Liverpool to play away in Premier League before every Champions League group game

Liverpool will play away from home in the Premier League before every Champions League group game this season.

The fixture list, released on Thursday morning, provisionally shows that Liverpool will face rivals Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea and Arsenal before European matches.

It starts in September when Liverpool travel to Tottenham's new stadium ahead of the opening game of the Champions League group stages, which both teams automatically qualified for.

Prior to matchday two in the Champions League set for either Oct. 2 or Oct. 3, Liverpool will play Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Liverpool visit Huddersfield Town at the John Smith's Stadium on the weekend before the third round of fixtures in Europe's premier club competition, scheduled for Oct. 23 or Oct. 24.

Arsenal, who will play in the Europa League this season, then host Jurgen Klopp's side ahead of matchday four.

Jurgen Klopp's side travel to Watford and Bournemouth respectively before the remaining two games of the group stages.

Liverpool will discover their Champions League opponents on Aug. 30 when the draw for the group stages is made in Monaco.
