Three Liverpool fixture changes confirmed for TV with new Everton derby date

Liverpool will now face Everton on a Monday night after three of the Reds' February Premier League fixtures were rearranged for live television coverage.

The Merseyside Derby will now take place at Anfield on Monday, February 13 with an 8pm kick-off. The match will be shown live on Sky Sports.

The Reds' trip to Newcastle United has been pushed back to a 5.30pm kick-off on Saturday, February 18. It will also be broadcast live by Sky Sports.

Jurgen Klopp's side will have an even later Saturday night kick-off when they visit Selhurst Park to face Crystal Palace on Saturday, February 25. The match will once again be shown live by Sky Sports, but with a 7.45pm kick-off - a fixture time that will not impress supporters travelling down from Merseyside on the day of the game.

However, the late kick-off in the capital could be avoided altogether depending on who reaches the Carabao Cup final. Should Liverpool make it all the way to Wembley to defend their crown, the Palace fixture will be postponed. But if either Manchester City or Bournemouth reach the EFL Cup final (and not Liverpool ), then the Reds' Premier League fixture against the Eagles will be moved forward to the 5.30pm kick-off slot.

Sandwiched in-between the away trips to Newcastle and Crystal Palace is the Reds' crunch Champions League last-16 home leg with defending champions Real Madrid, in what could prove to be a crucial month for Liverpool's hopes of silverware success this season.
