Aston Villa boss Dean Smith is fed up with the late scheduling of fixtures this season.
Villa are due to take on Arsenal next weekend after hosting Southampton this Sunday.
The clash is due to take place next Saturday but there is not yet a confirmed kick-off time while clubs hold discussions over the new pay-per-view streaming service.
"It does upset things because you want to be planning ahead, you want the players to know what they are doing," Smith said.
"We still don't know when the Arsenal game is going to be and that is only two weeks away. It is nice to get plans in place and have an idea of where we are at."
