After an eventful transfer deadline day, it's back to on-field business for Chelsea on Sunday as they host Crystal Palace in this London derby clash.
The Blues brought in Man United and England star Jadon Sancho, while a handful of players, including Raheem Sterling, headed out of Stamford Bridge as the transfer window closed on Friday.
Among those players departing west London was Trevoh Chalobah, who made a loan switch to Chelsea's opponents today. League rules prevent the 25-year-old from facing his parent club today, but he boosts an Eagles back line that has also managed to retain the services of key man Marc Guéhi, despite strong interest from Newcastle.
With two losses in a row to London rivals following EPL defeats against Brentford and West Ham, they now face another testing capital clash against a Chelsea team that ran riot away against Wolves last weekend with a hot-tempered 6-2 win.
Chelsea take on Crystal Palace on Sunday, Sept. 1, at Stamford Bridge, with kickoff set for 1:30 p.m. BST local time, making it a 8:30 a.m. ET or 7:30 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 10:30 p.m. AEST kickoff in Australia.
Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game as it happens, wherever you are in the world.

Marc Atkins/Getty ImagesSunday's Chelsea vs. Crystal Palace match is streaming on Peacock, which is the best option for US soccer fans looking to watch the EPL this season. The majority of fixtures are set be shown exclusively live on the streaming service. You'll need a Peacock Premium or Premium Plus account to catch games live, including this one.
If you find yourself unable to view EPL matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the games -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.
This early afternoon match has not been selected to be shown live by any UK broadcaster.
That also means that if you're in the UK traveling for pleasure or for work, you're unlikely to be able to watch the game like you normally would at home, thanks to geo-blocking.
There's one option to get around this, however. By using a VPN, as explained above, you can set your location to a country where the match is being broadcast and go from there.
