Liverpool’s Premier League schedule for the 2023/24 season is now complete, with the date and time of their penultimate match set.
The remaining TV selections for the crusade were shown today on the EPL’s official website, with the Reds’ match against Aston Villa moved to Monday, May 13 with a kick-off at 8pm, live on Sky Sports.
This means that every game in our league up to the last day of the season has been decided by television policy through one of the UK’s two major broadcasters, as befits a team involved in the name race.

Jurgen Klopp would have arguably mixed emotions over the postponement of the date and time of Liverpool’s trip to Villa Park next month.
On the one hand, it will guarantee a four-day break between a potential Europa League semi-final and this stop in the Midlands, a generous gap to balance domestic and continental commitments.
If the Reds are eliminated by Atalanta in the quarter-finals, we will have 8 days after the home game against Tottenham to prepare for the clash against Unai Emery’s team.

Klopp has expressed anger at Liverpool’s 12:30pm kick-off. On Saturday, right after an overseas break or Wednesday night’s game, so you’ll probably appreciate the longer break this time around.
Conversely, betting one last time on the penultimate weekend of the season means that Manchester City and Arsenal have a chance to get wins before our game, which in turn would increase the pressure on us to get a result.
There’s a lot to be said for betting ahead of your direct rivals and setting a score for them, with the luxury of status the moment they arrive.
However Klopp looks at it, at least we now have a transparent view of our full Premier League schedule for the rest of the campaign.
