West Ham will kick off their 2019/20 Premier League season with a gruelling opening fixture against holders Manchester City, as they look to establish themselves as a top-half team.
In what will be Manuel Pellegrini's second season in charge of the Hammers, they then only encounter Manchester United from the 'top six' within their next 11 matches, which takes place at the London Stadium on 21 September.
Beginning with a home clash against London rivals Tottenham on 23 November, West Ham thereafter face four of the 'top six' - also Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool - within their next six matches; a run which also includes a tricky trip to face Wolves.
