Liverpool handed new date for postponed Premier League fixture as another match moved

Liverpool have had one of their Premier League fixtures moved due to live television coverage - while a postponed match now has a new date.

The Reds are currently in the middle of an international break, as they rest up ahead of the season’s run-in. Liverpool are fighting for a place in the Premier League’s top four, and are currently seven points adrift in sixth, but with two games in hand.

Jurgen Klopp’s side have 12 league fixtures remaining this season to try and secure a top-four finish. They are competing with the likes of Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle United, Brighton, Fulham, Brentford and Chelsea in the run-in.

One of the fixtures moved is the home clash against Brentford. The match at Anfield is still down to take place on Saturday, May 6, but will now kick off at 5.30pm and be broadcast on Sky Sports.

The other fixture change concerns the postponed match at home to Fulham. The Reds were due to face the London club on March 18, but the game was postponed due to the Cottagers’ involvement in the FA Cup.

Now the game will take place on Wednesday, May 3 with an 8pm kick-off time. There will be no live television coverage, with Sky already broadcasting Manchester City vs West Ham on the same night.
