Newcastle: Premier League 2021/22 fixtures and schedule

Newcastle United will welcome West Ham to St James' Park in their opening fixture of the 2021/22 Premier League campaign on August 15, live on Sky Sports.

Steve Bruce's side have avoided any of the top six in the opening month of the season, with a trip to Aston Villa (August 21) before facing Southampton at home (August 28).

The Christmas period is the most worrying for Newcastle fans though, with December trips to Leicester (11) and Liverpool (15) before facing champions Manchester City (18) and Manchester United on Boxing Day.
