The Sunday evening appointments replace the unpopular fan appointment on Monday evening (8.30 p.m.) and the appointment for Sunday amateurs (1.30 p.m.), which is unfavorable for amateurs, which have been on the schedule five times in previous seasons.
For the upcoming TV rights period , not much else will change on the Bundesliga schedule. The Friday game (8:30 p.m.) remains the same as the five games on Saturday afternoon (3:30 p.m.) and the evening game (6:30 p.m.).

On Sunday evening the kick-off time will change from 6 p.m. to 5.30 p.m. He doesn't want a dismemberment like in Spain , emphasized Seifert. “We resist the temptation to have six, seven, eight kick-off times.
