There will also be no Christmas Eve game this season, unlike in 2023, when Wolves played Chelsea.
When will the Premier League season end?
The 2024-25 season will finish on Sunday, May 25, 2025.
All 20 teams will be in action that day and all games will kick-off at the same time.
There will be mid-season break – this has been done to allow a mid-August start date for the League instead
Will there be a mid-season break?
No, the Premier League have announced that there will be no mid-season break that they have removed it from the calendar.
This has been done to allow a mid-August start date for the League instead.
The Premier League have said ‘This longer summer break allows all Premier League clubs to be better able to ensure that players get a consecutive three-week break in the summer. This takes into account expert advice from medical and technical departments, which values a longer period of complete rest in the summer rather than a short break in the winter.’
So far according to FIFA men’s international match calendar, there will be four international breaks sprawled out across the duration of the 2024-24 Premier League season
