October’s Premier League TV picks have been confirmed, with Liverpool’s clash with Man City among the games to be rescheduled.
Five of the Reds’ six league games in October will be televised in the UK as their schedule for the early stages of the season begins to take shape.
With the TV picks for August and September also confirmed in early July, the first three months of Liverpool’s Premier League calendar are now in place.
Two of the five games moved to October could be subject to further rescheduling, depending on Liverpool’s participation in the Champions League.
Apart from Liverpool’s home clash with champions Man City, four other games have been selected for television in October, including their trip to face Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
- 5 games selected for TV in October
- Trip to Arsenal: Sunday 9 October, 4.30pm

Newly promoted Nottingham Forest host the Reds on Saturday 22nd October at 12.30pm, live on BT Sport.
The fifth of Liverpool’s games to be rescheduled is the tie at home to Leeds on Sunday 30 October. Sky Sports will show it, with kick-off set for 2pm.
However, it is worth noting that the Arsenal and Leeds games will be rescheduled if Liverpool are booked to play Champions League games on the following Tuesdays.
