Southampton begin their 2024/25 Premier League season at Newcastle United, where they have not won since 2015, on August 17; Manchester United visit St Mary's on September 14; Saints host West Ham on Boxing Day, and end season with Arsenal visiting on final day on May 25

Southampton begin their Premier League return with a trip to the North East to face bogey side Newcastle.
Russell Martin's Saints have won only one of the last 13 meetings between the two sides and visit Tyneside looking for their first win at St James' Park since January 2015, when an Eljero Elia double earned a 2-1 victory.
That long journey takes up most of the miles of their first month back in the top flight, with Nottingham Forest the first team to visit St Mary's next season on August 24 and a trip to west London to face Brentford on August 31.
September starts with a bang as Man Utd arrive on the south coast on September 14. The Christmas period sees Southampton visiting London twice, first to visit Fulham on December 21 before returning to play Crystal Palace on December 29, either side of West Ham visiting St Mary's on Boxing Day.
Saints host Man City on May 10 and are due to play their part in Goodison Park's last-ever fixture when they visit Everton on May 18, before an unforgiving run-in ends with Arsenal arriving at St Mary's for the final day of the season on May 25.
All fixtures subject to change.
