Does this mean that Luton will be 100% saturday afternoon kick off? I am flying out of luton on saturday morning and hoping it somehow becomes a friday nighter lol
November tv picks are supposed to be out by 22 September, but they won't know by then which teams will have League Cup fourth-round fixtures in the mid-week before Luton.
They might delay November fixture announcements by a week, or, if they schedule a Friday 3 November match, only pick a game involving teams:
- a) already out of the League Cup, or
- b) still in the LC but not playing the previous Sunday - ten teams play Sunday including Liverpool.
There are no suitable games (yet) under (a), but, under (b), possible Friday night games are Burnley v Palace, Newcastle v Arsenal, Sheffield Utd v Wolves, and Tottenham v Chelsea, as they could all play a potential LC4 game on the Tuesday.
They could also just make a team play with just 2 days between games. They made us play on consecutive nights not long ago.
