Is Ipswich vs Arsenal on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Premier League fixture

Arsenal EPL Ipswich (Organization) the Premier League Aston Villa Liam Delap Mikel Arteta UEFA Champions League Liverpool

Ipswich’s Premier League status is safe for another week though relegation looms as they welcome Arsenal to Portman Road.

West Ham’s draw against Southampton on Saturday leaves them 15 points ahead of Kieran McKenna’s side with five games to come after this clash, just about keeping Ipswich alive.

It could be a decisive weekend at the top of the table, though - if Arsenal are shocked here, Liverpool would secure the title if they beat Leicester later.

After the emotional high of Champions League success over Real Madrid in midweek, Mikel Arteta’s side could yet be caught off-guard.

Here’s everything you need to know:

When is Ipswich vs Arsenal?

Ipswich vs Arsenal is due to kick off at 2pm BST on Sunday 20 April at Portman Road.

How can I watch it?

Viewers in the United Kingdom can watch the match live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League, with coverage on the channels from 1pm BST. Subscribers can stream the action via Sky Go.

Team news

Mikel Arteta said he would have a renewed focus on the Premier League given the form of the teams below Arsenal and that’s borne out in his team selection.

Bukayo Saka starts his first league match since returning from injury, with Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli completing the front three. Ben White and Oleksandr Zinchenko are the starting full-backs, while Mikel Merino slots into midfield alongside Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice.

Meanwhile for Ipswich, Liam Delap is only deemed fit enough for the bench and Jaden Philogene, Kalvin Phillips and Omari Hutchinson are all still out injured.

Confirmed line-ups

Ipswich XI: Palmer; Tuanzebe, O'Shea, Greaves, Davis; Morsy, Cajuste; Johnson, Enciso, Clarke; Hirst

Arsenal XI: Raya; White, Saliba, Kiwior, Zinchenko; Rice, Merino, Odegaard; Saka, Trossard, Martinelli

Odds

Ipswich win 8/1

Draw 4/1

Arsenal win 17/40
