Why Manchester United vs Bournemouth is not on TV with fans unable to watch Old Trafford clash
Manchester United take on Bournemouth this weekend but fans in the UK won’t be able to tune in. The Red Devils have just crashed out of the Carabao Cup after a bonkers 4-3 loss to Tottenham, but they did beat Manchester City in their last league encounter. Amad Diallo was the hero for Man United at the Etihad with a late winnerGetty United came from 1-0 down in the closing stages to snatch a 2-1 victory over City and seal Ruben Amorim‘s most impressive result to date. But it’s still clear there is a lot of work to do and Bournemouth are enjoying a strong season. The Cherries are sitting sixth and have already beaten City, Arsenal and Tottenham this year. They also won this same fixture 3-0 last season. It was a huge result for Andoni Iraola at the time and sparked an excellent second half of the campaign. Meanwhile, Amorim will be looking to avoid his second defeat at Old Trafford. Last time the Red Devils played at home in the league, they lost to Nottingham Forest. Why is Man United vs Bournemouth not on TV? This Premier League game hasn’t been selected for TV broadcast, which means it won’t be shown in the UK despite kicking off at 2pm this Sunday. This is because this match was initially scheduled for 3pm on Saturday, December 21. So, despite the date changing, it still can’t be shown on TV. The fixture was moved when United made it into the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup and were drawn against Tottenham. That game took place on Thursday, December 19, meaning due to player welfare, the match at Old Trafford had to be moved. Instead, Sky Sports have selected Fulham’s home tie against Southampton as their 2pm match.
