April 2026 is shaping up to be a jam-packed month for Arsenal, as the Gunners face the prospect of seven matches across three different competitions.
March’s international break brings little respite for Arsenal, as Mikel Arteta nervously monitors the fitness of ten key stars who withdrew from international duty.
Here’s your full guide to every Arsenal game airing live on TV and where to catch them.
Saturday, 4 April – Southampton vs Arsenal (FA Cup)
Kick-off: 8:00pm (UK)
Live on: BBC One, BBC iPlayer, TNT Sports 1, TNT Sports Ultimate & HBO Max
Despite losing the League Cup final, Arsenal remain on the hunt for a historic treble, and lifting a record-extending 15th FA Cup trophy remains part of that quest, as they face second-tier Southampton at St Mary’s Stadium.
Two consecutive victories over the Saints are part of the reason why the Gunners are heavily fancied to navigate this quarter-final tie and bounce back from March’s upset at Wembley Stadium.
As for the fans keen to watch Arsenal in action after the international break between 23-31 March 2026, there’s a variety of available options, ensuring supporters can tune in from virtually anywhere and follow the Gunners’ pursuit of silverware.
Tuesday, 7 April – Sporting CP vs Arsenal (Champions League)
Kick-off: 8:00pm (UK)
Live on: Amazon Prime Video
Speaking of trophies, there’s one that has eluded Arsenal throughout the club’s rich history, but it’s now virtually impossible to put it past Mikel Arteta’s side to finally ascend the European throne.
Despite pulling off a memorable second-leg comeback in their last-16 tie against Bodo/Glimt, the odds are heavily stacked against Sporting CP in this quarter-final showdown.
Arsenal are betting favourites in the Champions League odds for this clash, and some bookmakers and platforms are even putting the Gunners as the favourites to win the UCL outright.
They will need to win this tie first, and balance things out so that they can keep winning in the league as well.
Saturday, 11 April – Arsenal vs Bournemouth (Premier League)
Kick-off: 12:30pm (UK)
Live on: TNT Sports 1, TNT Sports Ultimate & HBO Max
While there’s no doubt that Arsenal will do everything to win a maiden Champions League title, Arteta’s sights remain firmly locked on ending the Gunners’ 24-year drought in the Premier League.
Sitting nine points clear of second-placed Man City, the Gunners are on the verge of winning their first top-flight title in the post-Arsene Wenger era, as they welcome Bournemouth in their first home league game after the break.
Arteta’s team would be well-advised to avoid complacency here, having lost two of their last three meetings with the Cherries, including a 2-1 defeat in this fixture last term.
Wednesday, 15 April – Arsenal vs Sporting CP (Champions League)
Kick-off: 8:00pm (UK)
Live on: TNT Sports 1, TNT Sports Ultimate & HBO Max
Unlike the first leg, which airs exclusively on Amazon Prime Video, the return fixture will be broadcast across TNT Sports platforms, offering wider viewing options for fans in the UK.
And a note – TNT Sports is switching to HBO Max, which launches in the UK on 26 March, so from April onwards, you’ll need an HBO Max subscription instead of discovery+ to catch all the action.
Sunday, 19 April – Manchester City vs Arsenal (Premier League)
Kick-off: 4:30pm (UK)
Live on: Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Premier League & Sky Sports Ultra HDR
There are a number of Premier League records Arsenal could break this season, yet Arteta would likely trade each one of them for a victory at the Etihad Stadium, where the Gunners haven’t beaten Manchester City in the league since 2015.
A ten-game winless league streak at City’s home ground perhaps best illustrates the size of the task awaiting the North London powerhouse in mid-April, with the outcome likely to shape the destiny of the title race.
Saturday, 25 April – Arsenal vs Newcastle United (Premier League)
Kick-off: 5:30pm (UK)
Live on: Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Premier League & Sky Sports Ultra HDR
Newcastle United’s glory days appear to be well behind them, which doesn’t mean the Premier League leaders should underestimate the threat Eddie Howe’s side could pose to their indomitable home record.
Apart from a 3-2 defeat to Manchester United, the Gunners had gone unbeaten in all 14 remaining home league matches before the international break, responding to that setback with three successive wins.
