How to Watch Every Premier League Game in the UK

We’ve found the best websites (and apps) to live stream the Premier League, by hand-testing 70 legal EPL streaming websites as well as the most popular free live streams.

Only a few websites successfully matched our criteria: they are 100% legal, provide live games in HD quality, deliver an excellent and user experience without buffering, and broadcast every single Premier League game.

In the table below, you can compare popular Premier League streaming websites side-by-side:

Streaming Site	Do We Recommend?	IP Address Location	Commentary Language	Game Coverage	Monthly Price	Video Resolution	Legal Status

1. Setanta Sports

The best Premier League streaming site, with every game available in Full HD for roughly £2.35 a month.

Pros	Cons
Broadcasts every Premier League game in HD	No English commentary
Significantly cheaper than alternatives	Doesn’t have an app for Firestick
Mobile app is available in every country	Limited VPN compatibility
Supports any country’s payment card
Doesn’t check for access to a local phone number
Supports AirPlay for Apple TV & Roku compatibility

Based on our extensive research, Setanta Sports is by far the best website to watch all 380 Premier League games. The service uniquely combines comprehensive coverage, ease of access, and low pricing.

Setanta Sports is over 90% cheaper than Sky Sports and TNT Sports despite showing over three times as many games as both services.

Our streaming experience with Setanta Sports was excellent, as we didn’t experience any buffering issues and all games streamed in HD. Videos also loaded quickly and we could easily find the game by clicking the Premier League option from the home screen.

The platform accepts any payment card and its app is available worldwide. There’s no need to create a separate app store account or rely on third-party payment service, as is the case with alternatives like Peacock and DAZN.

One major downside is that Setanta Sports does not have English commentary and will instead default to Ukrainian.

However, if you select English as the language option, Setanta Sports will instead disable commentary altogether and only broadcast the stadium noise. We found this preferable to listening to commentary in an unfamiliar language, like with Spanish on DAZN.

You will need a Ukraine IP address to access Setanta and the service imposes strict VPN blocks. Only NordVPN worked in our tests, so your choice of options is limited.

2. Peacock

Cheap and user-friendly Premier League streaming website for 3pm kick-offs.

Pros	Cons
Superb English commentary and punditry	Only shows 63% of EPL games
Cheaper than many alternatives	US payment details required
Sleek and intuitive interface	Shows pre-roll ads
Apps for Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV & Android TV	Requires a credit card to subscribe outside the US

Peacock is an excellent US-based streaming service from NBC. You can use it to live stream Premier League matches in 1080p resolution at 60fps. It provides English commentary and analysis by recognisable experts, like Lee Dixon and Peter Drury.

Peacock has the best interface of any Premier League streaming website we tested. The tile interface is well-designed and feels premium. You can quickly access the live stream of the game by clicking it under the ‘Peacock Picks’ heading.

That said, you will have to watch around 30 seconds of pre-roll ads unless you subscribe to Peacock Premium, which is twice as expensive at around £9.50 per month.

Unlike the other streaming services in this list, Peacock doesn’t cover every single Premier League game. But, we did find it broadcasts every 3pm match, making it an excellent choice if you just want to watch the games that aren’t on Sky, TNT, or Amazon Prime Video.

Sadly, getting access to Peacock without a credit card requires a US payment method. You can get one by creating a US Apple or Google account and purchasing a US app store gift card. However, our research found a workaround: you can subscribe to Peacock via its website using a credit card issued from any region.

3. TOD

Easy-to-use EPL streaming site with English language commentary.

Pros	Cons
English language commentary	Poor streaming quality
Excellent punditry team	Not compatible with Fire TV
Shows every EPL match	Comparatively expensive
Accepts payment from any country	Only accessible with one VPN service
Modern & user-friendly interface

TOD is an online-only service from beIN Sports, a highly reputable live sport broadcaster. It covers all 380 Premier League matches and, unlike Setanta Sports, TOD provides excellent English commentary and punditry.

There’s analysis of every match provided by notable pundits, like Richard Keys and Nigel De Jong. Though the stream defaults to Arabic, access to the English feed can be accessed by clicking on the music note icon in the bottom-right and selecting ‘Audio Track 2’.

However, TOD falls far short of Setanta Sports because of its poor streaming quality. All our testers reported that the video stream took over 50 seconds to load and the video quality was extremely poor.

Our subsequent technical analysis found that while TOD’s maximum resolution is 720p, it often reverted to a poor 360p. This happened even though our download speed, while connected to Windscribe’s UAE server, far exceeded the 5Mbps needed for HD video.

Due to its unsatisfactory user experience, we recommend that you only use TOD if you want to access every Premier League match, not just 3pm kick-offs, with English commentary and punditry. Otherwise, Setanta Sports or Peacock are better options.

4. Skylink

Broadcasts every game in Full HD and 60 FPS for a low price.

Pros	Cons
Full coverage of every Premier League match	Incompatible with many VPN services
1080p video at 60FPS	App for Fire TV and iOS requires a Czech app store account
Doesn’t require a local phone number	No English commentary
Supports any country’s payment card	Almost four times as expensive as Setanta Sports
Android app is available in every country

Skylink is an excellent option for those who prioritize broadcast quality and value for money. However, the streaming site is extremely effective at detecting and blocking VPNs, and it requires a change in your account region to download on streaming devices.

Of the services that show every game, Skylink is the only one that doesn’t require ask for a local phone number or payment details. Though Setanta Sports doesn’t verify it, we easily created an account with Skylink from the UK without having to perform any workarounds.

The streaming service has the rights for every Premier League game and it costs just £10.30 per month, rising slightly to £13.80 after the first 3 months.

The video quality of live matches was superb and far superior to the free streaming sites we used, that would regularly buffer or drop out during peak demand. Skylink broadcasts every game in Full HD and in 60FPS, providing a far more premium experience than its price would suggest.

One of the biggest frustrations is that there’s only Czech language commentary. To get around this, we synchronized live English radio commentary on a separate device, though it’s less convenient than integrated English audio tracks available on services like Peacock and Fubo.

5. DAZN Spain

Sports-focused streaming service with Spanish commentary.

Pros	Cons
Broadcasts every Premier League match	Apps for all devices, including Fire TV & Apple TV
Excellent punditry team	Not compatible with Fire TV
Shows every EPL match	Comparatively expensive
Accepts payment from any country	Only accessible with one VPN service
Modern & user-friendly interface

DAZN is a well-designed streaming website that specializes in live sports coverage. However, DAZN didn’t come close to matching the other Premier League websites in our usage.

Though both services broadcast every Premier League game, DAZN costs over £23.00 per month more than Setanta Sports. Plus, even with the additional cost, DAZN streams in a lower resolution of 720p instead of 1080p.

Plus, to watch the Premier League on DAZN, you will need a Spanish DAZN account. If your account is registered elsewhere, like the UK, you will see a padlock icon and it will not let you stream the content. You will have to purchase a gift card and create a new account to work around this.

As EPL matches are only available on the Spanish library of DAZN, every game only has Spanish commentary and punditry. Unlike TOD, there’s no option to select a separate audio track and, unlike Setanta Sports, there’s no way to mute it to only hear the stadium noise.

That said, we did like DAZN’s MultiView feature and wish it was available everywhere. When using the streaming service with multiple games happening simultaneously, like on Saturday at 3PM, we could display up to four games at once, allowing us to keep up with events from every game.

6. Fubo Canada

Hard-to-access Premier League content platform with 4K live streams.

Pros	Cons
Broadcasts every Premier League match	Apps for all devices, including Fire TV & Apple TV
Excellent punditry team	Not compatible with Fire TV
Shows every EPL match	Comparatively expensive
Accepts payment from any country	Only accessible with one VPN service
Modern & user-friendly interface

Fubo Canada is a superb Premier League that uniquely covers three Premier League games every matchweek in 4K. On every device we used, the video feed looked noticeably better than all other streaming sites, including Setanta and Peacock that stream in Full HD.

However, Fubo Canada features low down in our shortlist as it’s extremely difficult to access. Unless you have a Canadian payment method, or know someone that does, you will not be able to use the service.

We tried subscribing to the service using app store gift cards, international credit cards, and third party payment services and Fubo blocked the payment every time. We only successfully subscribed when using a debit card issued in Canada.

Once accessed, the service delivers an excellent user experience, with English commentary and analysis provided by experts like Michael Owen and Owen Hargreaves.

The one annoyance is that the service doesn’t contain any full match replays. Frustratingly, you’ll have to remember each time to record the match before it starts.

After testing 61 VPNs with the five best Premier League streaming websites, 59 VPNs failed to meet or surpass our testing criteria.

As you can see in the screenshot below, even ExpressVPN, usually a reliable option for streaming, was detected and blocked by Setanta Sports.

Here are popular VPNs we tested, and the reason we don’t recommend them for streaming the Premier League:

VPN Service	Reason for Exclusion
CyberGhost	Doesn’t work with Setanta Sports, TOD, DAZN Spain & Fubo Canada No router app Smart DNS doesn’t work with Premier League streaming sites Comparatively slow international speeds
ExpressVPN	Doesn’t work with Setanta Sports, TOD & Fubo Canada Smart DNS doesn’t work with Premier League streaming sites
IPVanish	Doesn’t work with any Premier League streaming website No router app No Smart DNS feature Unintuitive app design
PrivadoVPN Free	Doesn’t work with Setanta Sports, TOD, DAZN Spain & Fubo Canada No browser extensions No router app No Smart DNS feature No live chat customer support
Private Internet Access	Doesn’t work with Setanta Sports, TOD, DAZN Spain & Fubo Canada No router app Smart DNS doesn’t work with Premier League streaming sites
Proton VPN Free	Doesn’t work with Setanta Sports, TOD, DAZN Spain & Fubo Canada No router app No Smart DNS feature
Surfshark	Doesn’t work with Setanta Sports, TOD & DAZN Spain No router app Smart DNS doesn’t work with Premier League streaming sites

Here are the two main reasons why you may need a VPN to live stream Premier League matches:

Watch Blackout Premier League Games

As we explained in the previous section, 180 Premier League matches each season aren’t shown on UK TV channels. To watch all of them, you’ll have to use a streaming site from another country that has the rights to every game.

However, every legitimate English Premier League streaming site is geo-blocked. You’ll need an IP address from a particular region to access them.

With a VPN, you can route your internet connection through a proxy server in another country and appear as if you’re accessing the site from there. For example, you can change your IP address to a Ukrainian one to access Setanta Sports, which broadcasts every Premier League match, including 3pm kick-offs.

Watch Games for Cheaper

As demand for Premier League matches is highest in the UK, the Premier League can charge broadcasters a higher price to show games there.

For example, we worked out that NBC pays just under £1 million per game in the US, while Sky pays over £13 million per game in the UK.

As a result, Sky charges a much higher subscription cost to make a profit. Peacock (NBC) costs just £6.10 a month, whereas Sky Sports is substantially more at approximately £35.00.

Additionally, streaming services set their prices according to the country where it’s available. As average income in the UK is high compared to Ukraine, you end up paying more for a UK service, like Sky Sports, than you do for a Ukrainian one, like Setanta Sports.

You can see how much money you can save by using a legitimate Premier League streaming website in the chart below. We’ve combined the price of Setanta Sports and a NordVPN subscription as you’ll need to connect to a VPN server in order to access it.

Our research uncovered that many popular Premier League live stream sites host unlicensed content, making it illegal to access them. They should not be used under any circumstances.

All these websites also contain links to unmoderated third party websites, some of which contain malware that could infect your device. Compared to legal alternatives, they offer a far worse user experience, containing intrusive ads, poor interface design, and potential security risks.

Hesgoal

Hesgoal is one of the most popular football streaming websites, hosting live matches from various leagues, including the Premier League.

However, Hesgoal is an unlicensed broadcaster and all games are hosted on the service illegally. It’s against the law to use the website and you should not do so under any circumstances.

Moreover, Hesgoal disappoints with the worst user experience of any other website we used. It displays all types of adverts, including pop-up, on-page banners, and pre-roll video ads, and it doesn’t allow you to access the website until you disable your ad blocker.

Additionally, during testing, we often encountered ‘stream is offline’ errors, hindering the viewing experience.

On the whole, we strongly advise against using Hesgoal. While free, for just £2.35 a month you can access Setanta Sports, a legal, ad-free service offering stable video streams without worrying about buffering or lag.

EPLsite

EPLsite is an unofficial streaming website that focuses on Premier League matches. Though filled with on-page ads, unlike Hesgoal, it’s compatible with ad-blockers.

Unlike other free Premier League streaming sites, EPLsite also includes a lot of additional content, like a news aggregator and post-match highlights. These are legal to access and makes EPLsite a suitable option if you don’t want to watch live games.

The user experience of EPLsite surpasses other unofficial sites, featuring an intuitive interface and the option to change video resolution. However, the unmoderated live comment section, which takes up around 25% of the window space, worsens the experience. To hide it, you’ll have to open the match in full screen.

Although EPLsite is nicer to use than Hesgoal, none of its live streams are legal to watch. You should avoid using it for legal reasons.

TOTALSPORTEK

TOTALSPORTEK is an illegitimate streaming website that broadcasts all live sporting events, including the Premier League. Though easy-to-use and well-designed, its interface is directly copied from LiveScore, a reputable website that offers latest football results.

Worryingly, we found that TOTALSPORTEK contains malware, which we detected using VirusTotal’s URL scanner. As a result, using the website could potentially infect your device and lead to data theft.

On top of this, when clicking to play videos on TOTALSPORTEK, it automatically opens a tab to a third-party website. This behavior is concerning as it could potentially lead to malicious and unmoderated websites, which might be used to deceive you.

Overall, TOTALSPORTEK is the worst website we used in our testing. It has all the indicators of a malicious website and is simply unsafe to use.

Some Premier League games are not on UK TV channels for two reasons: to protect attendance in the lower leagues and to prevent market saturation.

Protecting Lower League Attendance

The 3pm blackout rule prevents any Premier League, Football League or FA cup match from being televised in the UK between 2:45pm and 5:15pm on a Saturday.

As lower league games kick off at 3pm on Saturdays, the blackout is intended to encourage fans to attend their local team’s match in person rather than watching Premier League football on TV.

Preventing Market Saturation

To maintain the appeal and high price for Premier League matches, the league only sells broadcasting rights for around half of its games. As a result, even some games that aren’t subject to the 3pm blackout, like those in midweek or Sunday afternoon, aren’t shown on UK TV.

Richard Scudamore, the league’s former chief executive, intended to keep the supply of televised games relatively low and demand high. As a result, the Premier League could ensure a competitive market, allowing it to charge higher prices for broadcasting rights to Sky, TNT, and Amazon.
