Table-topping Arsenal is in action for the first time in 2026 as the Gunners head to the south coast to take on a Bournemouth team in real danger of slipping into the relegation mire.
Arsenal delivered a statement 4-1 win at home over title rivals Aston Villa on Tuesday, and a win here could see Mikel Arteta’s men increase their lead over second-placed Man City to seven points.
After a bright start to the season, Bournemouth, meanwhile, is on a worrying run of 10 games without a win. With star man Antoine Semenyo edging closer to a move to Manchester City, the Cherries appear to be facing a scrap to steer clear of the drop zone.
Bournemouth takes on Arsenal on Saturday, Jan. 3, at the Vitality Stadium, with kickoff set for 5:30 p.m. GMT. That makes it a 12:30 p.m. ET or 9:30 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 4:30 a.m. AEDT kickoff in Australia on Sunday morning.
