The reason all matches are not broadcast is due to television laws in the United Kingdom. Broadcasters are not allowed to broadcast Saturday matches at 3:00 p.m. in the UK.

“Football’s TV blackout rule prevents live football matches from being televised between 2:45 pm and 5:15 pm on Saturday afternoons”. The blackout rule was introduced during the 1960s when Football League chairmen believed televised matches had a negative impact on attendances at other matches being played at the same time.

However, if you live in the United States and have a subscription to ESPN+ you will be able to access all the games.
