West Ham United supporters should note that the dates and kick-off times for the Club’s Premier League fixtures with Brighton & Hove Albion, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United and Nottingham Forest are all subject to change.
While none of the four aforementioned matches have currently been selected for live television broadcast, the quartet’s domestic and European cup commitments could yet see one or more of them moved.
Currently, the Hammers are scheduled to travel to Brighton on Saturday 26 April and Manchester United on Saturday 10 May, and to host Tottenham on Saturday 3 May and Nottingham Forest on Sunday 18 May, all at 3pm.
However, Brighton have been drawn to host Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup quarter-finals. Should the Seagulls win on Saturday 29 March, they will contest a semi-final on the weekend of 26 April and our fixture will be potentially brought forward to the midweek of Tuesday 22/Wednesday 23 April.
Should Forest win, then triumph again in their FA Cup semi-final, their final is scheduled for Saturday 17 May at Wembley Stadium. Should they go all the way, West Ham’s home game with Forest will be potentially brought forward to the midweek of Tuesday 13/Wednesday 14 May.
While the home fixture with Tottenham on Saturday 3 May has not been selected for live broadcast, should Spurs overcome Eintracht Frankfurt and reach the UEFA Europa League semi-finals, the first leg would be played on Thursday 1 May and our London derby would move to Sunday 4 May at 2pm.
Similarly, subject to the fixture not subsequently being selected for live UK broadcast, should Manchester United defeat Lyon and reach the Europa League semi-finals themselves, the second leg would be played on Thursday 8 May and our away game with the Red Devils would likely move to Sunday 11 May and a kick-off time to be confirmed.
A further update on both the Tottenham and Manchester United fixtures will be provided following the conclusion of the Europa League quarter-finals on Thursday 17 April.
West Ham United appreciates supporters’ patience and understanding in these circumstances.
