Georginio Wijnaldum has reacted to the Premier League fixture list for the upcoming 2020/2021 season from the team's pre-season training camp in Austria.
Liverpool will begin their title defence with a home game against newly-promoted Leeds United on September 12. The Reds will then play an away game against Chelsea on September 19 and on September 26 Jurgen Klopp’s side will host Arsenal.
Wijnaldum told
Liverpoolfc.com: "Tough fixtures but we just have to get good results.
"My first season when I came here it was also a tough start with three away games because the stadium was not ready – this is quite similar. We just have to see how it's going to look with supporters and all that.
"But in the Premier League all games are difficult, especially in the beginning because everyone is fresh. We just have to train good, trying to play the games as good as possible and prepare ourselves for the season.
"We don't know what we can expect. We know the fixtures and everything is tight and that you're going to play a lot games. But I think we will see how tough it is when we are in the situation, when you play game after game. Then we're going to see how tough it is.
"But we dealt with that situation before in some periods in the season. We know how to deal with it but it's going to be difficult. Most periods of the season we're going to play a lot of games. We just have to deal with the situation.
"You just want to do as good as possible and I already said it in my previous interviews that you never know what you deal with during the season. I just hope we can deal with every situation we will get in and make it as good as last season."
