Since well over half of the total number of EFL Championship matches will be shown live on Sky Sports this season, it’s no surprise that Albion’s start to the campaign has been shuffled around as a result.
Albion’s first live showing will be their Carabao Cup tie at Rotherham, which is not part of the same league agreement. This game will kick off at 5.30 on Saturday August 8.
The re-scheduled EFL Championship games are as follows:
• Burnley home: now Sunday August 23 with 12 noon kick off
