Four of West Ham United’s Premier League fixtures in April have been set a new date after being picked for live TV coverage.
David Moyes’ side, currently 18th in the table after 23 games, will start the month off at home against relegation rivals Southampton, which has been moved to 2pm on Sunday, April 2, and will be shown live on Sky Sports.
The Hammers' home fixture against Newcastle United, which was originally scheduled to take place in September but was postponed following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, will also be broadcast live on Sky Sports and will be played on Wednesday, April 5, with kick-off at 8pm.

An away trip to Fulham on April 8 has not been selected for live TV coverage and will therefore remain a Saturday 3pm fixture. Arsenal’s trip to the London Stadium the following weekend will be part of Sky Sports’ Super Sunday coverage and will kick-off at 2pm on April 16.
Bournemouth away on Saturday, April 22, has also not been picked for live TV coverage but could be set a new date if West Ham reach the Europa Conference League quarter-finals, with the second leg of that round scheduled to take place the preceding Thursday (April 20).
West Ham will end the month with back-to-back fixtures to be shown live on BT Sport. The home clash against Liverpool has been moved from Tuesday to Wednesday, April 26, with kick-off at 7.45pm, whereas the trip to Crystal Palace on Saturday, April 29, is now a lunchtime kick-off of 12.30pm.
