Man City announce new dates for three Premier League fixtures including vs Arsenal

Manchester City have announced new fixture dates for three Premier League fixtures in the new year including the match away at Arsenal which will be shown on Amazon Prime.

City have been eagerly awaiting the fixture dates for the match with the Gunners as well as against Tottenham Hotspur. Pep Guardiola's side were due to travel to the Emirates in October but the fixture was cancelled due to the North London club's Europa League tie with PSV Eindhoven being arranged for that week following the death of The Queen.

The Blues will now travel to Arsenal on Wednesday, February 15 for a 7.30pm kick-off and the clash will be broadcast live on the streaming platform. Elsewhere, City's clash with Spurs was due to take place on the weekend following the royal's death but fixtures were postponed across the country as a mark of respect.

Guardiola's men will now welcome Antonio Conte's side to the Etihad Stadium on Thursday, January 19 at 8pm. The fixture will be broadcast on Sky Sports however it is subject to neither team being involved in a FA Cup Third Round replay that midweek.

Due to the addition of the Tottenham clash to the fixture schedule, City's match with Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Etihad Stadium has been rearranged. The Blues were due to play the West Midlands club on Saturday, January 21 at 3pm but now Julen Lopetegui's team will visit Manchester a day later on Sunday, January 22 at 2pm.

These new fixture dates mean that City will play Spurs twice in just over two weeks as the race for the Premier League title hots up. Guardiola's men are currently five points behind Arsenal.
