Three Everton and Liverpool fixtures moved as latest TV games confirmed

The Premier League have announced a number of fixture changes after the new year with two Liverpool games and one Everton switching dates.

The festive period and beyond always brings a busy schedule for top flight teams, with the FA Cup getting underway as well as a hectic league calendar - and this year will be no different.

Liverpool will also play their last 16 fixtures in the Champions League in February and March, when they'll face Inter Milan in the San Siro before playing the returning leg at Anfield.

Both Liverpool and Everton will play 11 leagues games within the next eight weeks.

And now a couple of changes have been confirmed after the latest TV selections from BT Sport.

Everton's trip to St James Park to face Newcastle has been changed to a Tuesday night fixture, with Rafael Benitez returning to face his old club on February 8th. The game will be televised and is scheduled for a 7:45pm kick off.

Meanwhile, two Liverpool games that week have also been amended.

Liverpool will now face Leicester City on a Thursday night, February 10th, with the game being shown on BT Sport - a 7:45pm kick off.

Three days later, they will then face Burnley - another changed fixture - at 2pm on Sunday. It has not yet been confirmed whether this match will be on TV.

Jurgen Klopp's men will travel to Milan to face Inter on the following Wednesday - which will also be shown on BT Sport.
