February may be the shortest month of the year but it is still jam-packed full of blockbuster Premier League games.
We mark your card with five must-watch matches across the next four weeks.
February 3 — Everton vs Tottenham (12.30pm, TNT Sports)
Everton's 10-point deduction for breaching financial regulations has left the Toffees in a relegation scrap — so making Goodison Park a fortress looks more crucial than ever.
They start the month with a tough test against a Tottenham side they have failed to beat in six meetings, most recently suffering a 2-1 loss in North London on December 23.
Ange Postecoglou's men are chasing a top-four finish but have work to do after a spate of injuries derailed their exceptional start to the campaign.
February 4 — Arsenal vs Liverpool (4.30pm, Sky Sports)

The two leading contenders to usurp reigning champions Manchester City meet early in February as Arsenal welcome Liverpool to the Emirates.
The last two Premier League clashes between the pair have ended level, though the Gunners did secure a pulsating 3-2 triumph in this exact fixture last term.
Jurgen Klopp's side have a blueprint to follow, however, having dumped Mikel Arteta's side out of the FA Cup in their own back yard a few weeks ago.
February 11 — Aston Villa vs Manchester United (4.30pm, Sky Sports)
Aston Villa have been this season's surprise package and Unai Emery's high-fliers now know a top-four finish — or better — is well within reach.
Meanwhile, Erik ten Hag's Manchester United have struggled badly for consistency this season but still possess the individual quality to pose any opponent serious questions.
The Red Devils fought back from 2-0 down to beat Villa 3-2 on Boxing Day but Emery's men are a different beast at Villa Park, where United are winless in their last two trips.
February 17 — Manchester City vs Chelsea (5.30pm, Sky Sports)
After making an unconvincing start to their title defence, Pep Guardiola's City appear to be finding their groove but can ill-afford many more slip-ups.
While a new-look Chelsea are taking time to gel under Mauricio Pochettino, a thrilling 4-4 draw in the reverse fixture at Stamford Bridge shows how dangerous the Blues can be on their day.
Ex-City forward Cole Palmer struck a last-minute equaliser against his old club on that occasion and will be relishing another meeting with his former colleagues.
February 24 — Arsenal vs Newcastle (8pm, TNT Sports)
![Anthony Gordon netted the winner in Newcastle's last meeting with Arsenal](https://uk1.sportal365images.com/process/smp-image-api/livescore.com/07112023/354790e8-be52-41ec-959e-a43562591810.png?operations=fit(707:)&w=707&quality=100)
Arsenal's trip to St James' Park in November was shrouded in controversy after Newcastle winger Anthony Gordon's winner was allowed to stand despite the ball appearing to go out of play in the build-up.
The Gunners will therefore be extra motivated to exact revenge on Eddie Howe's Magpies, who have not won at the Emirates since November 2010.
After defying the odds en route to a top-four finish last season, the visitors will be desperate to rediscover their best form in the coming months.
