Premier League fixtures announced

The fixtures for the Premier League 2012-13 season have been announced, with reigning champions Manchester City due to take on newly-promoted side Southampton on the opening day of the season.

Roberto Mancini's side will begin the defence of their trophy on home turf against the Saints, while last season's runner-ups Manchester United face a tough encounter away to Everton on the first day of the new campaign on August 18.

New West Bromwich Albion coach Steve Clarke will have his first test as manager against his former club Liverpool with Brendan Rodgers kicking off his new career with the Reds away from home.

Chelsea travel to the DW Stadium to take on Wigan Athletic, Arsenal begin their campaign at the Emirates against Sunderland while Tottenham Hotspur, who are currently in the hunt for a new manager, begin their season with a mouth-watering tie against Newcastle United at the Sports Direct Arena.

Meanwhile, West Ham United and Reading begin their new campaign in the top flight at home to Stoke City and Aston Villa respectively.

Please note, all fixtures are subject to change.
