Burnley's 2026-27 season

Every club in the division is played twice, home and away, so the schedule below is the whole league seen from one side of it.

The season opens at home against West Ham United on Aug 16, and finishes away at Birmingham City on May 1. The heaviest stretch is 3 matches in seven days, from Sep 2 to Sep 8.

Kick-off times are shown in your own timezone rather than local time in England — detected automatically, and overridable in the “Times in” control above. Matches whose time the broadcasters have not yet fixed show a date and a ? instead; those are settled about five or six weeks ahead, and a match can move day as well as time when it happens. To see how Burnley's run compares with the rest of the division, the full grid puts all 24 clubs side by side.

Frequently asked questions

When do Burnley play next?

Why do some Burnley matches have no kick-off time?

The Championship publishes its schedule a season ahead but confirms kick-off times only about five or six weeks in advance, after the broadcasters pick their matches — which can also move a match between Saturday, Sunday and Monday. 22 of Burnley's 46 matches are still waiting on that, and are shown with a date but no time.

2 in a row, from Sep 2 to Sep 5. The longest away run is 2, from Aug 23 to Aug 29.
