Arsenal will host Manchester City to cap a six-game Premier League Sunday in November – starting with the Merseyside derby.

The revised schedule for the month was released on Monday afternoon, with Everton kicking off a busy day of action on November 29 at 12pm when they host Liverpool for the second time at Hill Dickinson Stadium, having lost the first one 2-1 last season to a late header by Virgil van Dijk.

Four games follow at 2.05pm, with Brighton v Newcastle, Crystal Palace v Hull, Fulham v Bournemouth and Sunderland v Tottenham – a repeat of Roberto De Zerbi's first match in charge of Spurs, a 1-0 defeat in April.

Champions Arsenal will then welcome Manchester City at 4.30pm, in what could prove a key early game in the title race. After five games this season, City lead the Gunners by three points at the top of the table having enjoyed a perfect start to the season under Enzo Maresca. 

The glut of Sunday fixtures is partly explained by Palace, Bournemouth and Sunderland all playing in the Europa League three days earlier, with Brighton in Conference League against Romanian side Craiova the same night.

Nottingham Forest v Chelsea start the weekend on Friday at 8pm, and as a result of those changes just three matches will take place on the Saturday.

Leeds welcome Coventry in the traditional 3pm slot and Manchester United host Brentford at the same time –  the first Saturday 3pm kick-off for the Reds in their 12th league game of the season.

Ipswich host Aston Villa at Portman Road in the 5.30pm match that day.

There are just three rounds of Premier League fixtures in November, with a two-week international break to factor in.

In other changes, Liverpool v Manchester United at Anfield is the headline game at 4.30pm on Sunday, November 22.
