Tottenham Hotspur kick off their 2026-27 Premier League fixtures with a trip west across London to Brentford on 22nd August — the late 5:30pm Saturday slot, a full day after Arsenal open proceedings. After last season’s near-catastrophic relegation battle, Roberto De Zerbi’s rebuilt side cannot afford a slow start.
Tottenham Premier League Fixtures 2026-27: A Punishing Opening Run
Spurs don’t ease in gently. Newcastle United visit N17 on 29th August, Aston Villa arrive on 19th September, and a trip to Manchester United follows on 10th October — all within the opening six fixtures. That’s the kind of schedule that separates the pretenders from the contenders, and De Zerbi will know it. The Italian took charge on 31st March this season, immediately arresting a jaw-dropping 16-game, five-month winless streak that had briefly dragged Spurs into the relegation zone. He coaxed 11 points from his first seven matches in charge, with a crucial 1-0 final-day win over Everton sending West Ham down in their place. From the ashes of the worst Premier League season in the club’s history, something is stirring.
Summer Rebuild and a Brutal Finale Await Spurs
The club has moved decisively in the transfer market this summer. Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi have both arrived on free transfers following contract expiries at Liverpool and Bournemouth respectively. More significantly, Spurs announced the £52 million signing of Netherlands centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke from Brighton on Thursday — a clear statement of intent from a club desperate to avoid the relegation trapdoor again.
As for the calendar, there’s a notable quirk: Spurs host the first north London derby of the season on 5th December, with the return at the Emirates pencilled in for 1st May. That Emirates trip is the launchpad for a genuinely daunting run-in. Their final five matches read: Arsenal, Chelsea, Coventry City, Manchester United, and Aston Villa. According to BBC Sport, Spurs last dropped into the second tier back in 1976-77, and everything in De Zerbi’s tenure so far suggests he’ll be doing everything to keep that footnote exactly where it belongs — firmly in the past.
