Man City vs Liverpool fixture moved for TV but could change again after Champions League draw

Two of Liverpool's domestic fixtures for April have been moved as part of the latest TV picks made by broadcasters.

The Premier League have confirmed that two matches - against Watford and a huge encounter with Manchester City - will both be moved for TV purposes.

The first of Liverpool's fixtures to be moved is the visit of Watford to Anfield on Saturday, April 2 - the date stays the same, but kick off will now take place at 12:30pm and will be shown live on BT Sport.

Next, a potential title decider against City will take place at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, April 10 and that will kick off at 4:30pm live on Sky Sports.

However - Liverpool's match with City could be moved to Saturday, April 9 at 5:30pm on Sky Sports if either team is scheduled to play in the Champions League on Tuesday, April 12.

That will be dependent on the draw for the Champions League, which takes place on Friday, March 18.

Liverpool and City could still play each other in Europe if both sides progress to the next round and are drawn together.

The quarter-final ties take place either side of the Etihad league meeting - with a first leg on 5/6 April and a second leg on 12/13 April.

Once the FA Cup quarter-final draw has taken place, the Premier League is set to announce further fixture changes for April.
