Four of Newcastle United's Barclays Premier League fixtures in December have been chosen for live broadcast.
Sky Sports have chosen to show home clashes with Liverpool and Aston Villa, as well as a trip to Tottenham Hotspur.
And BT Sport have selected one match - the Magpies' Boxing Day home game with Everton.
December kicks off with the visit of Liverpool to Tyneside, which will now take place on Sunday, 6th December, with a 4pm kick-off.
The following weekend, Newcastle travel to the capital to play Tottenham, and that fixture has also been pushed back a day and will kick-off at 4pm on Sunday, 13th December.
Next up for United is a match against Aston Villa, which remains on Saturday, 19th December, but will kick-off at 5.30pm, with Magpies fans hoping for an early Christmas present in the shape of three points.
Finally, Boxing Day sees Steve McClaren's side entertain Everton at St. James' Park, and after picking up a 3-2 home victory over the Toffees last season, it will be essential viewing again this year, with kick-off 5.30pm.
The Club is liaising with Newcastle City Council and transport operators to assess public transport provisions on Boxing Day and any further updates will be issued in due course.
