Chelsea play Liverpool on the Sunday and are through in the Europa League so that will stay at the current time. 

Good luck to Sky planning that weekend

With Arsenal still in the Europa, does this mean our fixture could still be changed.

Yes. If they get through the next round our game will move to Sunday 28th April, 12:00 KO

Arsenal are looking good right now, so if they get a half decent draw I think you'll be in luck.

[KrefelderFox666]

After that draw, it looks like the game will be Monday. Arsenal have their hands full getting past Napoli.

After confirmed CL dates, there will be no movement of Sky TV games. So Leicester vs Newcastle will be played on Friday night.

Happy that Arsenal will now be on the Sunday so I can make the game

Arsenal play the Wednesday before so Friday is out. And the TV slots for Saturday (and Friday for that matter) are taken. It's all due to it being televised.

Ahhhh okay

Can’t see why Arsenal game will have to be changed. Arsenal played Watford last Monday Night then played in Europa League Thursday. So what’s the difference 

[worth_the_wait]

True.   And yesterday's 2nd leg was away in deepest Italy.   Arsenal's semi final first leg is only at home, so even less reason to change it.

 

The trouble is ... I think Arsenal will ask for a change, as it suits their purposes.   It will then be up to the Premier League to decide.  

 

That is effectively what the LCFC web site is currently saying. 

On the ticket information page   https://tickets.lcfc.com/en-gb/categories/home tickets

it now also says:

 

"We are awaiting final confirmation from the Premier League regarding the kick off time and date for this fixture, as soon as we have received the official note the information will be published here first !"

No complaints with that, Monday night games are dross.

No difference whatsoever remember when we played away in Madrid on the Wednesday we had a Sunday game at Everton which didn't get changed but then again we are little old Leicester

We played Saturday Tuesday. There’s no difference.
