Nottingham Forest's clash against Arsenal will become the first Premier League fixture shown on new channel TNT Sports which will replace BT Sport.
Steve Cooper's side face a tough start to their second successive campaign in the top flight when the new season kicks off on August 11. The Reds begin their campaign a day later at the Emirates against last season's runner-up Arsenal.
Forest avoided relegation with a game to spare in the previous campaign but face a tricky beginning to the new season. They lost the same fixture against Mikel Arteta's team 5-0 back in October, although they did beat the Gunners 1-0 in May at the City Ground to end their title challenge.
And it has been confirmed that Forest's first game at 12:30pm on August 12 will be shown on TNT Sports. The channel will replace BT Sport which will be rebranded to TNT on July 18.

The channel confirmed they will be showing 52 live games from England's top flight throughout the campaign. After taking on Mikel Arteta's team, Forest host newly promoted Sheffield United a week later.
They also face tricky early fixtures away at Old Trafford against Manchester United as well as a trip to Stamford Bridge against Chelsea with a daunting visit to champions Manchester City to come in September.
The Reds will have to improve their away record next if they are to get anything out of those fixtures having won just once on the road all season in 22/23.
