SKY SPORTS will be televising Arsenal's clash with Liverpool, but they have decided to keep Everton's encounter with Chelsea off of our screens.

Instead, viewers can watch West Brom take on Stoke City. And it appears that this decision has ruffled a few feathers.

The Stamford Bridge fixture was moved to Sunday because of the Toffees Europa League midweek match.

It is set to kick off at 1:30pm BST, but Blues fans will be unable to watch the action as it will not be shown live.

Unbeaten Everton enter the fixture on the back of a 1-1 draw, meanwhile Antonio Conte's side are still looking to redeem the shock opening day defeat against Burnley.

The London outfit dominated this encounter last term, which resulted in a 5-0 thumping at Stamford Bridge.

However, Everton return to the fixture armed with a handful of summer signings in a bid to make this a closer contest.

Chelsea's TV absence appears to have upset a number of fans...

You can therefore catch West Brom's meeting with Stoke on Sky Sports' Main Event channel, with coverage starting at 12:30.

Tony Pulis will be looking to keep up the Baggies 100 per cent record when they welcome his former side to the Hawthorns.

However, the Potters are expected to arrive brimming with confidence following an impressive start to the league campaign.

There is no need to panic, you can keep up to date with ALL of the Premier League on the SunSport live blog.
