wembley, the Black Cats ended an eight-year hiatus away from the top flight and - like their fellow promoted sides - did so with the help of the Spurs Alumni as Academy graduates Dennis Cirkin and Romaine Mundle both played their part in the Mackems' promotion campaign.

The last time we faced Sunderland, we drew 0-0 at the Stadium of Light in a Premier League trip to the north east in January, 2017, having defeated them 1-0 at White Hart Lane in September, 2016.

Watch - Spurs 1-0 Sunderland | September, 2016

We are pleased to confirm that our men’s first team will face Newcastle United in Korea this summer as part of the 2025 Coupang Play Series.

We announced last week that we’ll be visiting Korea during our pre-season tour of Asia, where we’ll participate in the Coupang Play Series for a third time.

It has now been confirmed that this season’s Carabao Cup winners, Newcastle, will be our opponents in what is their debut appearance in the tournament, organised and promoted each year by Coupang and Pitch International.

Details on the date, venue and tickets for the match will be announced in due course.

This will be our fifth visit to Korea, where the Club is regarded as the country’s best-supported overseas team. We have previously taken part in the Coupang Play Series in 2022 and 2024.

As is Club tradition, players and staff will be engaging with our fans, supporting good causes, and celebrating local culture throughout our time in Korea.

We shall be working with AIA, the Club’s Global Principal Partner, as part of its mission to deepen engagement with AIA communities across Asia and promote health and well-being, as well as additional partners in the region such as Alipay+, whose logo will feature on the back of the shirt.

Alongside this, the Club’s Global Football Development coaches will deliver our renowned technical programme for local young players and coach education workshops, showcasing the authentic training methods developed within the Club’s Academy, helping young players to reach their full potential.

Ange Postecoglou paid his respects to the legends who formed a guard of honour to greet the team back from Bilbao with the UEFA Europa League trophy on Sunday.

What a moment as Heung-Min Son was welcomed by the likes of all-time greats Steve Perryman, Pat Jennings, Martin Chivers and Graham Roberts who, in Steve’s absence through suspension, lifted the trophy the last time we won it back in 1984. How apt also that Keith Burkinshaw, manager of that 1984 team, who also landed the FA Cup in 1981 and 1982, was also there to meet Ange.

“It was brilliant,” said Ange. “All these guys have been really supportive of me, they’ve all reached out at different times, and they are our inspiration. I kept talking to the players and showing them the photos in the hallways, photos of all the guys who have achieved what this club has been craving for so many years. They were the inspiration - now this group of players gets the privilege of joining them.”

Ange Postecoglou said the last few days had been ‘overwhelming’ after our European triumph before stating that our Premier League finale against Brighton was all about ‘thanking and acknowledging the fans’.

On the pitch, we started well as fans celebrated our UEL success at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Dominic Solanke confidently tucked home another penalty to open the scoring on 17 minutes after Mathys Tel was brought down by Mats Wieffer. Tel was denied a second by Bart Verbruggen’s smart save to his left and, as Ange suggested later in his press conference, that could have made the difference.

However, Brighton, still chasing Europe, turned things around in the second half as two goals from Jack Hinshelwood (51, 60), Matt O’Riley’s late penalty (88) and a thunderbolt from Diego Gomez (90+3) saw them home 4-1 victors.

Speaking to us afterwards, Ange reflected: “The game didn’t go the way we wanted, but I don’t think it spoiled it too much for the fans. The key thing was more about thanking them, acknowledging them and that what we’ve achieved they remember for the right reasons.”

Ange was asked in his press conference if the players had ‘run out of steam’ after the pure emotion of the last few days. “Obviously, the players were allowed to celebrate, but irrespective of that, the emotions of the last three days meant it was always going to be a tricky one for us,” he said.

“First half we competed well, we could have had a second goal, which would've made it easier for us, even second half Brennan's got a good opportunity, but you could tell in the last 35 minutes that we ran out of legs, and that was kind of understandable for the players.”

Back to the celebrations, and we asked Ange if he ever thought he’d see the scenes he has since Bilbao, particularly the outpouring of emotions at Friday’s parade.

“It’s been overwhelming, whether that was the emotion we saw in Bilbao or the parade, it was unbelievable,” he said. “Even today, it’s probably the thing that gives me the greatest pride, being part of something that has given so much joy to so many.

“These people (supporters) have been the constant. Players, managers have come and gone, but these people have been here the whole time and that’s all they’ve wanted, to see their football club do what others were doing, and to be able to wake up the next day and say, ‘my football club has also won something’.”

Our 2024/25 Premier League campaign ended on a disappointing note as we suffered a 4-1 home reverse to Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday afternoon.

After one of the greatest weeks in the Club’s history as we celebrated Europa League success, a difficult league season concluded with another defeat as the visitors hit four unanswered goals in the second half after we’d led at half-time through a Dominic Solanke penalty.

The hectic week and long season probably took its toll in the second period as Jack Hinshelwood netted twice, Matt O’Riley converted a penalty and Diego Gomez scored a fine goal in the final minutes to give the Seagulls all three points and ensuring we finished the campaign in 17th place in the table.

The afternoon was always going to be one of celebration though following Wednesday glory, glory night in Bilbao and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was a sea of blue and white flags as the game got underway. The visitors had the first shot across the bows although it was wayward from Simon Adingra with three minutes gone and we grew into the game, taking the lead from the penalty spot in the 17th minute. We won the ball back in midfield and shifted out quickly to Mathys Tel who advanced into the box and was brought down by Mats Wieffer as he cut inside. Up stepped Solanke, once again cool as you like, to slam the spot-kick into the roof of the net.

Guglielmo Vicario was called into his first serious action when he had to punch clear Hinshelwood’s flick on from a Yasin Ayari corner on the half hour, while we should have doubled our lead eight minutes later. It was a swift counter-attack, Pedro Porro leading the charge and slipping a pass through to release Tel, however his right-footed effort was well saved by Bart Verbruggen in the Brighton goal.

We were pegged back six minutes into the second half following a scrappy equaliser. Brajan Gruda delivered the corner, Adam Webster’s header hit Solanke and landed at the feet of Hinshelwood who drilled past Vicario from inside the six yard box. Vicario then had to stop Gomez’s drive as Brighton enjoyed a good spell, however we almost regained the lead after brilliant work down the left flank from Tel, bursting clear and cutting the ball back for our hero in Bilbao, Brennan Johnson, who side-footed wide when he should have hit the target.

Back at the other end, Kevin Danso produced a wonderful block to deny Yankuba Minteh, who was then thwarted by a great save from Vicario before Carlos Baleba’s 22-yard volley took a slight deflection on its way to hitting the post. The pressure was building from the visitors and that told on 64 minutes when another corner ricocheted off Danso to Hinshelwood, who produced a clever backheel from close range to make it 2-1.

We made a number of changes to freshen things up for the final stages as a crazy week started to take its toll but a challenge from Yves Bissouma on Gomez led to a penalty for the Seagulls which substitute O’Riley converted. The visitors added a fourth in stoppage time, Gomez with an excellent 25-yard ping into the top corner, disappointing of course, but that was the signal for a chorus of ‘When the Spurs Go Marching In’ as our fans began the post-match Europa League winners’ celebrations early.

We can confirm the starting line-ups and substitutes for this afternoon's season finale against Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League (kick-off 4pm).

Ange Postecoglou has made three changes to the side that started the UEFA Europa League final in our previous outing as our newly-crowned European champions return to play at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for the first time since bringing the trophy home from that glorious night in Bilbao.

Kevin Danso starts at centre-back in the absence of the injured Cristian Romero, Archie Gray comes into midfield for Yves Bissouma who makes the bench after shaking off a knock and Mathys Tel is a straight swap for Richarlison in attack.

With captain Heung-Min Son also ruled out through injury, Guglielmo Vicario leads the side out in N17.

Our full line-up is as follows...

Starting XI: Vicario (c), Pedro Porro, Danso, van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Gray, Sarr; Johnson, Solanke, Tel.

Substitutes: Kinsky, Spence, Davies, Bissouma, Olusesi, Ajayi, Moore, Odobert, Richarlison.

Chairman Daniel Levy provides his regular end-of-season message for supporters in our official matchday programme for today’s match against Brighton & Hove Albion...

Dear all,

We did it. What an unforgettable night it was in Bilbao as we ended our long wait for glory.

This is a huge moment for the whole Club, an historic achievement that sees us lift our first European trophy since 1984.

This Club has been on an incredible journey on and off the pitch since we last won silverware, the League Cup, in 2008 – establishing ourselves as one of the biggest in Europe, moving into our new stadium and experiencing some incredible moments – we knew a trophy was the missing piece.

We’ve come so close on a number of occasions and never quite got over the line – I have never wavered from the belief that success is just around the corner.

I’d like to thank Ange and the players for making this incredible achievement possible and thanks to all of our amazing staff – there is so much hard work that goes on behind the scenes and this moment is for everyone to enjoy.

I’d also like to thank you – the fans – for staying with us and carrying that same belief. I know it’s been hard at times and I have shared in that pain and frustration along the way. But when we all come together, we know we can achieve something special.

Your support – whether that was in Bilbao, in our own stadium or in pubs and homes around the world – was the driving force behind our team.

This is one trophy – our clear ambition as a Club has always been long-term, sustained success, competing for top honours every year. We have now tasted success and we are determined to use this as a springboard for more.

Let’s enjoy this moment as a Club together, finish the season strong with a win today and go again next year.

Most of all, be proud. Come on you Spurs!

Daniel
