Five of Everton’s Premier League fixtures in December and January have been changed to accommodate television broadcast schedules.
It means that the Blues will now not play a traditional Boxing Day game, with the home clash with Champions Manchester City now taking place on 27 January, with live coverage on Amazon Prime.
The home game against Newcastle United, originally scheduled for Tuesday 5 December, has moved to Thursday 7 December, also to be screened by Amazon.
That change means the Chelsea game at Goodison Park moves to 2pm on Sunday 10 December.
There is one change to the January schedule so far, with Aston Villa’s visit to Goodison also moving to a Sunday kick-off and will now be the main game at 4:30pm on 14 January.
The new dates and times (all GMT) are as follows:
Thursday 7 December @ 19:30 Everton vs Newcastle Utd — Amazon Prime.
Sunday 10 December @ 14:00 Everton vs Chelsea
Saturday 16 December @ 17:30 Burnley vs Everton – Sky Sports.
Wednesday 27 December @ 20:15 Everton vs Manchester City – Amazon Prime.
Sunday 14 January @16:30 Everton vs Aston Villa – Sky Sports.
