The Premier League returns for another fun-filled action-packed season with changes to the rules and the way VAR is implemented.
TV coverage in the UK still respects the antiquated 3 pm Saturday blackout, while televised games are moved away from that slot, much to the frustration of many fans. As a result, there are only three games kicking off at 3 pm on Saturday, with the other seven games set for different kick-off times across the weekend.
