Sky Sports will show a pair of Chelsea fixtures live before the end of the season, after the Premier League confirmed the date and kick-off time for our clashes against West Ham and Everton.

The Blues will host West Ham at Stamford Bridge at the end of this month as planned following our elimination from the Champions League, with that London derby taking place on Sunday, 24 April at 2pm. The game will be shown live on Sky Sports.

We begin the month of May with a eagerly anticipated trip to Goodison Park to face Everton, where former Chelsea head coach Frank Lampard waits for us. That game will take place on Sunday, 1 May at 2pm and will also be shown live on Sky Sports.

Should the Blues defeat Crystal Palace on Sunday and reach the FA Cup final, then our away trip to Manchester United will take place on Thursday, 28 April with a 7.45pm kick-off.

If we aren’t involved in the FA Cup final, then that fixture will take place on Sunday, 15 May with a kick-off time to be confirmed.

Further details on all these fixtures will be announced in due course.
