Premier League leaders Arsenal welcome League One side Wigan Athletic to the Emirates Stadium for an FA Cup fourth-round clash on Sunday.

Mikel Arteta's side will be looking to avoid a 'giant-killing' in a bid to continue their impressive form across all fronts this season.

Meanwhile, the Latics are currently without a manager and have endured a tough campaign domestically as they find themselves in the relegation zone, just two points off rock bottom.

Here, Sports Mole provides everything you need to know about how to tune into the fixture this weekend.

This FA Cup fourth round clash between Arsenal and Wigan will kick off at 16:30pm on Sunday 15th February, and it will be the last of the competition's encounters that day.

Arsenal will host Wigan at their north London home, the Emirates Stadium, which holds 60,704 supporters.

The Latics have not faced the Gunners since the FA Cup semi-final in 2014. Arsenal won in a penalty shootout, in which Arteta featured and scored the opening spot kick.

Meanwhile, these two teams last faced each other at the Emirates a year earlier, with Arsene Wenger's side coming away 4-1 winners.
