The Premier League is ready to begin anew following a tight six-week turnaround, with the 2020-21 season set to throw up more than the usual helping of top-flight questions in need of answers.
Can Liverpool retain their throne after winning a first title in 30 years? What lasting impact will the coronavirus pandemic have on England’s elite? Has Marcelo Bielsa got what it takes to keep Leeds United in the first tier following their return to the top?

A total of 380 Premier League matches will be played before the season is scheduled to conclude on May 23, 2021, and the late start means no winter break will take place this time around.
Hirings, firings, goals and VAR controversy will all play a part as “the world’s most entertaining league” returns for another edition, and fuboTV will be there every step of the way.
