The Premier League has confirmed Arsenal’s post-Christmas fixture schedule, with matches against Aston Villa, Bournemouth and Liverpool all selected for UK broadcast.
The first four games in December — against Brentford, Aston Villa, Wolves and Everton — were rescheduled earlier this month, and we’ve now got clarity on the rest.
Brighton’s visit to the Emirates remains a 3pm kick-off on Saturday, 27 December, while Villa’s trip to N5 on 30 December has been pushed back by 15 minutes. The away game at Bournemouth stays on 3 January but will now take the 5.30pm slot. Finally, the return fixture against Liverpool has been moved back 24 hours to an 8pm kick-off.
What’s still unclear is when the Gunners will host Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup quarter-final. The tie is due to be played on 16 December, but with Palace in action both two days before and two days after, reports suggest it could be moved to either 23 or 24 December – the latter being far from ideal for anyone travelling away for Christmas.
