Chelsea will travel to the Emirates on December 29, while Manchester United make the trip to London on New Year’s Day.

It looks like Sky, BT Sport and Amazon Prime are going all out for the Christmas fixtures this year.

This has resulted in a lot of changes and rescheduling, more so than ever before at this time of year.

While for some fans, this means they can enjoy a whole day with their feet up in front of the TV, for others it is a true inconvience. Getting to games at that time a year can be difficult enough, to have them all reschedule is another kick in the teeth.
