Tottenham fans not able to get their hands on a ticket for the first game at their new stadium will also not be able to watch it on TV.
Spurs will host Crystal Palace on Wednesday, April 3 at the redeveloped White Hart Lane on the same night Manchester City play Cardiff City, with Sky Sports showing that game instead.
Neil Warnock’s side were originally due to play City on April 6, but the game has been rearranged because of the FA Cup semi-final clash between Pep Guardiola’s title chasers and Brighton.
It’s fair to say there were a few Tottenham fans unhappy with the decision and they have expressed their disappointment on Twitter.
Spurs must get through two test events at the new stadium before they play Palace.
The first will be an Under-18s match against Southampton on March 24, with the second being a legends game against Inter six days later.
