Essendon will kick off its 2020 season against Fremantle in front of a passionate home crowd at Marvel Stadium on Saturday, March 21.
The Bombers will be looking to begin the home and away season on the right foot in the early afternoon game, which is set for a 1:45pm start on their home turf, particularly following a challenging opening clash this year against Greater Western Sydney at GIANTS Stadium.
The Dons will be buoyed by their recent performances against the Dockers, having proven too strong for them in both battles between the sides this year, claiming seven-point and 32-point victories in rounds nine and 22 respectively.
The news follows the fixture announcement for the quickly-approaching 2020 Marsh AFL Community Series. It revealed Essendon will face West Coast and Geelong in the pre-season competition.
The full home and away fixture will be released this Thursday, October 31.
