Champions Leicester City will begin the defence of their Premier League crown away at newly promoted Hull City on August 13.

Claudio Ranieri's men stunned the world last season as they transformed themselves from relegation candidates to title winners, Leicester finishing the campaign with a 10-point cushion.

Defending that title is a whole new experience for The Foxes and they will travel to the Hull as a potentially huge scalp for Steve Bruce's Tigers.

Leicester's first home game of the season sees the visit of Arsenal – who beat them 5-2 at the King Power Stadium last season – with trips to Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham coming before November.

Return fixtures against United, Liverpool and Arsenal all fall within the space of five weeks from early February, while Leicester face a tricky trip to Manchester City on the penultimate weekend of the season.
