Your guide to a better future
It's a pivotal match in the title race as the table-topping Gunners take on second-placed Man City.
Arsenal and Manchester City finally go head-to-head for the first time in the English Premier League this season as the two title rivals clash at the Emirates Stadium in London on Wednesday.
Originally set to take place back in October, but rearranged to accommodate an Arsenal Europa League fixture, the intervening months have seen the Gunners become genuine contenders to take this year's EPL crown, storming to an eight-point lead at the top before the World Cup break.
Recent weeks have, however, seen results slip, with the hosts dropping five points in their last two games against Everton and Brentford. A win here for City would see the defending champions -- thrumming with indignation at charges they broke Premier League financial rules -- leapfrog Arsenal at the summit of the league.
While this match marks their first meeting in the EPL this term, City did register a 1-0 win over Arsenal in the FA Cup last month, thanks to a rare goal from defender Nathan Aké.
Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game live wherever you are in the world.
With Man City likely to play a three-man defensive line, in-form Arsenal forward Bukayo Saka will be looking to take advantage of space on the right.
Arsenal host Man City at the Emirates Stadium in North London on Wednesday, Feb. 15. Kickoff is set for 7.30 p.m. local time in the UK (2.30 p.m. ET, 11.30 a.m. PT in the US, and at 6.30 a.m. AEST on Thursday, Feb. 16 in Australia).
If you find yourself unable to view the game locally, you may need a different way to watch the game -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN , make it really easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.
