All change for Hammers October games

|

Live UK TV coverage of every Premier League match will continue into October after the government announced the suspension of plans to return fans to stadiums.

Although rights holders and Premier League clubs had hoped for a return to normality this season, the continued spread of the pandemic means live coverage is set to continue.

There are 40 top-flight fixtures scheduled in October, although kick-off times are yet to be agreed. September’s matches were shared between Sky, BT Sport, Amazon and the BBC, with Sky screening 18 of the 28 games.

West Ham has confirmed that their Premier League fixture away at Leicester City will be played on Sunday 4 October, with a 12 pm kick-off.

The match at Leicester’s King Power Stadium will be broadcast live in the UK on BT Sport. Broadcast selections for the remainder of October’s fixtures will be finalised and communicated on whufc.com in due course.

The Hammers face  Spurs away on Saturday 17th October,  Man City at home on 24th October and Liverpool away on 31st October with all three fixtures set to be moved away from the 3 pm kick-off to be screened.
