What is Arsenal’s first match of the 2024/25 season?

Arsenal open their Premier League campaign at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday 17 August 2024, hosting Wolverhampton Wanderers. This marks the second consecutive season where Arsenal have begun at home, following their 2023/24 opening fixture against Nottingham Forest.

Arsenal vs Wolverhampton Wanderers – opening day details

• Date: Saturday 17 August 2024
• Venue: Emirates Stadium
• Opponent: Wolverhampton Wanderers (Wolves)
• Kick-off: To be confirmed pending TV scheduling

Arsenal’s second league match takes them to Villa Park on Saturday 24 August 2024, facing Aston Villa away. The opening month concludes with Brighton & Hove Albion visiting the Emirates on 31 August 2024, as confirmed by Sky Sports and Goal (established football media outlet).

What are Arsenal’s next five fixtures in 2024/25?

After the opening three matches against Wolves, Aston Villa, and Brighton, Arsenal face a significant step up in difficulty. The north London derby arrives in mid-September, followed immediately by a trip to the Etihad Stadium to face Manchester City.

The confirmed sequence for Arsenal’s opening five Premier League matches runs as follows, according to Sky Sports and Goal:

• Matchday 1: Wolves (H) – 17 August 2024
• Matchday 2: Aston Villa (A) – 24 August 2024
• Matchday 3: Brighton (H) – 31 August 2024
• Matchday 4: Tottenham Hotspur (A) – 14 September 2024
• Matchday 5: Manchester City (A) – 21 September 2024

That four-week spell packs in Arsenal’s two biggest away challenges of the early season. Visiting Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and the Etihad within a month tests both the squad’s depth and their mental resilience against direct rivals.

What are Arsenal’s next ten fixtures in 2024/25?

Extending beyond the early-season gauntlet, Arsenal’s first ten Premier League matches reveal a month-by-month progression of difficulty. After the City and Spurs away days, Leicester City visit the Emirates on 28 September, providing some respite before October brings its own challenges.

Arsenal’s full autumn schedule, as documented by Sky Sports:

• September: Tottenham (A), Manchester City (A), Leicester City (H)
• October: Southampton (H), Bournemouth (A), Liverpool (H)
• November: Newcastle (A), Chelsea (A), Nottingham Forest (H), West Ham (A)

October’s home fixture against Liverpool on 26 October represents one of the season’s marquee early-date matches, while the November sequence of consecutive away games at Newcastle and Chelsea—bracketing a home match—will test Arsenal’s away form significantly.

The run through December and January

The winter period brings its own pressures. December 2024 alone contains six Premier League fixtures for Arsenal, including the traditional Boxing Day match—home against newly promoted Ipswich Town on 26 December—followed by a short trip to face Brentford on 29 December.

The return north London derby arrives on 14 January 2025 at the Emirates Stadium, providing an immediate focus point after the New Year. January also features an FA Cup third round, adding another competition to an already congested calendar.

The pattern across autumn and winter shows Arsenal facing their toughest travel demands in September and November—back-to-back away days against top-six rivals in consecutive months. Squad rotation in cup competitions may determine whether Arteta’s side arrives at February’s home City fixture with sufficient freshness.
