Arsenal’s trip to Nottingham has been pushed back to 5.30pm on Saturday 17 January so it can be shown on TNT Sports.

The match will offer a different test for the Gunners than the home fixture which saw Arsenal run out 3-0 winners in Ange Postecoglou’s first game of his short time there.

Forest are, of course, now managed by Sean Dyche, who replaced the former Spurs manager in October. He has won two of his five games in charge.

Dyche himself has faced Arsenal 20 times as a manager. Despite the common belief that Arsenal teams struggle against Dyche ones, he has won just two of those games, losing 14 and conceding 32 goals.

Arsenal’s fixture on 28 January against Manchester United, currently scheduled for 3pm, is also likely to be moved.

The remaining league fixture that month that has not been confirmed is away to Leeds on 31 January and could also be moved.
