BURNLEY will begin their 2017/18 Premier League campaign against champions Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

The new seasons kicks off on the weekend of August 12/13 and the Clarets face a daunting set of fixtures on the road in the opening weeks of the season.

After facing Antonio Conte's record-breaking title winners they return to Turf Moor on the second weekend against West Brom, but a week later they face runners-up Tottenham Hotspur, who will be playing at Wembley next season.

Then comes a home game against Crystal Palace before another difficult looking trip to face Liverpool at Anfield.

Indeed four of Burnley's first five away games next season are against the sides who finished the top four last season, with Manchester City away on October 21.

The only respite from that run is a trip to Goodison Park to face Everton, who finished seventh last year, on September 30. Burnley will welcome newly-promoted Huddersfield Town to Turf Moor the weekend before that.

It's a packed festive programme this year with four games in 10 days between December 23 and January 1.

The Clarets begin that run at home to Tottenham before heading to Old Trafford to face Manchester United on Boxing Day.

On Saturday, December 30 they are away at Huddersfield before returning to Turf Moor on New Year's Day to face Liverpool.

Two of the three scheduled midweek rounds in the Premier League next season have handed Sean Dyche's side lengthy away trips, against Bournemouth on November 28 and Newcastle on January 31.

Burnley's final away game of the season is a trip to Arsenal on May 5 before they end the campaign at Turf Moor on May 13 at home to Bournemouth.
