The pick of this weekend’s opening fixtures of the 2023-24 Premier League season sees Chelsea host Liverpool in a battle of the giants clash at Stamford Bridge.
The match sees former Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino take charge of the Blues in the league for the first time, with a much-overhauled side set to take to the field on Sunday from the one which endured such a miserable campaign last term.
Thirteen players have left, while five signings have arrived at Stamford Bridge, including new £32million striker Nicolas Jackson.
There’s also been plenty of upheaval at Liverpool during the summer break, with inspirational skipper Jordan Henderson and the experienced Fabinho having left the club, while Dominik Szoboszlai and Alexis Mac Allister are two exciting new additions to the Red first team that are both likely to start here.
Sunday’s game looks set to have an added edge after it emerged on Friday that Chelsea had somehow managed to hijack Liverpool’s almost completed move for highly-rated Brighton midfielder Moises Caicedo.
Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch all of the action live wherever you are in the world.
New Chelsea Head Coach Mauricio Pochettino will be expected to have the Blues competing for a top four place this season, following the London club’s disappointing 12th place finish in the Premier League last term.
Chelsea host Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, Aug. 13. Kickoff is set for 4:30 p.m. BST (11:30 a.m. ET, 8:30 p.m PT).
If you find yourself unable to view the game locally, you may need a different way to watch the game — 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. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, non-blackout area. 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.
