What channel is Aston Villa v Arsenal Premier League match on? Kick off time and live stream details
Check out how to watch Aston Villa v Arsenal in the Premier League this week, including TV details, team news, predictions and odds.
Steven Gerrard faced Arsenal 34 times as a player and will manage against them for the first time as part of the weekend's Premier League TV schedule.
As it is FA Cup quarter-final weekend, the lunchtime kick-off between Aston Villa and the Gunners at Villa Park is the only game on Saturday from England's top flight but it looks like a contest that is unlikely to disappoint.
Arsenal remain in the driving seat in the race for fourth place but have found trips to the home of the Birmingham club difficult since they returned to the top flight – losing 1-0 away at Villa in both of the last two seasons.
The growth of Mikel Arteta's squad has been clear to see over the past few weeks and months but Gerrard boasts a raft of dangerous weapons as well – not least the magician Philippe Coutinho.
RadioTimes.com has rounded up everything you need to know about how to watch Aston Villa v Arsenal on TV and online.

Our prediction: Aston Villa v Arsenal
Coutinho has enjoyed playing Arsenal in the past – scoring four times and providing an assist in nine previous games against them – and it would be no surprise to see him work his magic once again.
Villa pushed West Ham close last weekend and Gerrard's side are likely to raise their game for the visit of the north London club in the lunchtime kick-off.
They should be the fresher of the two sides given the Gunners played Liverpool on Wednesday evening but even so, you feel Arteta's men may just have a little too much for them.
Our prediction: Aston Villa 1-2 Arsenal (9/1 at Bet365)
