Premier League festive schedule REVEALED

The Premier League's festive schedule has been confirmed after the top flight revealed the TV picks for December and January.

The 2024-25 season is in full swing, with all Premier League teams having played seven games and ready to return to action this weekend after the October international break.

And, ahead of a hectic run of fixtures, several top flight clashes have been amended over the coming months.

As in previous campaigns, all of the games in the midweek period of December 3 to December 5 will be shown live on Amazon Prime. 

Amazon Prime also have exclusive access to the 10 fixtures on the Boxing Day gameweek, with Manchester City's clash with Everton set to kick off proceedings at 12.30PM.

Several other rivalries have also been moved for broadcast reasons, with Manchester United vs Manchester City now taking place on Sunday December 15 at 4:30PM on Sky Sports.

However, bizarrely, both Chelsea vs Brentford and Southampton vs Tottenham are scheduled to take place at 7PM on that same day, an unprecedented kick off time. 

Many games have been altered due to European commitments, such as Chelsea's trip to Everton on Sunday December 22, which has been switched from the Saturday due to Chelsea's participation in the UEFA Conference League.

Tottenham's home clash with Liverpool, which was a hugely dramatic encounter last season, headlines that day's fixtures at 4:30PM live on Sky Sports.
