This week, from December 14-16, the Premier League returns with another round of fixtures, including the Manchester derby.
While UK viewers are limited to just 200 live games per season (shared between Sky Sports, TNT Sports and Amazon Prime), all 380 matches are broadcast in the US, Australia and numerous other countries.
Don’t worry if you’re going to be overseas for any of the EPL match weeks, however, because you can use a VPN to watch your usual service as if you were back home. Find out more below.
Read on to find out how to watch Premier League live streams this weekend, wherever you are on planet Earth.

Use a VPN to watch from anywhere
If you’re overseas when the next round of Premier League fixtures kicks off, annoyingly your usual on-demand services won’t work. That’s because your IP address tells the broadcaster you’re in another country, and you’ll subsequently be blocked from tuning in – not ideal if you’ve already paid up for a subscription service you’re not able to use.
Thankfully there is another option that doesn’t involve resorting to one of those illegal feeds on Reddit. All you need is a VPN (Virtual Private Network), a handy piece of software which can make it look like your device is still back at home.
Assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, you can use a VPN to create a private connection between your device and choice and the internet, meaning the streamer can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is also entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there, but FourFourTwo’s brainy office mates TechRadar are big fans of NordVPN:
Watch Premier League live streams in the UK
EPL live streams in the UK are shared between three different broadcasters.
Sky Sports has broadcast English top flight matches since the Premier League’s inception in 1992, and it continues to air more live action than anyone else. The service will show 128 games over the course of the 2024/25 season. Sky Sports packages start at £22 per month, and – if contracts aren’t your thing – you can take out a Now Sports subscription. A Now day membership costs £14.99, while you can get a month of Now Sports action for £29.99.
TNT Sports (formerly BT Sport) and Discovery+ have rights to 52 live Premier League matches in 2024/25, including Saturday lunchtime kick-offs. A Discovery+ Premium subscription will set you back £30.99, but you also have the option to add TNT Sports to existing Sky, BT, EE or Virgin Media packages (prices vary).
Amazon Prime Video will show 20 Premier League matches this season, though they will all be across two match weeks in December – including all of the Boxing Day fixtures. You can sign up to Prime for £8.99 per month, and new subscribers can take advantage of a 30-day free trial.
Unfortunately for UK viewers, none of the Premier League matches kicking off at 3pm on Saturdays are available to watch live. That’s because of a long-standing "blackout" designed to protect attendances elsewhere in the football pyramid.
Premier League highlights are available on BBC One/BBCiPlayer’s Match of the Day and Match of the Day 2, broadcast on Saturday and Sunday nights, respectively.
Watch Premier League live streams in the US
NBC Universal has the rights to Premier League live streams in the US, with matches shared between the Peacock streaming service, the USA Network, and various other channels from the NBC stable, including NBC.
Peacock Premium will cost you $7.99 per month or $79.99 per year. If you want to kick the ads into the stands you can pay a bit extra for Peacock Premium Plus – prices are $13.99 per month or $139.99 per year.
USA Network is available through many cable plans in the States, but don’t worry if you’ve already cut the cord. The good news is that there are plenty of streaming options for cord cutters, including Sling. To watch Premier League soccer on the USA Network you’ll need the Sling Blue package, which costs $40 per month, though new subscribers get the first month half price. NBC is available in selected markets through most cable providers, but you'll need to check local listings for confirmation.
Watch Premier League live streams in Australia
Aussie soccer fans don’t need to go searching for their fix of EPL live streams because all 380 matches of the 24/25 Premier League season are available on Optus Sport. A subscription costs $24.99 AUD per month, but you can make a substantial saving if you sign up for the whole year – the $229 AUD annual subscription will save you more than five bucks a month.
