15-Second Brief
The Premier League has confirmed Chelsea's December schedule, but fans are unhappy about the traditional Boxing Day match being moved to December 27 due to television broadcasts. The Blues will also face Manchester City and Liverpool this month.

Chelsea supporters are left frustrated with the confirmed fixture list for December. The Blues have lost their traditional Boxing Day match due to TV broadcasting schedules.

Rather than playing on December 26, Mauricio Pochettino's side will face Coventry City, managed by Frank Lampard, a day later on December 27. Many fans are voicing concerns that broadcasting companies and the international market now seem to take precedence over loyal supporters attending matches.

The December marathon kicks off for Chelsea with a home game against Crystal Palace on December 2. Just three days later, on December 5, Liverpool will visit Stamford Bridge.

On December 12, Chelsea travels for an away match against Manchester City, where they'll come up against former players Enzo Maresca and Enzo Fernandez.

The last game before Christmas is set for December 21 at home against Aston Villa, with the year concluding on December 30 in an away fixture against Ipswich.
