The Seagulls' fifth successive season of top-flight football starts at Turf Moor on the opening weekend, before Graham Potter's side welcome Watford and Everton to the Amex Stadium in their first home games of the campaign before the end of August.

The first showdown with rivals Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park is pencilled in for September 25, with the return fixture scheduled for January 15 after the Premier League's winter break.
