Where to watch the live broadcast of the Preston North End – Arsenal match, TV channel, time, lineups, forecast for the EFL Cup match

Arsenal will look to get back to winning ways when they travel to Preston North End in their next EFL Cup match on Wednesday.

The Gunners’ previous Premier League match saw them draw 2-2 with title contenders Liverpool.

Sunday’s thrilling four-goal game certainly felt like dropping two points instead of one for Arsenal, who now have to move up five points to catch Premier League leaders Manchester City. However, the Gunners showed their firepower by scoring five goals against Bolton in the EFL Cup last month.

Meanwhile, Paul Heckingbottom’s side currently sit 16th in the Championship but remain unbeaten in their last five matches. Despite this strong performance, they squandered a 3-0 lead on Sunday and ended the match against Plymouth with just one point.

Sports news looks at key details about the upcoming game, including how to watch the match, kick-off times and the latest squad news.
