    I think Sky Sports have changed their main Saturday 12.30pm for this Saturday coming from Leicester v Sheffield United to Stoke v Hull

    Leicester v Sheffield United is now on Sky Sports+ & Stoke v Hull is on Sky Sports Football

    Shame Sky haven’t done that tonight - Middlesbrough vs Coventry over Southampton vs Leicester.

    Yes Tonight’s main offering, is a bit baffling.

    It wasn't baffling when it was picked in July.

    And Southampton are turning it around, you'd expect them to be rising up the table now, whereas Boro now seem slightly on the slide.

    Just asked this on the prem thread but ITV messed up a bit with Derby-Leicester surely?

    All the other championship games ITV have picked in 2025 has been in the Sun 12pm slot bar a Boro-Sunderland match was a Monday night IIRC.

    I know they have to duel with Sky but considering the paucity of prem games on Sunday to the neutral it would've been a nice pick from a lower standard prem Sunday selection of games.

    I love the Championship but I'm obviously not watching this game with Villa-Arsenal on at the same time.

    Neither Derby or Leicester even play in the following midweek round until Wednesday so no reason this game couldn't have been moved to Sunday.

    It's Sky who set the times, ITV just choose from what they're showing.

    EFL Cup Semi Draw on the way
    Chelsea Man City Newcastle

    And possibly Arsenal

    First legs on Tue 13 or Wed 14 Jan just after the FA Cup weekend

    Newcastle Chelsea and Man C play Sat 10th so this means a Tuesday 13th match can easily be scheduled now

    Sat Jan 31
    Leeds v Arsenal not on tv
    Chelsea v West Ham 1730
    Liverpool v Newcastle 2000
    Sun Feb 1
    Forest v Palace 1400
    Spurs v Man C 1630

    2nd leg either Tue or Wed

    But if Sky need to make it Wed and Thu

    Then you need to look at movements after

    Sat Feb 7
    Arsenal v Sunderland not on tv
    Wolves v Chelsea not on tv
    Newcastle v Brentford 1730
    Sun Feb 8
    Brighton v Palace 1400
    Liverpool v Man C 1630

    So the likely game needed to be scheduled for Thurs 2nd leg would be
    Palace v Chelsea as that only involves a movement of a Chelsea Sat 3pm non TV game

    If Palace progress the EFL will either:

    need to play 2nd legs on Wednesday and Thursday night and then ask the PL to move a league match from Saturday to Sunday which would then mean another match moved Tuesday to Wednesday. Unlikely

    Or

    play both second legs Wednesday night

    Or

    Make someone play 2 games in 3 days

    EDIT

    or Spurs v Man City super Sunday to Saturday 5:30 as a swap with Chelsea v West Ham to fix things so city could play Tuesday

    Can’t this wait until we have the confirmed draw?

    Well we know the draw
    There is only one either or
    So we can easily work out the potential issues already

    We don’t have the confirmed draw. Unless Chelsea are going to play both Arsenal and Crystal Palace…

    I just don’t see any point in trying to find a solution to a problem that we don’t even know is going to happen.

    If it’s Palace vs Chelsea, the second leg will be Thursday night with Wolves vs Chelsea moving to Sunday.

    Games already moved for TV won’t move again.

    To add, Chelsea vs Leeds the following Tuesday would also need to move which is not ideal.
