Spurs vs Newcastle & Burnley vs Everton, Premier League Gameweek 9 Open Thread

In Europe last night, the clocks went back one hour which means that the time difference between Eastern Time in the United States and England is only four hours (until the United States moves its clocks back next Sunday). As a result, the games today kick off an hour later than normally scheduled.

The first two matches this morning kick off at the same time. Both Everton and Spurs had the matches moved to today because of Europa League commitments last Thursday.

And later, don’t forget, there’s the Manchester United against Chelsea game at Noon ET on free-to-air NBC. We’ll set up a separate open thread for that one later.

Here’s today’s TV schedule for viewers/readers in the United States:
