This bumper selection of games will include a trio of Super Sunday offerings that include three matches each.
A number of season-defining fixtures appear on the rota, with Liverpool's battles against City and Chelsea likely to grab the most interest. Brendan Rodgers' team, outlined by many as underdogs for the title, are just four points behind Jose Mourinho's team at the time of writing.
They have continued to play exciting, attacking football throughout the season—summed up by a combined total of 41 goals between Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge—while also appearing leaky in defence.
Thrilling action is all but guaranteed when the Reds step onto the pitch this season, something Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher is extremely excited to witness:
"It's going to be an incredible end to an amazing season and I can't wait," the former Liverpool captain said in Sky Sports' reveal.
Manchester United are only scheduled to appear on Sky Sports once throughout April. The struggling Premier League champions' trip to Everton—which sees David Moyes and Marouane Fellaini return to Goodison Park for the first time since leaving in the summer—is sure to be met with fireworks.
Both sides are competing for a place in European football, and by April 20, we can expect the tussle to reach the top five intensify. Moyes' return is sure to bring about a mixed reaction, if he outlasts rumours suggesting he will be sacked imminently.
Bleacher Report expert Guillem Balague doesn't expect Moyes to be going anywhere:
Sky Sports' jam-packed schedule may come as a reaction to BT Sports' aggressiveness toward buying football rights, as highlighted by the firm's £879 million deal to show Champions League games from 2015, per BBC Sport.
While both channels require a separate subscription in the UK, those who have the means will receive plenty of live games to enjoy across the next month, and beyond.
