Looks like Wenger's Army will have to kick off their campaign with a tough one away to Everton, who managed to pull off an admirable last gasp claim for 5th place. Its too early to predict or even preview the game, however a manager of David Moyes' credentials and for the work that he has put into Everton FC, does propose a tough challenge for the Gunner's in their opening bout. To close the first month we travel to Old Trafford to face United in an early clash of the Titans.

Another exciting period in this season will be the games in the last week of January, stretching to the opening week of February. In this time span we play Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea back to back, which will most probably be the toughest part of our EPL campaign.
Our Premier League season ends with games against Man city, Blackburn and Fulham which may invoke mixed reactions in some, but what I believe is a much more comfortable end as compared to last season where we played Chelsea, United and Stoke City.
The general trend seems to be a comfortable one, barring the 3 back to back big four clashes, with March and April 2010 perhaps being our most comfortable months (Not taking injuries into consideration).

Lets Take a look at the new fixtures (09/10) with their corresponding scores last season (08/09):
