What is the format of the Premier League Summer Series?
Each team will play three matches and will not face the same opposition more than once.
The winner of a match shall be awarded three points. If a match is drawn, both clubs shall be awarded one point.
The club with the highest number of points at the end of the tournament shall be deemed the Premier League Summer Series winner.
If two or more clubs have the same number of points, their position in the table shall be determined on goal difference.
If the goal difference is the same as well, the higher-placed club will be the one having scored the most goals in the tournament.
If the clubs cannot be separated by points, goal difference or goals scored, the higher-placed club will be the one who has won more points in matches between those clubs.
Where are the matches being played?
The Premier League Summer Series takes place in the United States in New Jersey, Chicago and Atlanta. The four teams will all play one fixture in each city.
