    Sky do a very poor job of advertising the 3pm kick offs, its like they dont want people to watch the matches.

    It's so their UK viewers don't see it advertised.

    Is it not invariably the match also shown on Renault Game of the Day on Sky PL or is that only picked after matches are over?

    Not always the same.

    I've seen them advertised on Sky Sports News during ad breaks on Thurs/Fridays. Also available on https://www.sky.com/tv-guide/

    Looks like a real borebag of a game. Is there not a better match than that?

    Believe it or not it’s the only one of the 3pm fixtures on Saturday where both teams are in the top half of the table. Leaving that aside though they may have been looking at quotas when they picked it.

    Thanks for that. Well spotted.

    Next year will be interesting, Amazon Prime will be showing Ten matches next year (On Stephens Day).

    Premier Sports have identical rights for here.

    Sheffield united - derby is on main event @ 3

    These are PL bank holiday fixtures though, so might be why there's no 3pm game on

    Sky showing a 3pm Championship fixture (in fact they are showing most of them, with the others on red button) is likely part of the reason why there’s no 3pm PL game on TV today. It’s not Saturday and there’s no blackout.

    Next year of course all the Premier League matches on St Stephens Day will be on Prime Video in the UK and Premier Sports in Ireland.

    To put a little bit more context, that’s on Saturday at 3pm in the FA Cup Third Round Proper.

    There’s a 3pm Championship KO on Sky Sports tomorrow, coincidentally also involving Nottingham Forrest (at Leeds). The one 3pm KO in the Premier League isn’t on TV.
