Five of City’s first seven 2015/16 Premier League fixtures have been selected for television coverage.

The season opener at West Brom will now be played on Monday 10 August, with an 8pm kick-off at the Hawthorns.

The huge home clash with last season’s champions Chelsea, which will be the first game played at a newly extended Etihad Stadium, will be played at 4pm on Sunday 16 August.

The next game at Everton will also be moved to Sunday 23 August, with a 4pm kick-off at Goodison Park.

The home game against West Ham will be moved to the later kick-off time of 5.30pm on Saturday 19 September. This game could yet be subject to another switch pending the Hammers’ involvement in the Europa League - the first group matches of that competition will be played on Thursday 17 September.

The following week’s trip to Spurs on Saturday 26 September will kick-off at the earlier time of 12.45pm on BT Sport. The earlier televised games will be on Sky Sports.
