Crystal Palace vs West Ham live stream: How to watch Premier League game online and on TV, team news

The Crystal Palace vs West Ham live stream comes from Selhurst Park today, which is hoping that talk of Oliver Glasner's bubble bursting proves wide of the mark — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

Ending last season with six thumping wins from seven has raised expectations considerably, but a losing start and the uncertainty over Marc Guehi have compounded the departures of Michael Olise and Joachim Andersen, and brought the Eagles back down to Earth with a bump. 

They looked distinctly leggy throughout their 2-1 defeat against Brentford last weekend, and Eberechi Eze's eagerness to fill the Olise-shaped hole means he often held onto the ball instead of playing in Adam Wharton and Jean-Philippe Mateta.

There were teething problems for West Ham too, as the Julen Lopetegui era finally got off the ground. They struggled to create anything of note in going 2-1 down to Aston Villa, though the Spaniard has numerous mercurial talents at his disposal, most notably Mohammed Kudus and Lucas Paqueta. It was surprising to see Niclas Fullkrug have to settle for a place on the bench, and Michail Antonio did little to strengthen his starting credentials. 

Line-ups:

Crystal Palace team: Henderson, Richards, Riad, Guehi, Munoz, Wharton, Lerma, Mitchell, Edouard, Eze, Mateta

West Ham team: Areola, Coufal, Mavropanos, Kilman, Emerson, Rodriguez, Bowen, Soucek, Paqueta, Kudus, Antonio

Watch Crystal Palace vs West Ham from anywhere

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

You can still watch Crystal Palace vs West Ham 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 Crystal Palace vs West Ham and watch the game.

Soccer fans in the U.S. can watch a Crystal Palace vs West Ham 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 Crystal Palace vs West Ham live stream by using a VPN, such as NordVPN.

Can you watch Crystal Palace vs West Ham in the U.K.?

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

Americans 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 games, including every Saturday lunchtime kick-off. Amazon Prime Video has the rights to 20 matches this season.

Canadians can watch the Crystal Palace vs West Ham live stream on Fubo, the home of Premier League soccer in Canada. 

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 CA$29.99/month. 

If you're willing to fork out a larger sum all at once, a Sports Quarterly plan costs CA$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 CA$225 (that's CA$18.75 per month)

Canadians stuck abroad who still want their low-price alternative can use a VPN such as NordVPN to tap into their usual stream.
