Leeds United Premier League 2025/26 fixtures

Leeds United will mark their return to the Premier League with the visit of Everton at Elland Road on the opening day of the 2025/26 season.

Leeds ended their two-year absence from the top-flight by pipping Burnley to the Championship title with an impressive 100-point tally.

The main priority for Daniel Farke's men will be to preserve their Premier League status come the end of the campaign, but they have been dealt a difficult first month which will see them encounter two sides who will be competing in the UEFA Champions League in Arsenal and Newcastle United.

Their first clash with a fellow promoted outfit is not until 18th October when they travel to Turf Moor to face Burnley.

The visit of Aston Villa on 22nd November marks the start of an extremely testing period in Leeds' season as they then face Manchester City, Chelsea and champions Liverpool in the space of a week.

Farke's outfit will encounter the other newly-promoted side in Sunderland in their first match after Christmas and Leeds' first game of 2026 is a mouth-watering tussle with old foes Manchester United at Elland Road.

The end of January also delivers a daunting set of fixtures as Leeds entertain Arsenal and Nottingham Forest before travelling to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea and Villa Park to oppose Aston Villa, before returning to home comforts with the visit of Manchester City.

Leeds head to Old Trafford a week after the Easter weekend on 11th April, where they secured a 2-2 draw on their last away trip against Manchester United.

The season concludes with a trip to the capital as they face West Ham at the London Stadium on 24th May.
