Six of our Premier League fixtures across August and September have been rescheduled due to live TV selections and in anticipation of our UEFA Europa League campaign.
In addition to the previously announced opening night game against Crystal Palace on Friday, August 5, we will next be live on domestic television on Saturday, August 20 when we travel to Bournemouth, which will now be a 5.30pm kick-off due to live coverage on Sky Sports.
The week after, we will again be on the same channel as we host fellow new boys Fulham at Emirates Stadium, which will also be a 5.30pm start, and we round off the opening month with a home game against Aston Villa on Wednesday, August 31, which will now be a 7.30pm kick-off to allow it to be aired by BT Sport.
September starts with a trip to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United, which has been moved to Sunday, September 4 and a 4.30pm start, broadcast live on Sky Sports, and a week later we'll take on Everton at Emirates Stadium on Sunday, September 11 in a 2pm kick-off, having kicked off our Europa League campaign the preceding Thursday. That game against the Toffees has not been selected for live TV coverage.
Finally, we head to Brentford on Sunday, September 18 to take on the Bees in a 2pm start, which will be shown on Sky Sports.
