How the fixtures are kept
Fixtures, times, stadiums and results are read from each league's own fixtures page (or the data that page loads) twice a day, in English and in Arabic; a match is listed only when both agree. A match whose kick-off time the league has not fixed is left out. Club and stadium names are the league's own spellings.
The league prints kick-off times in its own time zone; the page shows each in Saudi Arabia (the same in Kuwait and Bahrain), the UAE (the same in Oman) and Qatar.
The channel is named only where the league or the broadcaster has announced it, with a link to the announcement; otherwise the page says the broadcaster has not been announced. Times can change: the league's page is the final word.
