As usual, other competitions will run alongside the Premier League season, and the World Cup has forced a shake-up of the international match calendar. There will be no internationals in October, one month before the Qatar showcase, and the September break will be moved from the start to the end of the month.
The Champions League group stage gets underway on September 6/7, one week earlier than last season. Changes have been made, again, to accommodate the winter World Cup, with group matches to be played weekly rather than in two and three-week intervals to finish before the break.
February 14/15 marks the start of the knockout rounds, and the final is set for Istanbul on June 10, almost a month later than in 21-22. The Europa League and Europa Conference League schedules follow the Champions League on Thursdays, with the group stage starting on September 8 and ending on November 3.
Knockout rounds start on February 16, with the Europa League final taking place in Budapest on May 31 and the Europa Conference League final in Prague on June 7.
