Nottingham Forest v Arsenal clash first game to be shown live by new sports channel

Nottingham Forest's trip to Arsenal will be the first game to be screened via TNT Sports after they picked up BT Sport's package of 32 12.30pm kick-offs.

The Premier League season gets under way on Friday, August 11, with Manchester City visiting Burnley for an evening kick-off.

The following day, Forest's trip to the Emirates will be shown by TNT, who have taken over from BT ahead of the new season.

It is a seriously tough opener for Steve Cooper's side given Arsenal were challenging for the title last term but were eventually beaten to the crown by Manchester City.

Forest's opening games are extraordinarily tough with trips to Manchester United, Chelsea and Manchester City making up their first four away games.

After the non-televised 3pm games on Saturday, Newcastle then welcome Aston Villa for a 5.30pm match which will be screened on Sky Sports.

The broadcaster then has a double header "Super Sunday" which is focused entirely on west London when Brentford host Tottenham at the Gtech Community Stadium before Chelsea play Liverpool at Stamford Bridge.

Manchester United then take on Wolves in the first Monday Night Football of the season, which will be screened from Old Trafford by Sky Sports.

The current Premier League TV deal is in place until 2025, and ensures that 200 of the 380 matches are shown live.
