The latest official schedules list AFC Bournemouth vs Sunderland for Sunday, October 18, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. BST (UTC+01:00), or 13:00 UTC. The Premier League’s October fixture amendment marks the game with an asterisk and explains that Bournemouth and Sunderland play Europa League matches on the preceding Thursday. UK listings name Sky Sports as the broadcaster; Sky’s matchday schedule currently places the fixture on Sky Sports+. Check the club and broadcaster pages before traveling or subscribing, because Premier League dates and broadcast details can still change.
The Premier League’s fixture-amendment notice explains the asterisk beside this match: Bournemouth and Sunderland have Europa League matches on Thursday, October 15, three days before the league fixture. The Sunday placement gives the clubs more room between competitions than a Saturday match would. In the same notice, the league lists the kickoff as 14:00 and Sky Sports as the broadcaster.
The asterisk is tied to that scheduling note; it does not indicate a result, a postponed match, or a late change announced today. The Premier League also says all fixtures remain subject to change. Its scheduling guidance explains that live television selections, European competition commitments, cup progress, and other scheduling factors can affect dates and kickoff times. Fans making plans should therefore treat an official fixture page as the reference point and recheck it close to matchday.
October 18 falls before the UK’s 2026 return to Greenwich Mean Time on October 25. The correct local label is therefore British Summer Time, or BST (UTC+01:00). A 2:00 p.m. kickoff in Bournemouth converts to 13:00 UTC on the same Sunday, October 18. International readers should use the UTC timestamp or convert from BST for their own location rather than assuming that “2:00 p.m.” is universal.
The Premier League fixture list and Sunderland’s official ticket bulletin both show 2:00 p.m. BST. The club bulletin says Sunderland’s away allocation is 1,349 tickets; that figure describes the allocation, not current availability. Away supporters should check Sunderland’s ticket office for sale windows, eligibility, and travel information rather than relying on a fixture preview.
The league’s October amendment lists Sky Sports for the match. Sky’s Sunday, October 18 schedule currently identifies Bournemouth vs Sunderland as a 2:00 p.m. kickoff on Sky Sports+. That distinction can matter when checking a television guide or streaming package: consult the specific listing on Sky’s own schedule on matchday for the channel or service feed. This article confirms the UK listing only; it does not verify broadcast rights or availability in other countries.
For the latest match page, kickoff, and official Premier League information, use the Premier League Bournemouth vs Sunderland fixture page. The league’s October and November fixture-amendment notice explains the asterisk and TV selection. For the broadcaster’s current channel placement, check Sky Sports’ October 18 football schedule. Sunderland’s official ticket bulletin covers the away allocation.
At the time of checking, the date, kickoff, venue, and UK broadcaster are published, but a fixture listing is not a team-news announcement or a guarantee that every matchday detail is final. No starting lineups or match result are included here because they are not available before kickoff. Supporters planning travel should check for any later league amendment, confirm ticket instructions with the relevant club, and allow for the fact that station, road, and stadium access information can change independently of the match schedule.
For viewers, verify the channel entry and subscription access with Sky close to kickoff. For readers outside the UK, check the rights-holder in your country; the UK broadcaster listing does not establish international coverage. Rechecking the official sources helps avoid relying on older fixture-release information, which may show a provisional date or a different broadcast note.
