West Ham open their campaign at home to Newcastle United on the first Saturday of the new season, but things get a lot tougher for them immediately after.
The Hammers' next six matches all come against teams that finished in the top half of the table last term, a run which ends with back-to-back games against Manchester City and Liverpool.
There is another difficult run in March and April with Manchester United, Arsenal and Wolverhampton Wanderers in succession before ending the campaign at home to Southampton.
