Dates set for Chelsea's March Premier League fixtures with Liverpool, Everton and Leeds United

Chelsea have had their three Premier League matches during March shifted around following the release of the Premier League's TV schedule for next month.

Earlier this week, the Premier League announced that it would continue to broadcast every game live on UK TV until supporters can start and make their returns to stadiums inline with the coronavirus lockdown being lifted.

All games will be shown on either Sky Sports, BT Sport, Amazon Prime or the BBC.

As a result of that announcement, all three of Chelsea's fixtures next month will be shown live on TV, with two of them appearing on BT Sport and one on Sky Sports.

Thomas Tuchel's side will now travel to Anfield for their eagerly anticipated clash with Liverpool on Thursday, March 4, opposed to the original date of Saturday, March 20, with the Blues having progressed to the FA Cup quarter-finals and facing Sheffield United that weekend. The tussle at Anfield, which will be screened live on Sky Sports, will kick-off at 8:15pm.

Four days later, on Monday, March 8, Chelsea will welcome Everton to Stamford Bridge for a 6:00pm kick-off. That contest was originally pencilled in for Saturday, March 6, but will now be staged a little over 48 hours later than first planned. That one will be shown live on BT Sport.

Five days later, the Blues will entertain BT Sport watchers once again, this time against Leeds United at Elland Road. The date for that game has remained the same - Saturday, March 13 - but the contest will now get under way at the earlier time of 12:30pm, opposed to the original kick-off time of 3:00pm.
