Manchester City vs Real Madrid will be the first fixture in UEFA Champions League history to be played in the knockout stages in five consecutive seasons.

Great draw for Arsenal, should help them in the PL run-in too if both they and City progress.

2nd leg before EFL final, 2nd leg of QF before PL game at City but that is going to be rescheduled as it's down for Sat 3pm, surprised it hasn't been yet. City's home game v Palace has to be rescheduled too. Maybe they'll play that then instead and push back the H2H?

I think they are waiting for the result of the Man City v Newcastle Fa cup tie , if man city lose they can play c palace in the original game week

I think you are getting mixed up with the EFL semi final v Newc. The Palace game was down for the day before the final.

No argument , game week 31 is 3 weeks long which is unusual due to cup and international games

the original date of Man City v Palace was March 21st

Yes i know , the point is game week 31 is 3 weeks long , so if it gets moved to April 3rd/4th it is still in the same game week

The CL in a nutshell - a 5 minute draw out of a hat is more consequential than all of the 100+ games played before March, combined.

So it's the 31st game 'week' until someone plays their 32nd game, even if it goes on for 3 weeks with an 11 day international break slap bang in the middle of it.

And if City beat Newc in the FA cup then City v Palace doesn't get played on 3/4 April and if both City and Palace don't get KO'd from Europe next round and it's not played on 7/8 April the 31st game 'week' doesn't go on for 3 weeks it either goes back to being a week or extends indefinitely until the Palace game is played despite other teams playing their 32nd, 33rd etc games. WTF are u on about?

Game Week 31 begins on Friday 20th March at 8PM When Bournemouth play Man United , Game week 32 starts on Saturday 11th April at 3PM with all 10 fixtures scheduled for 3PM but of course some will move for tv fixtures , any game played between 8PM on Friday 20th March and Saturday 11th April goes into game week 31 , It is irrelevant if a team is playing their 31st 32nd or 33rd or whatever game if it is played between those dates it is in game week 31 . At the start of the season there are 38 game weeks it doesnt change , the dates dont change unless a match is scheduled for friday evening like this weeek then the deadline for the week is moved back to friday night , but they do not move back any earlier . If you need futher clarification check the official premier league site

Link to the PL site page that says that gameweek 31 is in fact 3 weeks long.

If City beat newc and either palace or city get thru in europe (more than likely) then what you are saying is bóllocks and right now conditional at best (aside from being ridiculous for being conditional, 3 (THREE) weeks long and having an 11 day international break in the middle of it).

Game Week 31 actually started on Feb 18th (Wolves v Arsenal) so maybe it is 7 weeks long Mischief

Don't see why no league games April 4th. The Week 32 could have been scheduled that day and so finish the season a week early. Even with FA Cup QF there would already have been 4 league games of Wk 32 that could be played that weekend, and maybe another 2 depending on how the 5th round goes.

It's ridiculous nonsense from a Fantasy PL mindset. A week is a week, not 3 weeks and the Palace game hasn't even been rescheduled and mightn't happen for 5 weeks. All the other pre-international break weeks where everyone played over the space of 3-4 days went on for 3 weeks too? Turn it in FFS

At the start of the season City v Palace was down for 21 March, so it does change. Wolves v Arsenal was down for the same date but was played in 'gameweek' 26 despite Arsenal playing Brentford the same 'gameweek'. If you need futher clarification check the official premier league site and go to 'Gameweek' 26.

This happens multiple times a season, every season.

Yes Man City v c palace was down for 21st march , in game week 31 , if it moves to 3rd/4th april it is still in game week 31 , how can you not understand this , yes wolves v arsenal was played in game week 26 because it was moved from game week 31 , do you get it now , the game weeks do not change , i dont know what tobermory is saying about game week 31 starting on feb 18th means , yet again the game weeks do not change , the wolves arsenal match was moved from week 31 to week 26 , it was then in game week 26 not week 31 , it is not hard to understand

You are talking about fantasy football, everyone else is talking about football.

Link to the PL site page that says gameweek 31 is 3 weeks long.
