Chelsea
will open the defence of their Premier League title with a home game against
Burnley on August 12.
Antonio Conte's side then become Tottenham's first visitors to Wembley a
week later in a run of fixtures which sees the champions play four of last
season's top seven in their first seven games.
That run culminates with a home match against Manchester City on September
30, with the return fixture against them at the Etihad on March 3.
Indeed, that second game comes as part of a double header in Manchester,
with Chelsea visiting United first on February 24 after hosting their former
manager Jose Mourinho's side on November 4.
Chelsea welcome Premier League newcomers Brighton to west London on Boxing
Day and start 2018 at Arsenal on January 1, with their final fixture away to
Newcastle on May 13.
