Everton will play Arsenal at Emirates on the final day of next season - but Sean Dyche is gifted a kind start with only ONE top-six club in first eight matches

Sean Dyche has avoided a tricky start to next season's Premier League campaign, with Everton set to face only one top-six club during their first eight matches.

The Toffees, who secured Premier League survival on the final day of last season, will start the new term against Fulham at Goodison Park before facing Aston Villa, Wolves, Sheffield United, Arsenal, Brentford and Luton in their first two months of the campaign.

However, Everton fans will hope to avoid relegation before the Premier League's final weekend next season, as their side will close out the campaign against Gunners at the Emirates.
