Under-21s fixtures released

The Reds will begin the campaign with an away game at Arsenal on 6 August before a first home encounter, with Crystal Palace, on the following Friday.

There is a sizeable gap in the calendar due to the World Cup, with a Manchester derby on 5 November pencilled in as provisionally the final outing of 2022. The opening game of the New Year is not until 6 January, with a trip to west London to face Fulham.

Please note, however, that all fixtures are subject to change.
