Russel Martin’s possession-based side may have shown glimpses of promise this season but with just one point from seven games, the pressure is already mounting. They were positives to take from the 3-1 loss to Arsenal last time out, with young midfielder Tyler Dibling particularly impressive, but they look all too fragile at the back. 

It’s also been a tough start to life back in the top flight for Leicester but morale will be high after securing a first league win of the season against Bournemouth. It may not have been the best performance from the Foxes but gaining all three points was all that mattered. Now they’ll be confident of making it two wins in two against a side they beat 4-1 and 5-1 last season.

Watch Southampton vs Leicester City from anywhere

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

You can still watch Southampton vs Leicester City 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, making it 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 Southampton vs Leicester City and watch the game.

Unfortunately, there will be no Southampton vs Leicester City 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.
