Dates set for West Ham's March Premier League fixtures with Leeds United and Arsenal

West Ham have had two of their three Premier League matches in 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 of West Ham's fixtures next month will be shown live on TV, with two of them appearing on Sky Sports and one still to be announced.

David Moyes' side will now host Leeds United on Monday, March 8, as opposed to the original date of March 6. The match will be on Sky Sports with kick-off at 8pm.

Currently, the trip to Old Trafford remains unchanged on Saturday, March 13 at 3pm, but this is likely to change if, as expected, Manchester United progress in the Europa League and face a last-16 tie on March 11.

There has, however, been no news on this game as yet.

West Ham's final game in March sees the Hammers host Arsenal in a game that will now be shown live on Sky Sports at 3pm on Sunday, March 21, 24 hours later than the original kick-off time.

Moyes has already highlighted the importance of the Hammers' games up until the end of March.

If West Ham can remain in touch with the top 'five or six' teams by April then he feels a push for European football could well be on the cards for his team.
