When is the break in the Premier League this term? Top-flight schedule revealed

talksport.com, 9 August 2023, 10:13

The 2023/24 Premier League officially gets underway this weekend and anticipation for the new season has never been higher.

Last campaign was the most gruelling ever, with hundreds of domestic matches squeezed in around the 2022 World Cup.

The Premier League took a month-long break between mid-November and Boxing Day to factor in the Qatar tournament.

But despite there being no mid-season tournament to consider this year, new rules on added time means games will be longer than ever.

So with that in mind, when do players get a break to cope with the relentless schedule? talkSPORT.com take a look.

When is the winter break this season?

The Premier League will have a mid-season break after the festive period from January 14 to January 30, 2024.

Clubs will play their final top-flight games on Saturday, January 13 before enjoying two weekends off from league action.

There is a chance some teams may return to the pitch sooner to play FA Cup matches but that is dependent on third round results.

The Premier League will then return thick and fast with midweek games from Tuesday, January 30 and Wednesday, January 31 before another round of fixtures starts on Saturday, February 2.

When does the 2023/24 Premier League season start?

The 2023/24 Premier League season will begin on Friday, August 11.
