Premier League fixtures: Leicester seek revenge on Arsenal and the key games to look for
Arsenal were the only team win at Leicester City last season and Claudio Ranieri's men will seek revenge in this season's opener.
Leicester City will hope to make amends for a rare blot on their title-winning campaign when they host Arsenal in their first home match of the 2016-17 Premier League campaign.
Claudio Ranieri's side stunned the world as they romped to the title by 10 points in May, and their home form played a crucial role in their success.
Twelve wins and six draws came their way as they turned the King Power Stadium into a fortress, the only team to take maximum points there being Arsenal - the Gunners in scintillating form in September as an Alexis Sanchez hat-trick inspired a 5-2 win.
Leicester will get an immediate opportunity for revenge at the start of the new campaign with Arsene Wenger's side visiting on the second weekend of the season.
While Leicester enjoy plenty of home comforts, West Ham face the challenge having to settle into new surroundings after leaving Upton Park for the Olympic Stadium.
And Slaven Bilic's side – who signed Sofiane Feghouli on Tuesday – will be keen to start with three points when AFC Bournemouth travel to their new home on August 20.
Before West Ham take to the Olympic Park turf they provide the opposition for Antonio Conte's first game in charge at Chelsea.
