[Albion] Chelsea at home - kick-off time?

FA Cup semis for Chelsea so game will be rearranged.

Chelsea have two other fixtures to be squeezed in Arsenal and Spurs.

Yes - looking at the calendar, Chelsea are going to have to play twice a week pretty much every week until the end of the season. I'm sort of assuming that our game against Citeh will be 23rd/24th April, due to City's Champions League involvement. Which means we couldn't play the Chelsea game until May (I suppose we could possibly bring the Chelsea game forward to Wednesday 10th April....but I'm assuming we'd want to delay it as long as possible to have the maximum chance of players being fit? Also, I think the EPL would need to get a dispensation from UEFA, as it would clash with Champions League fixtures??)

It still says on the tickets page that the on sale date for Chelsea is tomorrow, but am I right to assume that they won’t be on sale until the new fixture date has been announced?

Looks like GW 35 for Chelsea GW 37 for City as an almost certainty according to the FPL nerds.

So I'd imagine:
30 April/1 May = Chelsea
14/15 May = City

Shame if Chelsea isn’t the week before (days after their FA Cup Semi).
