Liverpool will kick-off the 2008-09 Barclays Premier League campaign with an away trip to Roy Keane's Sunderland.
The game at the Stadium of Light will take place on August 16 when the Reds will be looking for a similar performance to the one which gave them a 2-0 victory in the corresponding fixture last season.
Middlesbrough are the first visitors to Anfield the following weekend with Manchester United arriving on Merseyside in mid-September.
The first derby of the season takes place at Goodison Park on September 27 with the Anfield fixture on January 17.
Our Boxing Day clash next season will be a home game with Bolton while we will also end the campaign at home when Juande Ramos' Tottenham will be the opponents.
Please note that all of these fixtures are subject to change for television purposes and/or police requests. It is envisaged that the first set of television fixtures will be confirmed on Thursday, 3rd July.

Arsenal, Chelsea and Man United all start at home, while we're away.
Again.
Am I being paranoid or does this happen every single year?
I know we've all got to play 38 games so it shouldn't make a huge difference but I'd be interested to see how they work these things out.

I imagine the middlesborough game will be moved due to CL qualification, therefore Manure will be our first home game.
Champion's League qualifiers would be midweek, don't see why it should affect weekend games

It was definitely the same last season and yeah, it does seem to happen every year.
Like you say it shouldn't matter too much but you can't overplay the importance of a good start. If we limp to an away draw while the other three beat their cannon-fodder at home, we're playing catch-up from day one.
Ah well, we'll win at Sunderland anyway.
