Revised Premier League fixture and TV schedule: What channel and how many games are FREE to watch? 

The Premier League countdown is on for the restart of English top-flight football as millions of fans eagerly anticipate its return, following a three month shutdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The action gets underway midweek with Aston Villa v Sheffield United and Manchester City vs Arsenal on June 17, those four teams playing their games-in-hand to level up the table for a final nine matches each.

In the first full round of fixtures, runaway leaders Liverpool will continue their campaign in the Merseyside derby against Everton. 

Should Pep Guardiola’s men lose against Arsenal a victory for Jurgen Klopp would see the Reds seal the title.

Here’s your guide to the season’s restart – with the remaining 92 fixture dates, plans for TV coverage and how many games will be free to watch for UK audiences.
