\u201cAh, 7pm on a Sunday, the home of Premier League football,\u201d said nobody, probably ever.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s fair to say that eyebrows have been raised by the announcement Everton v Manchester United\u2019s \u00a0kick-off time this weekend.<\/p>\n

There will be no Saturday lunchtime kick-off this weekend, to be replaced by a late slot on Sunday night \u2013 but why?<\/p>\n

RadioTimes.com<\/a> brings you all the details on a bizarre kick-off time for Everton v Man Utd.<\/p>\n

BT Sport had selected Everton v Manchester United for broadcast in week nine, with the game intended to be played in their Saturday lunchtime slot.<\/p>\n
However, United played against Omonia in Nicosia, Cyprus on Thursday evening, meaning there wouldn\u2019t be a 48-hour gap between matches. Teams are not permitted to play another game without that compulsory break.<\/p>\n
For this reason, BT Sport reserve the mostly unused 7pm Sunday slot for instances such as this.<\/p>\n
Of course, that hasn\u2019t gone down well with football fans aiming to attend the game, despite the close proximity of the teams with regular trains running after the full-time whistle blows.<\/p>\n
Had the teams been situated further apart, it could have created an even greater logistical nightmare for fans to navigate.<\/p>
