Liverpool have six Premier League fixtures moved as gruelling nine-day run confirmed

Liverpool have had six of their upcoming fixtures moved due to live TV coverage over the coming months.

The Reds are currently battling to achieve a top four finish in the Premier League, and have won their last two matches. Victories over Everton and Newcastle United have seen the gap narrow between themselves and fourth place.

Jurgen Klopp’s side are currently seven points adrift of fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur, but do have two games in hand. Newcastle are fifth and six points ahead of Liverpool, and have played one game more.
