The 2019-20 Premier League season is set to restart before the end of this month.
The 20 Premier League clubs were on Thursday given a list of provisional kick-off times for the first three rounds of matches, as the season set to restart on June 17.
Between four and six of the 32 matches on the provisional list may yet change, but Brighton vs Arsenal looks set to be the first-ever Premier League game to be shown live at Saturday 3pm.
Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side had moved 25 points clear of their Premier League rivals before the Corona virus pandemic forced the season to be suspended.
They will almost certainly clinch their first title in 30 years over the coming weeks, however, and could lift the title when they travel across Merseyside to face Everton on June 21.
Manchester City will host Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal in their first game back, while Manchester United will face Tottenham and their former manager Jose Mourinho on Friday evening.
Third-placed Leicester City and fourth-placed Chelsea will play relegation-battlers Watford and Aston Villa respectively on the first weekend back.
All matches will be played behind closed doors and broadcast on TV, with the top-flight clubs agreeing to the use of neutral venues if necessary.
