Spurs will face Manchester City and Arsenal in the opening month of the 2019/20 Premier League season, but do for the first time since 2010 have a home match first up with newly promoted Aston Villa set to visit north London on August 10.

Tottenham Hotspur will take on Dean Smith's team before a week later they travel to the champions.

Newcastle United make the trip to N17 on the penultimate weekend of August before the opening month of the campaign concludes with a tantalising north London derby at the Emirates.

Fans will be happy with Tottenham's schedule over Christmas with the festive period beginning with a home clash against Chelsea on December 21 before another match in London on Boxing Day when Brighton & Hove Albion visit the capital.
