Newcastle opener at West Ham among two trips to London in first month as Premier League announces full fixture list for 2020/21 season
Tuesday 8 September 2020 17:40, UK
Newcastle United's opening Premier League clash with West Ham on Saturday, September 12 will now be shown live on Sky Sports.
At a Premier League Shareholders' meeting, clubs agreed that all 28 matches scheduled to be played in September will be broadcast live in the UK, via the League's existing broadcasting partners - and Newcastle's clash with West Ham is one of those with a revised kick-off time of 8pm.
Next up for Newcastle is Brighton in their first match at St. James' Park on September 19, before they return to London to face Spurs on September 26.
The festive period could be as defining a period as any in Newcastle's season, with consecutive matches against newly-promoted West Brom, Leeds and Fulham coming before a daunting run into the New Year that sees the Magpies face Manchester City, champions Liverpool, Leicester, Sheffield United and Arsenal.
