City kick off away to Spurs

Manchester City kick off the new Premier League season with a tasty-looking trip to Tottenham on August 14. The two sides fought tooth and nail for the fourth Champions League spot last season and the game is a highlight of the opening day. City then face Liverpool at home on August 21 before a clash with Sunderland away on August 28. The Manchester derbies are on November 10 (home) and February 12 (away) with a trip to Newcastle wedged in between on Boxing Day. Roberto Mancini's men end the season at Bolton on May 22.
