Re: 2018-19: Fixture Schedule and Changes
Tottenham Hotspur will host Chelsea at Wembley Stadium in an 8pm kick-off on Tuesday 8 January followed by Burton Albion visiting Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday 9 January at 7:45pm.
As a result of potential fixture congestion, the 2nd-leg dates cannot be confirmed at this current time.

Re: 2018-19: Fixture Schedule and Changes
EFL Statement
Confirmed dates for the first leg ties were released earlier this week but finalising arrangements for the return legs is being held up by a complicated and congested fixture schedule.
The challenge comes as a result of Club involvement in multiple competitions, and the EFL is working closely with the Premier League and the Football Association to reach an acceptable solution for all parties.
The situation as it stands is as follows:
Both Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur have games currently scheduled for Sunday 20 January, and therefore would wish to avoid playing their second legs on Tuesday 22 January.
If either Club was asked to play on Thursday 24 January, then their potential involvement in the FA Cup Fourth Round needs to be considered the following weekend, as the FA cannot guarantee scheduling either side on Sunday 27 January if either Tottenham Hotspur or Chelsea draw Newcastle United or Manchester City.
This is because Newcastle United play Manchester City in a Premier League live television game the following Tuesday 29 January which cannot move.
A decision will therefore be taken with the involvement of all parties when the options are clearer following the completion of the FA Cup Round Four Draw.

Re: 2018-19: Fixture Schedule and Changes
Given Man City's PL games on Sun 20th and Tue 29th on TV, you'd expect their Burton game to fall on Wed 23rd, and Burnley FA Cup game on Sat 26th.
Spurs-Chelsea league cup game can go on Thu 24th with little issue now, both can play FA Cup on Sunday (Palace v Spurs - both have Wednesday league games following; and Chelsea v SheffW/Luton - just will shift Chelsea's game to Wednesday)
And I'd put short odds on Arsenal-Man U being the Friday night FA cup game on BBC

Re: 2018-19: Fixture Schedule and Changes
There IS the real possibility this season of fixture congestion
Due to the last midweek having a UEFA competition
There are only 2 Midweeks to fit in the rearranged games
Weds Apr 3rd
Weds Apr 24th
We now have
Chelsea
Man City
Brighton
Everton
Who could have 3 PL games to re arrange
Sat Feb 23rd
Sat Mar 16th
Sat Apr 6th
This all depends on the FA Cup Semi Finalists

Re: 2018-19: Fixture Schedule and Changes
I worded the reply badly
But if Chelsea beat Man U
Get drawn at home
And are still in Europa League on Thursday 14th March
The match at Chelsea must be played Sun 17th March Monday is International Break
So Fulham may be moved on Police advice

Re: 2018-19: Fixture Schedule and Changes
Wolves were due to play United in the league on FA cup semi final weekend but one of them will qualify so that'll need to move. Have I imagined it or has the rule about PL games not being scheduled on UEFA competition nights been relaxed? If United go out to PSG they'll have plenty of spare midweeks.

Re: 2018-19: Fixture Schedule and Changes
PSG are live on TV on Weds at 8
The only game that possibly needs to be played in a UEFA midweek is Cardiff v Brighton
Weds 3rd
Weds 24th
Midweeks are clear
To re arrange the Mar 16th and Apr 6th games postponed
I guess the only issue is can Sky show a Thurs live game on Apr 4th ??
It would mean that club having to play a Sunday Semi Final
