Everton will kick off the 2012-13 Premier League season at home to Manchester United.
Sir Alex Ferguson's side travel to Goodison Park for the mouthwatering clash on Saturday, August 18 as the Blues aim to get off to a flying start in David Moyes' tenth full season.
A trip to Aston Villa follows a week later before another road trip to West Bromwich Albion at the start of September, when newly promoted Southampton will make the trip to Merseyside.
The first Merseyside derby of the season takes place at Goodison Park on October 27, with the corresponding fixture at Anfield arriving towards the tail end of the season, on May 4.
Christmas throws up a Boxing Day visit from Wigan Athletic followed by European champions Chelsea just three days later before starting 2013 with a trip to Newcastle United.
Trips to Old Trafford and the Emirates Stadium lie in wait in February and March respectively while Everton will entertain defending champions Manchester City on March 16.
A final day meeting away to Chelsea is how Moyes' side will round off their 2012-13 campaign.
