The 2019/20 season opens up on Saturday, August 10. The campaign will end on Sunday, May 17, 2020. United started their season with a home game against Tottenham Hotspur in 2018/19, and ended it with a 4-1 victory at Craven Cottage against already relegated Fulham.

New (old) boys return - who got promoted from the Championship?

United will face three new sides in the Premier League next season, but every one of the trio, who replace relegated Fulham, Huddersfield Town and Cardiff City, are familiar faces. Sheffield United return to the top flight after a lengthy absence, while Tim Krul's Norwich City came up as champions. Aston Villa went one better than last year, this time winning at Wembley to seal a play-off win.

Longest away day?

As it was last season, the long drive to the Vitality Stadium, home of AFC Bournemouth, remains United's longest away journey this season. Just the near 700m up and down the country for United fans.

Shortest away trip?

Even with Sheffield Unite back on the scene, Burnley remains United's closest away day. It's a 232m round trip to Turf Moor.
