Football is back.
Well, not NFL football, but soccer.
The world’s most popular league returns this week as the English Premier League kicks off its 2017/18 campaign on Friday afternoon.
The recent winners of the FA Community Shield, Arsenal, will get the festivities underway at 2:45 p.m. ET as they host the improbable 2015/16 title winners Leicester City for the first match of the Premier League season.
Arsenal will be looking to improve off of a fifth-place finish last season, which is dismal by their standards. The last time the Gunners finished that low was the 1995/96 season, one year before Arsene Wenger came on as manager.
Here are the best places in New York City to catch all of their fixtures:
