Why Wolves vs Everton is kicking off at an unusual time this weekend as Premier League clash moved to odd spot
Wolves host Everton in the Premier League this weekend, but fans might be confused about the kick-off time. That is because this tie is set to get going at 8pm on Saturday evening. Everton and Wolves fans are unlikely to be too happy with the kick-off timeGetty This is always an awkward time for fans due to limited transport options and longer days. However, those going have no choice but to change their usual plans. Why is Wolves vs Everton starting at 8pm? This Premier League clash between Wolves and Everton has been selected for TV broadcast by TNT Sports. TNT’s usual spot is 12:30pm on a Saturday, but they already have another game in that slot this weekend. The broadcaster are set to show Nottingham Forest‘s home clash against Manchester City, which is also live on talkSPORT. TNT have 52 live Premier League matches this season, but during a few previous matchweeks, they decided not to choose a game, meaning they have some extra slots for the remainder of the campaign. They’ve used one of them to pick this match, which at the time of it being chosen, looked to be potentially important in the relegation battle. However, since then, both sides have pulled away from the bottom three, with Everton 15 points clear and ten above Wolves. Still, this fixture is set for 8pm because Sky Sports have the 5:30pm spot on weekends, and they are showing Brentford vs Aston Villa. Wolves will be without star man Matheus Cunha after he was sent off in the FA Cup against BournemouthGetty The match was originally meant to take place on the same day at 3pm, but due to it being selected for TV coverage, it has been moved.
