The first Tyne-Wear derby of the season will take place on a Sunday with a 4pm kick-off.

Of the seven of Newcastle United's fixtures that will be broadcast live in the opening months of the season, revealed by the Premier League this morning, the match against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light on October 27 is the one that jumps out for many reasons

To play the match with a late afternoon kick-off, given the trouble following the last meeting of the sides at St James' Park, is a surprising and controversial decision.

Newcastle's first match, away at Manchester City, has been moved to Monday, August 19 with a 8pm kick-off.

Sky Sports have chosen to show five of the Magpies' games up to the end of November. They will also televise the trips to Everton and Tottenham Hotspur, and a home clash with West Bromwich Albion.

BT Sport have selected two matches - home games against Liverpool and Chelsea, which will both now become lunchtime kick-offs.

The full list is as follows:

Monday 19th August, 2013 - Manchester City v Newcastle United (8pm), Sky Sports
