Two West Ham United’s Premier League fixtures in April have been moved for live television coverage.
The game at Molineux against Wolves as been switched to Easter Monday 5 April at 8.15pm and be screened live in the UK by Sky Sports.
Sky will also broadcast the home game with Leicester City on Sunday 11 April at 2.05pm.
The Hammers have beaten both sides this season scoring seven goals along the way and will be hoping to complete two significant doubles over the midlands outfits,.
Arrangements for the away match at Newcastle United and home fixture with Chelsea currently scheduled for Saturday 17 and Saturday 24 April at 3pm respectively, have yet to be confirmed.
With the country remaining in a national COVID-19 lockdown, the Premier League confirmed on 17 February that all remaining fixtures in the 2020/21 Premier League season will be broadcast live in the UK by their broadcast partners Sky Sports, BT, Amazon Prime Video and the BBC.
It certainly seems that Saturday afternoons with a traditional 3pm kick off as become something of the past when significant or so called glamour games are concerned.
That’s a real shame for those who grew up with the “When Saturday Comes” mentality but with television now running the game, there is little chance of what some may have considered the good old days.
