The excitement surrounding the English Premier League 2025/26 season has hit a high with the official season fixtures released. The new season, which will commence on Saturday, August 16, 2025, is expected to keep fans on their toes until the final matches on Sunday, May 24, 2026. Considering the welfare of players, the EPL body has made a series of strategic adjustments to the holiday schedule. A 60-hour rest break between rounds will be mandatory for the first time in history. This first-of-its-kind move also relieves frequent concerns about the holiday jumble so players can perform to their full potential across the season.

The move is expected to be embraced both by players and fans alike, with everyone feeling fully in the spirit of the holiday. The EPL 2025/26 schedule is thoughtfully designed across 33 weekends and five-midweek rounds to provide a well-balanced and evenly distributed schedule. Starting on August 16, the calendar includes a large recovery period of 83 days for players from the end of the 2024/25 season. In addition, with the final day of the season set for May 24, 2026, the league has the advantage of wrapping up well before the FIFA 2026 World Cup call-up window. This gives players enough time to prepare for the biggest event in world football, the World Cup. Such carefully considered actions demonstrate the Premier League’s commitment to preserving competitive football and protecting player welfare. We are fans, and we cannot wait for another season of awesome football!
