Crystal Palace fixtures: Premier League 2017/18

Crystal Palace begin life after Sam Allardyce in the Premier League with a home game against newly-promoted Huddersfield on August 12.

Palace have a tough opening run of fixtures and as well as a trip to Liverpool in their first away game, they play Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea in consecutive games between September 23 and October 14.

The matches directly before Christmas will be crucial, with the Selhurst Park team taking on Stoke, Brighton, West Brom, Bournemouth, Watford, Leicester and Swansea over a four-week period.

The busy festive spell sees them host Arsenal in a Boxing Day London derby, with City also visiting Palace four days later before a January 1 trip to Southampton.

There's a return derby against Brighton to look forward to at home on April 28 and that comes as part of another sequence against teams which finished further down the table in 2016/17 - ending at home to West Brom on May 13.
