Arsenal’s Matchday 4 trip is to Prague, not to a ground their supporters already have on the October list. Slavia Prague vs Arsenal is Wednesday 4 November 2026. Transfermarkt groups it with the 21:00 CET matches, alongside Leipzig vs Manchester City and Porto vs Napoli. That conversion is 01:30 IST on Thursday 5 November, and 20:00 GMT. One Bundesliga.com widget has displayed “20:00” for this fixture, which does not match UEFA’s usual 18:45 or 21:00 slots. Treat 21:00 CET as the working time and reconfirm on UEFA.com the week of the game.

Verification note (TheTriFusion editorial): Wikipedia’s league-phase page dates Slavia Prague vs Arsenal on 4 November. Transfermarkt lists SK Slavia Prague at 21:00 with the evening Matchday 4 group. Bundesliga.com’s liveticker names Fortuna Arena and shows a messy “20:00 PM” label, which is why the minute carries a confirm-on-UEFA line. India: Sony Sports / SonyLIV. UK: TNT Sports. US: the 3:00pm ET wave if the 21:00 CET grouping holds.

Arsenal’s route to Prague

The confirmed Arsenal dates already on this site or in the Premier League list include Leeds at home on 10 October, Lille at home on 13 October, Forest away on 18 October, Bayern away on 21 October, and Liverpool away on 1 November. Prague is the next European away day after Munich. It is a lot of travel. It is not, by itself, a team selection. The XI is not yet confirmed.

Slavia’s home is Fortuna Arena, which the Bundesliga.com match page names even while its clock label looks unreliable. Use the ground. Hold the minute lightly until UEFA’s match centre repeats it.

What this is not

It is not Arsenal vs Bayern, which is 21 October in Munich. It is not Arsenal vs Liverpool, which is 1 November at Anfield in the league. Search strings that only say “Arsenal November” collide. Prague is the European game. Anfield is the league game. They are three days apart and in different countries.

Slavia are Czech champions in the competition labelling some data sites use. We are not building a scout report from that label. The football you can fairly expect is a European away night: Arsenal trying to control the game, Slavia using a full home ground, both managers waiting until the sheet is submitted. Score predictions are not part of this page.

If the time moves

The schema startDate is 2026-11-05T01:30:00+05:30, matching 21:00 CET. Should UEFA confirm 18:45 CET, that timestamp is wrong and must be replaced with 2026-11-04T23:15:00+05:30. We would rather edit the page than defend a bad minute. Readers should do the same with their calendars.

That edit discipline is the product point. A match page with a FAQ, a visible clock and a SportsEvent node is only useful if one change updates all three. TheTriFusion builds those templates for publishers who learned the hard way during a clock-change weekend.

Working clock, with the caveat in the open

  • Local date: Wednesday, 4 November 2026
  • Working kick-off: 21:00 CET (20:00 GMT)
  • Kick-off India: 01:30 IST, Thursday 5 November 2026
  • Venue: Fortuna Arena, Prague
  • Round: UCL Matchday 4
  • Caveat: Reconfirm the minute on UEFA.com

If UEFA publishes 18:45 CET instead, the India time becomes 23:15 IST on Wednesday 4 November, not 01:30 on Thursday. That is a two-hour-fifteen-minute difference. Check before you set a day off.

Until UEFA repeats the minute

  • Check UEFA.com in the week of 4 November.
  • Keep Fenerbahçe vs Liverpool as the earlier possible game that night.
  • Separate Prague from Anfield on 1 November.
  • Wait for team sheets.
  • Use SonyLIV or TNT.

No odds.

Broadcasts

India

SonyLIV’s Wednesday night UCL row. The early band that evening includes Fenerbahçe vs Liverpool at 23:15 IST. If Arsenal are in the later band, you can watch Liverpool’s game and still reach Prague. If both are moved, this sentence no longer holds. The app is the tie-break.

United Kingdom

20:00 GMT on TNT Sports under the working time. Arsenal supporters used to a 20:00 BST October habit should add the GMT label so nobody turns up an hour early at a pub screen.

United States

3:00pm EST if the evening wave is correct. Paramount+. Confirm.

UEFA.com for the time, SonyLIV or TNT for the pictures. Not a third-party stream.

Practical checklist

  • Working alarm: 01:15 IST Thursday.
  • Fallback if the early slot is confirmed: 23:15 IST Wednesday.
  • Fortuna Arena, Slavia at home.
  • Not the Bayern game and not the Liverpool league game.
  • No leaked XI.

Hold the minute lightly, hold the trip firmly

Some facts are solid enough to put in a calendar now: Arsenal are in Prague, the competition is the Champions League, the matchday is the fourth, the ground named on the Bundesliga.com widget is Fortuna Arena, the date is 4 November. The minute is the soft fact. 21:00 CET is the grouping Transfermarkt uses with Leipzig–City and Porto–Napoli. A different widget has shown 20:00. UEFA’s own match page is the one that ends the argument. Until you have seen it, keep two alarms and delete one. 23:15 IST Wednesday if it is the early slot. 01:30 IST Thursday if it is the late slot.

Either way, the trip is not Anfield and it is not Munich. Anfield is 1 November, league, 22:00 IST, Sky in Britain, JioHotstar in India. Munich was 21 October, Champions League, 00:30 IST. Prague is the next European away day. Three grounds, three apps if you are in India for the league and Sony for Europe. Write the app next to the alarm. “Arsenal 10pm” is how you open the wrong service.

Slavia’s home support will be part of the broadcast story. We can say that without pretending to know the team. Arsenal’s team will be discussed in terms of who played at Anfield three days earlier. That discussion belongs to the Wednesday press conference. Quote it then. A predicted XI published in September will be wrong in detail and confident in tone, which is the worst combination on a match page.

If you are editing this article after UEFA confirms the minute, change the FAQ, the bullet list and the schema startDate in one pass. The current schema says Thursday 01:30 IST, matching the 21:00 CET working time. A partial edit is how a rich result shows one hour and the page shows another. Readers forgive a clearly labelled caveat. They do not forgive two confident clocks.

Arsenal’s month, written as alarms an Indian supporter can actually keep: 10 October 17:00 IST Leeds at the Emirates, 14 October 00:30 IST Lille, 18 October 21:00 IST Forest, 22 October 00:30 IST Bayern in Munich, 1 November 22:00 IST Anfield, then this Prague night. That is six sittings. Nobody reasonable watches all six to the end. The point of listing them is to stop the Prague page being asked to carry the Anfield kick-off, and to stop the Anfield page being asked to carry Lille. Each URL on this site has one whistle. If you only read one Arsenal guide this autumn, read the one whose opponent is the team you are about to watch, and check the zone letters before you borrow its IST hour for a different week.

Related reading already on TheTriFusion: Arsenal vs Lille on 13 October, Bayern vs Arsenal on 21 October, a Premier League page with the same clock rules. Anfield on 1 November is Liverpool vs Arsenal. For a calendar product or club-site build, see digital marketing, web development, and digital marketing.
