And it also looks set to break records and end up as the most-watched match in the division's history, with millions expected to tune in to watch the encounter. The current record was set by 2012's derby between Manchester City and Manchester United, in which 4 million people tuned in to watch Vincent Kompany head home the winner in a 1-0 win for City as they closed in on the Premier League title. But with the free-to-air game between the Cherries and the Eagles the first terrestrial game in the division in more than 30 years, that record is expected to be shattered. In total 33 of the 92 games played after lockdown are being made available free-to-air, with Sky showing the vast majority of all matches with 62 in total.
