Liverpool FC 2017-18 Premier League fixtures see Reds handed nice start and finish

Posted by

Liverpool FC’s latest bid to win their first Premier League title will begin with a trip to Watford, it was revealed this morning.

The Premier League published a provisional fixture list at 9am, subject changes made for television coverage.

Liverpool beat Watford twice last season, winning 6-1 and 1-0.

After their opening-day engagement with Watford, Liverpool end August with back-to-back home games against Londoners Crystal Palace and Arsenal.

Decemebr looks like a crucial month for Jurgen Klopp’s men, as it includes seven matches, including a Merseyside Derby with Everton at Anfield and a trip to the Emirates Stadium.

The end-of-the-season run-in appears very favourable, with an away game at Chelsea the only exception.
