Monday tea time visit to the Hawthorns
Burnley’s game at West Brom, scheduled for next weekend, will now be played on Monday, 19th October with kick off at 5:30 and will be shown on Sky Box Office.
That means there will be an extra charge for the game of £14.95 and that is the case also for the home game two weeks later against Chelsea which is expected to remain with the 3 p.m. kick off on the Saturday.
The Premier League have today issued the following statement for the broadcasting of games until the end of October but the concern for Burnley fans is that should this continue throughout the season, and given the number of games we have televised, it will prove more costly than it will for supporters of the bigger, more television friendly, clubs.
The Premier League today confirmed all fixtures until the end of October will continue to be made available for fans to watch live in the United Kingdom.
Under these new arrangements, the current live match selections will remain in place and will be broadcast as normal.
In addition, the five matches per round not already selected will be made available to supporters on a pay-per-view basis, accessed via BT Sport Box Office and Sky Sports Box Office platforms.
Clubs today agreed this interim solution to enable all fans to continue to watch their teams live.
The Premier League has worked closely with Sky Sports and BT Sport to provide this arrangement and is grateful for their support.
The agreement will be regularly reviewed in consultation with clubs and in line with any decisions made by Government regarding the return of spectators to stadiums.
Football is not the same without supporters at matches. The Premier League and our clubs remain committed to the safe return of fans as soon as possible.
The Fixtures Page has now been updated.
