Is Arsenal vs Man City on TV? Kick-off time, channel and live stream for Premier League game

One of the biggest matches of the season so far takes place this afternoon, with Manchester City taking on Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

It’s a match between two teams who battled for the Premier League last term, with this campaign's fixture providing the chance to make an early statement of intent. The Gunners could leapfrog City with a win, but will need to produce their best to beat a team who defeated them twice in the league last season before clinching the title as part of a historic treble.

The Gunners host a City side who bounced back from their first Premier League defeat of the season with a victory against RB Leipzig in the Champions League in midweek. Arsenal, meanwhile, won on their last Premier League outing against Bournemouth but were beaten by Lens in the Champions League on Wednesday.

However, with a new season under way, and the Gunners just a single point behind City in the title race, it’s a chance to land an early blow against a rival for both sides. Here is everything you need to know:
