Brentford vs Southampton live stream: How to watch Premier League game online and on TV, team news

The Brentford vs Southampton live stream will see the newly-promoted look for their first Premier League win of the season when they travel to face the Bees — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

Brentford vs Southampton live stream, Date, Time, Channels

The Brentford vs Southampton live stream takes place today (Saturday, August 30).
Time: 3 p.m. BST / 10 a.m. ET / 7 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. AEST
• U.S. — Watch on Peacock

Brentford are enjoying a respectable start to the season, an opening weekend win over Crystal Palace was a good result considering the Eagles have been tipped as a dark horse for European qualification this season. There was no shame in Sunday’s defeat at Anfield, plenty of teams will leave the famous stadium without any points this season, and a midweek Carabao Cup win over Colchester got the Bees buzzing. Now the arrival of a winless Southampton is a great opportunity to keep the wins coming. 

Southampton will consider themselves unlucky to have zero points on the board, but failure to even get a draw against a Newcastle team that played with 10 men for more than an hour was poor, and the newly-promoted team looked lacking in quality against a Nottm Forest side also expected to battle against the drop. If Russell Martin’s side are to prove themselves up to Premier League standard they need to improve rapidly or it’ll be a swift return to the Championship. 

Here's how they line up: 

Brentford: Flekkon, Collins, Pinnock, Ajer, Janelt, Norgaard, Jensen, Damsgaard, Mbeumo, Schade, Wissa.

Southampton: Ramsdale, Sugawara, Harwood-Bellis, Bednarek, Stephens, Walker-Peters, Downes, Smallbone, Aribo, Brereton Diaz, Armstrong. 

The Brentford vs Southampton live stream should be an entertaining game as both sides battle for all three points, and we’ve got all the details you need to watch online down below. 

Plus, make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.

Watch Brentford vs Southampton from anywhere

Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the soccer on your usual subscription?

You can still watch Brentford vs Southampton live thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. So ideal for viewers away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It's the best on the market:

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're away from the U.S. and want to view your usual U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to a service listed below that's showing Brentford vs Southampton and watch the game.

Viewers in the U.S. can watch a Brentford vs Southampton live stream on Peacock, NBC's streaming service. To tune in, you'll need to be signed up for either a Premium subscription ($7.99/month) or Premium Plus ($13.99/month, which also gets rid of some ads).

If you're outside of the U.S. but have one of these subscriptions, you can watch the Brentford vs Southampton live stream by using a VPN such as NordVPN.

Unfortunately, there will be no Brentford vs Southampton live stream in the United Kingdom. That's because U.K. broadcasters are blocked from airing Saturday 3 p.m. kick-offs to protect attendances elsewhere in the football pyramid.

U.S. fans visiting the U.K. can use one of the best VPN services to access their usual streaming service from abroad. We recommend NordVPN.

As it stands, live Premier League rights are split three ways in the U.K. between Sky Sports, TNT Sports and Amazon Prime Video.

For the 24/25 season, Sky Sports is set to show 128 matches live, while TNT Sports will show 52 matches live, including every Saturday lunchtime kick-off. Amazon Prime Video has the rights to 20 matches this season.

The Sports Monthly plan gets you all Premier League matches, as well as games in Ligue 1, Serie A and the Coppa Italia, plus 70 channels including BeINSports and MLB Network. It costs $29.99/month. 

If you're willing to fork out a larger sum all at once, a Sports Quarterly plan costs CAN$59.97, which means you'll pay $19.99 per month. However, for the best value you'll want a Sports Annual plan which costs CAN$225 (that's CAN$18.75 per month)

Canadians stuck abroad who still want their low-price alternative can use a VPN such as NordVPN to make your streaming device believe it's back home in Canada.
