The Premier League live on TV: What channel is Manchester City v Arsenal?

'Project Restart' is about to reach its conclusion as the English Premier League returns this week.

Aston Villa host Sheffield United in the Wednesday curtain-raiser but the big one takes place later that evening when Arsenal travel to Manchester City.

It's a comeback more than three months in the making after coronavirus locked down football in the UK on March 13.

With Liverpool only two wins away from winning the league, City's title hopes are long gone but there's no room for complacency as their Champions League place is not yet confirmed.

Arsenal meanwhile have suffered a disappointing season but were beginning to click under new manager and former City coach Mikel Arteta before the shutdown.

In the other game, Villa are deep in relegation trouble and face a tough task against a Sheffield United side who sit seventh in their fairytale first season back in the top flight.

When are the games taking place?

Aston Villa v Sheffield United - Wednesday 17 June, 6pm

Manchester City v Arsenal - Wednesday 17 June, 8:15pm

How can I watch?

Sky Sports hold the rights for both of these fixtures and they'll be broadcast live on their Main Event and Premier League channels.
