My point was intended to suggest a game involving one of the top sides would have been a better choice both on a footballing point of view and as a teaser to get more subscribers to sports packages.

If Swansea get a point at home to Everton on Saturday and Palace don't away to Man City then both sides will likely need a win, a draw is not going help either, a point or a less will put them both in the mix on the final day and Hull have Spurs at home and Palace are away to Man U.
As I say likely to be a really good match with a lot at stake.
Plus lets face it, the picking first match in a treble of Sunday PL games which are followed by 4 days of fixtures makes sense to me from the point of view of Sky trying to sell subs.
