Premier League set new date for Man City vs Arsenal title decider: April TV fixtures introduced
The Premier League have announced a date for Manchester City vs Arsenal – the pivotal game of the title race – in the unveiling of their April television fixtures.
Leaders Arsenal travel to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday, April 19 for a 4.30pm kick-off live on Sky Sports. It is a game viewed as the final title test for Mikel Arteta‘s men, who are five points clear of Pep Guardiola‘s team – although they have played a game more.
Manchester United, playing without European football this season, have two games moved to Monday nights – against Leeds United and Brentford – while their trip to Chelsea is a Saturday 8pm kick-off.
Plenty of games are still open to being moved with UEFA fixtures and FA Cup games likely to play havoc with the calendar in the coming weeks.
The Premier League’s TV fixtures for May are due to be released in a staggered arrangement. Matchweek 35 is set for release on March 25, Matchweek 36 is due on April 1, 37 is due on April 8 and the final set of games on Matchweek 38 will be played entirely on Sunday, May 24.
