The opening weekend has already been confirmed and Saints will kick-off at Newcastle United on Saturday, August 17 (3pm).

The standard kick-off time for Premier League matches remains 3pm for Saturday fixtures and 7:45pm for midweek rounds.

Fixtures selected for TV broadcast can be moved to Friday nights, Saturday evenings, Sunday afternoons and Monday nights.
