Premier League have announced UK broadcast picks across the May Bank Holiday weekend of 1-4 May 2026.

Sky Sports will broadcast five matches across the Bank Holiday weekend, beginning with Leeds’ clash against Burnley at Elland Road on Friday 1 May at 8pm BST.

They will then air Arsenal’s home clash against Fulham on Saturday 2 May at 5:30pm live from the Emirates Stadium, as the Gunners face a tough test against their London rivals who are chasing a lower European qualification spot.

Sunday 3 May sees Sky air just one Super Sunday match which comes live from Old Trafford, as Manchester United host Liverpool in a 3:30pm kick-off which is due to police advice preventing a traditional 4:30pm kick-off.

Nottingham Forest’s trip to Chelsea consequently has been moved to Bank Holiday Monday 4 May at 3pm instead of its expected 2pm slot on 3 May, due to the possibility of Forest being in the Europa League semi-final first-leg on 30 April which meant that a 1pm slot on 3 May was ruled out for turnaround reasons.

Sky rounds out their Bank Holiday weekend coverage with a trip to Hill Dickinson Stadium as Everton host title-chasing Manchester City in a 8pm kick-off on Bank Holiday Monday 4 May.

TNT will broadcast Tottenham Hotspur’s visit to Aston Villa which is currently scheduled for 12:30pm on Saturday 2 May, but will move to Sunday 3 May at 7pm if Villa are involved in the Europa League semi-final first leg on 30 April.
