Premier League champions elect Liverpool will feature just once on free-to-air television, while Chelsea and Arsenal won’t at all after the latest TV scheduling was revealed.

On Thursday, the Premier League released the broadcast picks for games up until July 13.

Between now and then 20 matches will be on free-to-air TV – starting with Friday’s 6pm kick-off between Norwich City versus Southampton on Sky Pick.

Overall there will be 33 free-to-air games – divided up by Sky Sports, Amazon Prime and BBC – out of the 92 matches in total of the Premier League’s resumption that began on Wednesday night. The other broadcaster BT Sport are showing none on free-to-air.

Following Thursday’s latest release though Liverpool fans without subscription packages will only be able to watch them once on free-to-air TV. That encounter is on Sunday when they travel to bitter rivals Everton at 7pm live on Sky Pick.

It could be worse though for Reds supporters. Arsenal and Chelsea’s following will have to wait until after July 13 to see if any of their matches will be on free-to-air TV.

Manchester United’s popularity is still evident as they have free-to-air the most of the top-six clubs with three. The Red Devils’ first game will be against Sheffield United on Wednesday (Sky Pick), followed by games at Brighton on June 30 (Sky Pick) and then at home to Southampton on July 13 (Sky Pick).

United’s noisy neighbours Manchester City have one game with their trip to Southampton on July 5 on the BBC.

Tottenham also have one game at Bournemouth on July 9 on Sky Pick.

The traditional ‘Big Six’ pale in insignificance it seems though with the ‘lesser’ clubs as Southampton have the most free-to-air televised games. Ralph Hasenhuttl’s side have five matches.

Bournemouth, Everton and Watford then follow with four matches each.

In total 16 of the Premier League teams feature at least once on free-to-air with Aston Villa and West Ham joining Arsenal and Chelsea in currently being snubbed.
