Chelsea will begin the defence of their Premier League title with a home match against Swansea, after the full fixture list for the 2015-16 season was released on Wednesday.

Jose Mourinho’s side begin the campaign at Stamford Bridge on the weekend of Aug. 8 to Aug. 9 and will then have an early blockbuster battle as they travel to last season’s runners-up, Manchester City, the following weekend.

City open against West Brom while Arsenal host West Ham and Manchester United are at home to Tottenham.

Bournemouth play their first ever Premier League match at home to Aston Villa while the two other promoted sides, Norwich and Watford, are at home to Crystal Palace and away to Everton respectively.
