Premier League 'to return with TV bonanza with five games shown BACK-TO-BACK every Saturday and Sunday and Champions League style format in midweek'

Premier League supporters will be treated to a 'TV bonanza' when Project Restart kicks off next month following the coronavirus lockdown.

With armchair fans starved of live football since Leicester's victory over Aston Villa on March 9, England's top-flight is reportedly planning weekends of wall-to-wall coverage.

It could see all 10 games over a matchweek put on live television, with five shown back-to-back on Saturday and another five on the Sunday, according to The Mirror.
