The Premier League has today confirmed that certain fixtures will be changed, including some key matches involving teams such as Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool, and Chelsea.
According to the Daily Mail, fixture changes are due not only to these clubs participating in European continental competitions but also because Premier League broadcasters often intervene to alter match schedules.
These changes may include Liverpool’s match against Crystal Palace potentially being rescheduled for an 8 PM kickoff. The Aston Villa vs. Manchester United game may be postponed by a day, and the Tottenham vs. Brighton match will also be adjusted, along with their match against West Ham, which may be moved to a noon kickoff.
The most notable fixture is Chelsea vs. Liverpool, with Chelsea visiting Anfield on October 19th, local time; however, this match may also be postponed or even moved to the following day. Additionally, the date and kickoff time for the Chelsea vs. Newcastle United match will be changed.
The changes also include the Arsenal home match against Liverpool, originally scheduled for October 26th, local time, which will be postponed to the following day with a 4:30 PM kickoff. Alongside these matches, several others will also be adjusted.
