Why Bournemouth vs Chelsea is at 8pm this weekend as Premier League fixture is moved
Source:Live Radio,

Chelsea's trip to the south coast to face Bournemouth this weekend has been given an unusual late kick-off time.

The Blues' first game after the international break sees them take on the Cherries at 8pm this Saturday.

Luckily, the journey from London to Bournemouth isn't too bad, but it's still an awkward kick-off time so fans.

Why is Bournemouth vs Chelsea starting at 8pm? This encounter has been selected for TV broadcast by Sky Sports.

However, it will be shown live and has been moved to ensure Sky can show it on the same day.

Normally, they have a 5:30pm slot on Saturdays, but they are also showing Aston Villa vs Everton and have picked that one for that spot.

This means the Bournemouth vs Chelsea match has been bumped later into the evening, so Sky Sports can show both games.
