Burnley Football Club welcomes the move to broadcast live all 28 Premier League matches scheduled to be played in September.
The decision, voted for at a Premier League Shareholders’ meeting on Tuesday and supported by the club, means that Clarets fans can now view the matches, which remain behind closed doors due to Covid regulations.
This means the opening game of the season, at Leicester City, will now be screened live on the BBC on Sunday, September 20 (KO 7pm), with a date and time yet to be confirmed for the opening home game of the season, against Southampton, a week later.
