Why isn't Everton vs Chelsea on TV? How to watch Premier League clash

Chelsea fans react to missed chance during the Emirates FA Cup Semi Final match between Manchester City and Chelsea at Wembley Stadium

Chelsea and Everton fans in the UK may miss out as their teams face off on Sunday

Chelsea travel to Everton on Sunday with a chance to temporarily climb above Liverpool at the top of the Premier League.

The Blues come into Week 17 two points behind the Reds, having played one game more, as Enzo Maresca's Stamford Bridge revolution continues. However, Chelsea fans in the United Kingdom may be disappointed the visit to Goodison Park won't be televised on British screens.

The West Londoners are on a run of five league wins in a row and have taken more points on the road this season than any other Premier League team. However, Goodison has been difficult territory for Chelsea in recent years given the Blues have lost in seven of their last 10 trips to the ground.

With so much at stake, Blues supporters will be desperate to see Maresca's men get the three points and maintain their title challenge. However, fans in the UK may be disappointed as the 2pm kick-off takes a back seat in the broadcasting schedule.

Why isn’t Everton vs Chelsea on TV?

Sunday's Premier League slate will feature five fixtures, four of which clash with Chelsea and Everton in the 2 p.m. slot. Manchester United will host Bournemouth at the same time that Leicester City hostWolves, while Fulham and Southampton are also due to meet at Craven Cottage at that time.

And it's the Cottagers' clash against the Saints that has been selected for broadcast by Sky Sports. This will change as of the 2025/26 season when Sky Sports is set to introduce simultaneous viewing of certain Sunday kick-offs that clash in the 2pm allocation.

For now, though, British viewers will have to settle for a face-off between Fulham and Southampton in Sunday's earlier kick-off. Each team in the Premier League must appear at least once in each TV slot, and this may be the reason for Sky's decision.

How to watch Everton vs Chelsea

A television broadcast of Everton and Chelsea's duel may not be available in the UK, but that doesn't mean international viewers need be disappointed. Premier League TV rights holders abroad can still air the game as they see fit, meaning UK fans will have to wait for Match of the Day's highlights recap on Sunday evening.

French broadcaster Canal+ will broadcast the game, while fans in Spain can tune in via Movistar+ or DAZN Spain. Sky Sports Premier League will show the clash live in Germany, meanwhile, and those in the United States can choose to watch the match on either the USA Network, Universo, Telemundo, or the NBC Sports app.
