Tottenham Hotspur, currently in a precarious position, are due to play against Leicester City, who are also battling relegation fears, this Sunday afternoon.

The stakes are high for Spurs' manager Ange Postecoglou, especially after a disheartening 3-2 loss to Everton.

Leicester, presently 15th in the Premier League, are a crucial opponent for the north London team at this juncture. A victory would silence any whispers of relegation and bolster the standing of their Australian coach.

Despite Ruud van Nistelrooy's squad not having tasted league success since December, Tottenham have found it challenging when up against such records, reports the Express.

Unfortunately, UK fans won't be able to watch the live action from Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on TV due to broadcasting decisions by Sky Sports and TNT Sports.

Will the Tottenham vs Leicester match be televised in the UK?

The game has been rescheduled to a 2pm kick-off on Sunday due to Tottenham's Europa League obligations on Thursday - a situation that also impacts Aston Villa and Manchester United.

Sky Sports has opted to broadcast Brentford's trip to Crystal Palace, scheduled for 2pm on Sunday, over the Spurs game. This will be followed by Aston Villa vs West Ham at 4:30pm.

Meanwhile, TNT Sports has chosen Fulham vs United for a 7pm airing.

However, this set-up, which leaves Tottenham's match off-air, is set to change from next season. Under the Premier League's new TV deal, all games not slated for a 3pm kick-off on Saturday will be broadcast live in the UK.

How can supporters tune into Tottenham vs Leicester?

While UK viewers won't be able to watch the match live, international fans can access the game through their local Premier League TV rights holders.

For example, in the United States, NBCUniversal has the broadcasting rights for all 380 Premier League matches this season, allowing American fans to catch the pivotal clash live.
