Why are the games not on TV?Both of these games are not on TV as their original fixtures were not selected for broadcast.
If the original fixture is not chosen for broadcast then even if they are rescheduled, they will still not be shown on TV.
Brighton vs Crystal Palace was meant to take place very early in the season in September but it was postponed due to a rail strike.
This was then rescheduled to be played on Thursday, March 16 before once again the date was changed.
Another rail strike was announced and in turn, the Premier League moved the kick-off to 24 hours earlier on Wednesday so that fans would have access to transport.
