Jose Mourinho and Pep Guardiola will not have to wait long to renew their rivalry with the first Manchester derby of next season to take place at Old Trafford on September 10.
Mourinho, who replaced Louis van Gaal at United this summer, clashed regularly with Manuel Pellegrini's successor Guardiola while in Spain and they will go head-to-head immediately after the first international break of the season, with the return game at the Etihad on February 25, 2017.
Champions Leicester begin their defence at promoted Hull City on August 13, while Mourinho takes his team to Bournemouth and Guardiola's City host Sunderland.
Ronald Koeman will also take charge of his new club for the first time when Everton take on Tottenham at Goodison Park and there is also a high-profile clash between Arsenal and Liverpool at the Emirates.
Meanwhile, new Chelsea boss Antonio Conte faces a fiery opening game with the visit of West Ham, who play their first league game at the Olympic Stadium a week later against Bournemouth.
Burnley's return to the Premier League sees them host Swansea, while Middlesbrough are at home to Stoke in their first game since winning promotion from the Championship.
Mourinho's first reunion with Chelsea will be at Stamford Bridge on October 22, while former Southampton boss Koeman must wait until November 26 before his return to the south coast.
Manchester United, who played the last game at Upton Park last season, will be the last visitors to White Hart Lane as Tottenham say goodbye to their old ground on May 13.
