The kick-off times for Watford’s home games against Liverpool and Manchester City have been changed after the two matches were selected for live TV broadcast by Sky Sports.

The Hornets were scheduled to welcome the Reds, who sacked manager Brendan Rodgers last weekend, to Vicarage Road on Saturday, December 19. But that contest will now take place on Sunday, December 20, with the game kicking off at 1.30pm.

There has also been an adjustment to Watford’s first match of 2016.

Quique Sanchez Flores’ side host Premier League leaders Manchester City on Saturday, January 2, and that fixture will now kick off at 5.30pm instead of the scheduled 3pm.

BT Sport have decided against televising any of the Golden Boys fixtures in December.
