RB Leipzig's Bundesliga season will begin on a Sunday! After announcing the schedule for the new Bundesliga season a few weeks ago, the Deutsche Fußball Liga (DFL) announced the times and dates for Matchdays 1 to 8 on Friday.
Our season opener will take place on Sunday, 20th September (kickoff: 15:30 CEST), as FSV Mainz 05 visit the Red Bull Arena, two days after the first match of the season on 18th September 2020. Due to the delayed start to the new season, a knock-on effect of the break in football last season caused by the Coronavirus pandemic, Matchdays 14 to 17 will take place in 2021.
