The release of the 2026-27 Premier League fixtures has already given Tottenham Hotspur supporters plenty to discuss, with the final five matches of the campaign catching the eye.
While it all went downhill last term, Tottenham did enjoy a somewhat respectable start to the Premier League season in the 2025-26 campaign.
Under Thomas Frank‘s guidance, Spurs managed three wins from their first four league outings, securing victories over Burnley, Manchester City and West Ham United, although they did suffer a defeat to AFC Bournemouth on matchday three.
A similar start this term would no doubt be a huge positive given how last season unfolded, with Spurs struggling for much of the second half of the campaign before Roberto De Zerbi arrived and steadied the ship, ultimately keeping the club in the Premier League.
Tottenham now know what the 2026-27 Premier League schedule looks like after it was released on June 19.
Many fans will no doubt be eager to see how their side fares, especially after De Zerbi’s team recorded three wins and a draw from their final five games of the 2025-26 campaign. One would expect Spurs to carry similar momentum into the new season.

Tottenham face daunting fixtures at end of 2026-27 season
The final five games of the new campaign have now caught the attention of many Tottenham supporters, with the run-in looking particularly difficult on paper.
Spurs are set to come up against Arsenal, Chelsea, Coventry City, Manchester United and Aston Villa before bringing the season to a close.
- 01/05/2027 15:00:00 Arsenal v Tottenham Hotspur
- 08/05/2027 15:00:00 Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea
- 15/05/2027 15:00:00 Coventry City v Tottenham Hotspur
- 23/05/2027 15:00:00 Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester United
- 30/05/2027 16:00:00 Aston Villa v Tottenham Hotspur
Back-to-back London derbies are unlikely to make life easy, especially when followed by fixtures against a Manchester United side that finished third last season and an Aston Villa team that ended the campaign in fourth.
A game against newly promoted Derby County in the mix could also be tough, especially if they are in a relegation fight.
Fans who have caught wind of the schedule have since shared their reaction, with many expressing concerns over the fixture list.
One supporter wrote: “Lets hope we arent in another relegation scrap…” Another commented: “Makes me feel we have a favourable start”
A third added: “They trying to send us down again??? Please tell me this is wrong” One more fan said: “Hopefully out of a relegation battle by then! 🙃”
Meanwhile, others were rather optimistic, with one fan saying: “Lifting the league at emirates or Stamford bridge, premier league doing us good”
Another commented: “Would’ve loved the final game to be at home but lifting the pl title at the villa park isn’t bad tbh”
That did not prevent concerns over another relegation battle, with one supporter stating: “Ouch. We better not be in another relegation scrap then 👀”
While another added: “‘Win the league Away to Arsenal and get a guard of honour at Home to Chelsea🤪🤩”
Spurs must make favourable fixture runs count
Of course, if there is a difficult run of fixtures towards the end of the season, that also means there will be periods where Tottenham have a more favourable schedule.
At those points, Spurs simply have to make it count, pick up points and stay clear of trouble. However, regardless of their league position, the competitiveness of the division means they could just as easily be battling for European qualification, making victories in these fixtures equally important.
| Opponent | Venue | 2025-26 Result | Points Won | 2025-26 League Position |
| Arsenal | Away | Lost 1-4 | 0 | 1st |
| Chelsea | Home | Lost 0-1 | 0 | 10th |
| Manchester United | Home | Drew 2-2 | 1 | 3rd |
| Aston Villa | Away | Won 2-1 | 3 | 4th |
| Total | 4 |
Tottenham need to prepare themselves for a significant season and aim as high as possible. With a chance of challenging for the top four, and perhaps even more, there is plenty for supporters to be excited about.
Pep Guardiola is no longer in the division and Manchester City’s dominance could now be coming to an end. With no European competition and fewer matches to contend with, Spurs have a real opportunity to take advantage.
