Everton have confirmed the kick-off time for Sunday's Premier League clash with West Ham United has been changed.
The Blues were due to host the Hammers at 2pm this weekend, though a new start time of 2:15pm has been agreed as the game will now be shown live on Sky Sports.
Addressing this change ahead of the game at Goodison Park, Everton's official Twitter account tweeted: "Our game at home to West Ham on Sunday will go ahead, but with a slight change in kick-off time. The match will now start at 2.15pm as opposed to the previous time of 2pm. The change in kick-off time is as a result of the match now being selected for live broadcast on Sky Sports."

Frank Lampard's side saw their scheduled away match at Arsenal called off on Friday, with the other nine games in the English top-flight also failing to go ahead following the passing of Queen Elizabeth II. A further three fixtures due to be played this weekend will not go ahead, but the Blues are among the clubs to have avoided additional changes to their calendar.
On the decision to prevent a small selection of games from taking place, a Premier League statement read : "Following extensive consultation with clubs, police, local Safety Advisory Groups and other relevant authorities, there was no other option but to postpone the three fixtures.
"The Premier League would like to thank the UK Football Policing Unit and other police forces across the country, as well as our broadcast partners, for their support during this process, and will continue to liaise with them ahead of the weekend."
