Everton's Germany fixtures talk starts with the 2026/27 Premier League fixture list, and David Moyes has a first 10-match run that could return 14 to 18 points. The opening sequence gives Everton a clear early test without Liverpool or Manchester City in sight, but the line between a useful start and a flat one is thin.
Crystal Palace visit first, then Everton go to Bournemouth. Manchester United are next at home, before a trip to Tottenham and a visit from Ipswich Town at Hill Dickinson. That is five matches into the season, and three of Everton's first five fixtures are at home.
Moyes and Hill Dickinson
The home pattern matters because it gives Moyes a base to set the tone early. Everton then work through Hull City, Chelsea, Arsenal and Newcastle United to complete their first nine fixtures, with Coventry City due at Hill Dickinson on November 7.
There is a clear split in the schedule. Everton avoid Liverpool and Manchester City across the opening 10 matches, yet the toughest spell arrives after the September international break. Chelsea come to Hill Dickinson after the trip to Hull City, then Everton go to Arsenal and Newcastle United in successive weeks.
Arsenal and Newcastle United
That run is where the forecast gets tested. A target of 14 to 18 points from 10 matches leaves little room for wasted home games, especially with Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Newcastle United all inside the opening stretch.
For supporters, the practical read is simple: the first 10 fixtures are not brutal, but they are not soft either. Everton have enough home games to build momentum, and enough difficult away trips to make the opening table position a fair guide to how quickly Moyes can settle the side.
The opening answer to the season is already on the page. Everton now have to turn that schedule into points, and the difference between 14 and 18 will likely come down to how many of the home fixtures they convert before the autumn pressure builds.
