Premier League inaugural day fixtures; Iwobi, Onyeka, Aribo, Aina, Olise, Tosin, Solanke unveil adversariesThe Premier League has unveiled the timetable and dates for all 380 matches scheduled for the 2023/2024 season on its official website. Alex Iwobi and Calvin Bassey’s Fulham will commence the season on August 16th against Manchester United at Old Trafford. The Nigerian duo both scored in the same game last season, adding intrigue to the possibility of them repeating their success. Brentford will kick off their campaign against Crystal Palace at the Gtech Community Stadium, a match that may highlight the talents of Super Eagles midfielder Frank Onyeka and Super Eagles-eligible forward Michael Olise, provided they remain with the club during the ongoing transfer window.
Taiwo Awoniyi and Ola Aina’s Nottingham Forest will host Dominic Solanke’s AFC Bournemouth at the City Ground on the inaugural weekend of the season. Given the ongoing transfer rumors surrounding Awoniyi and Solanke, there is a likelihood that one or both players may not participate in this fixture. Joe Aribo and Samuel Edozie’s Southampton, making a return to the Premier League, are scheduled to take on Newcastle at St. James’ Park on the first matchday. Tosin Adarabioyo could potentially make his debut for Chelsea against Manchester City at Stamford Bridge in a clash that signifies the initial encounter of the season between the traditional big six clubs. Carney Chukwuemeka, Noni Madueke, and Lesley Ugochukwu might also be included in the lineup against new Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca in the same match. Premier League fixtures.
