Erik Ten Hag's First Game As Manchester United Manager Confirmed As EPL Schedule Published
Erik ten Hag will begin his Manchester United career with a home game against Brighton.
The Dutchman signed a three-year contract to become United's new permanent manager in April, but Ralf Rangnick remained in charge until the end of last season.
The Ten Hag era is now officially underway and his first match as United boss was confirmed on Thursday when the Premier League schedule was published.
Some of United's players may feel they have a score to settle with Brighton. United's penultimate game of last season was a 4-0 defeat at Brighton's Amex Stadium.
After beginning the 2022/23 campaign at home to Brighton, United also face Brentford, Liverpool, Southampton and Leicester in August.
United's two games against Liverpool have been penciled in for August 20 and March 4, while they are set to play Manchester City in October and January.
The Red Devils will play 16 matches before the season breaks for the first ever winter FIFA World Cup.
United's final game before the World Cup is against Fulham and they return to action on Boxing Day against Nottingham Forest.
The final day of the Premier League season will be Sunday, May 28 when United are due to face Fulham.
