How to watch Premier League 2026/27: Free Streams & TV Channels — Matchday 1 | Daily Reports Online
Watch Premier League 2026/27 live streams as Arsenal begin the season as champions for the first time in 22 years, having ended their drought last term. The Gunners are aiming to become the first club not called Manchester City to retain the title since 2009, but several sides will believe they can knock them off their perch.
Three of the expected front-runners are under new management, with Enzo Maresca tasked with following Pep Guardiola at Manchester City, Andoni Iraola replacing Arne Slot at Liverpool and Xabi Alonso becoming the latest in a long line of head coaches at Chelsea. The two other clubs in the ‘Big Six’ are led by bosses who enjoyed strong finishes to last season, albeit at different ends of the table, with Michael Carrick getting the Manchester United job full-time and Roberto De Zerbi aiming to kick on from his successful survival mission at Tottenham Hotspur.
Aston Villa look strong again under Unai Emery after winning the Europa League last term, but Newcastle United have lost several key players and long-serving manager Eddie Howe, with Matthias Jaissle coming in. Bournemouth, Brighton and Brentford will aim to continue punching above their weight, as the Cherries embark on their first-ever European campaign under new boss Marco Rose, who replaced Iraola. Elsewhere, Crystal Palace hired former Lens manager Pierre Sage after Oliver Glasner left for Nottingham Forest, while Álvaro Arbeloa has swapped Real Madrid for Fulham.
Everton will hope to kick on from their first campaign at Hill Dickinson Stadium, while there is a buzz at Sunderland after they qualified for Europe in their first season back in the top flight. Leeds United’s mission will be to stay well clear of the relegation zone, which could be a tall order for promoted trio Coventry City, Ipswich Town and Hull City.
It is set up to be a cracking season – here’s where to watch Premier League 2026/27 live streams online from anywhere.

Use a VPN to watch any Premier League 2026/27 stream
Chances are you’ll find yourself overseas when some Premier League 2026/27 games are taking place, but does that mean you have to miss the action? No, it doesn’t… a VPN will ensure you get your coverage from anywhere.
Premier League live streams are geo-restricted on all streaming services, but a VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a neat way around this, unpicking the geo-locks by altering your device’s digital location. It’s great for accessing your usual streaming services while on the move, and it does wonders for your internet security, too.
We rate NordVPN as the best VPN — more details below.
