Premier League fixtures 2018/19: When do Sky and BT announce first set of TV matches?
PREMIER LEAGUE fixtures are out but when will the TV schedule be confirmed?
The Premier League calendar has been confirmed for all 38 rounds of matches for the 2018/19 season.
But football fans will be well aware these are subject to change due to TV rights.
Sky Sports will show 126 Premier League matches for the 2018/19 season, while BT Sport will show 52 games.
That means there will be a lot of changes to the schedule this season.
Dates will also be altered due to European matches.
So when are Sky Sports and BT Sport going to announce the first lot of TV games?
Sky Sports say they will announce their first round of TV games for August and September later in July.
Last season, the live TV fixtures for August and September were announced on July 6, a month before the campaign began and we can expect the same again this time.
The Premier League season gets underway on August 11, 27 days after the World Cup final.
