What channel is Aston Villa vs Arsenal? Kick-off time, TV and live stream information

Arsenal return to Premier League action on Tuesday evening off the back of a memorable 2-0 FA Cup-semi-final win over Manchester City.

Saturday's victory was the high point in Mikel Arteta's reign as Arsenal boss so far, with a brace from talisman Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's proving the difference.

They now go to Aston Villa, and both sides need a win.

The Gunners currently sit 10th in the table and will need all three points in their quest for Europa League football next season.

For their hosts, victory would pull them level on points with 17th-placed Watford as the battle to avoid relegation to the Championship continues. Defeat would leave their hopes of Premier League survival hanging by a thread.

Arsenal's visit to Villa Park is the second of two Premier League games being played on Tuesday night, kicking off at 8.15pm.

Earlier on in the evening, Man City go to Aston Villa's relegation rivals Watford - who sacked manager Nigel Pearson on Sunday, with that match starting at 6pm.

It means that by the time Villa kick off, they'll know what they need to do to stand a chance of survival.

Villa's must-win game against Arsenal is being shown on Sky Sports.

The game will not be free-to-air, so fans will need to pay to watch it on TV or to stream it through Sky Go or Now TV.

The 6pm clash at Vicarage Road between Watford and Man City is also on Sky, and is on free-to-air on Pick.
