Is Liverpool vs Luton Town on TV?: How to tune into Wednesday's Premier League clash and access highlights

Why isn't Liverpool vs Luton Town being shown on UK television this evening?

Liverpool have the opportunity to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table this evening when they host Luton Town at Anfield. The Reds will reach 60 points if they can secure their 18th win of the season.

Manchester City have now played their game in-hand but thanks to a 1-1 draw against Chelsea last weekend, their opportunity to overtake Liverpool in the table disappeared. Jurgen Klopp must now seize this opportunity to make sure his side are perfect between now and the end of the season, to remain uncatchable as they race for another Premier League title.

Injury has struck the team hard though, and the Reds will be without a bulk of key players tonight. Klopp has ruled out Curtis Jones and Diogo Jota after they were both taken off injured against Brentford on Saturday. The duo, along with Alisson, will miss both the Luton match and the Carabao Cup final this week, with further uncertainty ahead as well. Jota is expected to be out 'for months' after suffering a knee injury.

Trent Alexander-Arnold and Dominik Szoboszlai are also unavailable, while Darwin Núñez and Mohamed Salah are in doubt after concerns were raised after the 4-1 win over Brentford.

Despite their crushing injury updates, Liverpool will be hoping to bank a statement win on home soil and better their 1-1 draw at Kenilworth Road back in November. However, fans without tickets to Anfield will unfortunately not be able to watch the game live.

Why is Liverpool vs Luton Town not on TV?

Liverpool's must-win clash will not be broadcast on live UK television due to its previous scheduled slot. The game was originally due to take place on Saturday, February 24th but due to the Reds making it to the Carabao Cup final, it has been moved to today.

The original slot coincided with the 3pm blackout period, meaning the match was not selected for live coverage by Sky Sports or TNT Sports. Even after being moved, the fixture is not able to be added to the new broadcast schedule.

The Champions League also returns this evening, with Arsenal vs Porto and Napoli vs Barcelona both being shown live on TNT Sports 1 and TNT Sports 2 respectively at 8pm GMT.
