The Premier League fixture for the 2022/2023 season has been leaked and Arsenal faces a tricky start to the season if it is true.
The Gunners ended the last campaign in the 5th spot on the league table, thanks to their inconsistent form towards the end of the term.
They will want to start the next one seriously and hopefully earn as many points as possible from the first few weeks of the season.
The Sun has revealed a leaked fixture list, and it shows that Arsenal’s first league game of the season would be an away match at Brighton on the 6th of August.
They will then host Leicester City on the 13th of the same month before travelling to Wolves (20th August) and Welcoming Newcastle United (27th August), in their first four games of the season.
Manchester City, Everton, West Ham, and Nottingham Forest would be their next four opponents.
Just Arsenal Opinion
There is no easy way for any club to start a league season because all the opponents will resume the campaign well prepared.
Arsenal needs to work to improve their squad in this transfer window because if we don’t make significant changes, it would be hard to secure victories from the start of the next term.
Seems quite an easy first 4 games if true
We get this same story every year and it’s always wrong so if this happens I’ll be extremely surprised.
Declan I have a feeling when real fixtures are leaked then they redo the schedule so you’d never know if the leak was actually fake or real.
According to the Premier League website,the fixtures for the 22/23 season will be announced on Thursday the 16th of June.
That will not be the fixtures for starters.
And why would they be classed as TRICKY ?
City is the only one that may trouble us.
It’s the readers who have been tricked by the title of this article. I wouldn’t have clicked into this to read this crap.
But you DID read the title, and you DID read the article, and you even left a crap comment
Exactly
I told you,guys.just yesterday.
If true, and stranger things have happened and been true, then I am quite relieved it is not a harder start The first four games are all winnable and I could easily see us getting eighteen points from those eight games.
FAR EASIER START THAN LAST SEASON SURELY!
So far from being “tricky” as MARTIN WRITES BUT ALMOST CERTAINLY DOES NOT ALSO BELIEVE.
Many articles from those who run JA are clearly Devils Advocate articles, because they often write almost exactly contrary ones later or earlier, as convenient to JA.
REALITY, as we regulars have long known.
the fact that anyone would call this start “tricky” speaks to the general lack of faith in both this manager and his ability to get business done early in the window…the fact that we will face a who’s who of the middling classes puts an exorbitant amount of pressure on our “under the gun” manager who can’t afford losing to the likes of Brighton, Wolves and the potentially up-and-coming Newcastle, as they could be used as incredibly problematic measuring stick affairs, should we stumble out of the gates once again
In my view the only tricky fixture is against City but the likes of Leicester last season we beat them home and away
I would rathe have an easier last 10 matches than 1st few. Arsenal always starts slow regardless and pick form in the middle and then again slows down at the end. Last season we had the toughest fixture where as Spurs had the easiest .
Same happened with City as Liverpool had difficult fixtures.
To me team who had easier fixture last 10 games have an advantage on their rivals even if they are 5 to 8 points behind them. Team normally run out of gas towards the end of the campaign due to factors like injuries , deep European run etc.
How is this a tricky start???
I don’t think there are any easy games in the PL. Since we normally start slow and since we normally don’t sign our new players in time to bed in during pre-season I rather play Liverpool and City in the first 2 games and Brighton and Wolves in the last 2 games.
This shows that arsenal are not making any progress,all this matches that you mentioned are winnable matches during Wenger era.
When we sign well nothing will be tricky
If this is true, it doesn’t seem too bad. Just hope we get new signings in time for that first fixture.
yes it doesn’t seem too bad, lets hope we get new signings in time. Gunners we can do it this coming season…
Bissouma on the radar of Spurs and they have officially tabled a bid, someone wake me up please, hasn’t he been on our radar in the past two or three seasons? with this club nothing shocks me any More, absolutely nothing
dont think a “leaked” fixture list has ever been right…
