Premier League Soccer: Livestream Southampton vs. Man United From Anywhere

The Premier League gets back under way today following the international break, with Man United travelling to Hampshire to take on Southampton in the weekend's first fixture. 

It's been a baptism of fire for Southampton on their return to the EPL, with the host side crashing to three defeats from their opening three fixtures. Boss Russell Martin has so far stuck to his principles of playing out from the back, but a more pragmatic approach may be needed today as the Saints go in search of some much needed points. 

United boss Erik ten Hag is once again under pressure after two consecutive defeats, the last of which was  a stinging loss to bitter rivals Liverpool. Red Devils fans will be hoping their side can continue their impressive run of losing just one of their last 30 Premier League games against newly-promoted sides. 

Southampton host Man United on Saturday, Sept. 14, at St. Mary's Stadium, with kickoff set for 12:30 p.m. BST local time, making it a 7:30 a.m. ET or 4:30 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada and at 9:30 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.

How to watch the Premier League 2024/25 season from anywhere with a VPN

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.

Quick tips for streaming the Premier League using a VPN 

With four variables at play -- your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN -- your experience and success when streaming EPL matches may vary. If you don't see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the "search for city or country" option. If you're having trouble getting the game after you've turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs -- like Roku -- don't have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you'll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you're using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location. All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network's sports app, you'll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location.  And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you're using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
