Chelsea will have to wait until Monday, September 14 for their opening game of the season, although they have been handed a relatively kind first fixture away to Brighton & Hove Albion.
Their first home game will see them welcome champions Liverpool to Stamford Bridge, though, and they look set for a difficult end to the campaign too.
May sees them face local rivals Fulham in a West London derby before taking on Manchester City, Arsenal and Leicester City in succession and ending the season away to Aston Villa.
