Crystal Palace: Premier League 2021/22 fixtures and schedule | Football News

Crystal Palace begin a new era with a trip to Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea on the opening day of the new Premier League season.

Palace are continuing their search for Roy Hodgson’s successor and should have a new manager in place by the time they travel across the capital to take on Champions League holders Chelsea on August 14.

The Eagles will remain in London for their opening four fixtures, with the visit to West Ham (August 28) sandwiched in between home encounters with Brentford (August 21) and Tottenham (September 11).

The first derby against Brighton takes place at Selhurst Park on September 25 with a trip to the Amex Stadium on January 15.

Palace make the short trip to face Spurs on Boxing Day before kicking off 2022 with a home fixture against West Ham on New Year’s Day.

The South London club will hope to have their top-flight status secured by the time they host Manchester United on the final day of the campaign on May 22.
