Which fixture concluded the 2026–27 Premier League opening round on Monday?
Answer
Fulham vs Chelsea
Fulham versus Chelsea concluded the 2026–27 Premier League opening round on Monday.
The match was scheduled for Monday 24 August 2026 at 20:00 BST. Fulham were the home side, so the fixture was played at Craven Cottage, on the banks of the River Thames in west London.
Chelsea’s nearby visit made the match a west London meeting. Both clubs are based in London, but they are separate Premier League teams with different home grounds and histories. Fulham’s ground is Craven Cottage, while Chelsea play at Stamford Bridge.
The fixture was the tenth and final match of the opening round. Arsenal versus Coventry City began the season on Friday, and the other eight matches were distributed across Saturday and Sunday.
