Premier League clubs in European competitions are set for a relentless 2022-23 season as the games come thick and fast.
With an earlier than usual start and a later finish, the unprecedented campaign will include the Qatar World Cup between November 21 and December 18, after which the clubs will simply pick things up and go again, with the fourth round of the League Cup scheduled a week before Christmas and then the Premier League starting again on Boxing Day.
The Champions League is also not immune from change here either, with the group stages crammed in between early September and early November, instead of the usual September to December run.
