Arne Slot's competitive Liverpool career will begin with Jurgen Klopp's least favourite kick-off time, but the new Reds boss is likely to be fairly happy with the cards he's been dealt from the off.
The Reds will go to newly-promoted Ipswich Town to begin their 2024/25 season with a 12.30pm kick-off at Portman Road, with Slot's first Anfield Premier League game coming a week later with the visit of Brentford.
A trip to face Manchester United at Old Trafford, and Slot's fellow countryman Erik ten Hag, then looms large in just the third week of the season, but Slot is sure to be pretty happy with Liverpool's schedule around the first two international breaks.
Things do then get tougher for Slot and Liverpool with matches against Chelsea and Arsenal in October, while the Reds face a huge week as they take on Manchester City at home before trips to Newcastle and Everton at the start of December.
Manchester United come to Anfield in the New Year, with City scheduled to visit in late February and the Anfield Merseyside derby played on the first weekend of April.
