The Premier League announced six changes to the match schedule APAfter the draw and announcement of the Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League schedules, the Premier League management was forced to reschedule some matches for teams participating in European football.
The match between Bournemouth and Newcastle, who returned to the Champions League, has been moved from 15:00 on Saturday to 14:00 on Sunday, September 21.

Two matches have also been rescheduled to a less popular slot at 20:00 on Saturday.
Tottenham will face Wolverhampton on September 27, and Brentford will play Liverpool on October 25, also being scheduled for the evening to remain on air.
Aston Villa against Fulham (September 28), Everton against Crystal Palace (October 5), and Arsenal against Crystal Palace (October 26) have been moved from Saturday to Sunday at 14:00.
