Everton will kick off their 2026/27 Premier League campaign at home against Crystal Palace on Saturday, August 22, with David Moyes' side then travelling to Bournemouth before welcoming Manchester United to the Hill Dickinson Stadium in the opening weeks of the season.

The Toffees, who finished 13th in the Premier League last season, face all three promoted clubs within their opening 10 fixtures. Among those early opponents, former manager Frank Lampard returns to Merseyside when he brings Coventry City to the Hill Dickinson Stadium on November 7.

Merseyside derby dates confirmed

Everton will host Liverpool in the Merseyside derby on the weekend of November 28 — a chance to settle the score after suffering a stoppage-time defeat to their rivals last season. The return fixture at Anfield is pencilled in for January 30.

Boxing Day and the run-in

Supporters at the Hill Dickinson Stadium will be treated to a home fixture on Boxing Day, December 26, as Sunderland make the trip to Merseyside. Everton close out their Premier League season with a final-day away match against Ipswich Town at Portman Road on May 30.
