Sky wanted to give viewers a unique perspective of the match by using a new camera angle.

This afternoon, Arsenal and Manchester City will renew their rivalry in a top-of-the-table clash at the Emirates. Football fans tuning into Sky Sports' coverage of the game will be able to enjoy a unique camera angle, as the broadcaster and the Premier League are trialling a new angle called 'Game Mode'.

This angle will give viewers a greater appreciation of the space on the pitch and more visibility into running lines and ball movements. It has been referred to as similar to the angles used in FIFA football games. This is the first game where Sky has used a 'railcam' to film the action at a football stadium, and it will be positioned at the same height as the gantry and run down the length of the pitch.

Rachael Nightingale, Premier League Head of Media Operations and Innovation, said, "The Premier League is always looking for ways to enhance the broadcast experience for fans around the world. During this period of testing with Sky Sports and Arsenal, we hope ‘Game Mode’ will provide a new and exciting way to enjoy the action at home."

Sky Sports Director Phil Marshall added, "We’re very excited to see what ‘Game Mode’ can bring to the overall viewing experience for fans and believe it has great potential when it comes to in-game innovation. We thank Arsenal and the Premier League for their support in testing this innovation."

The feed from this angle will be made available to all of the Premier League's broadcast partners around the world, and if the trial is successful, it could be rolled out for future Premier League games at the Emirates.

Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side will be looking to end Man City's unbeaten start to the season and the two teams met in the Community Shield at Wembley back in August, with Arsenal emerging victorious on penalties following a 1-1 draw after normal time.

This is sure to be an exciting clash and football fans around the world will be able to enjoy the game thanks to the new camera angle. Tune in to Sky Sports Football to watch the action unfold.
