How to watch Premier League 2026/27: TV Guide, Free Streams & Fixtures for Matchweek 3

The Premier League is back for 2026/27 and the new season could scarcely be dripping in more narrative.

FourFourTwo is here with all the broadcast information you need to watch every game live.

The 2026/27 Premier League continues into Matchweek 3 and we've got another Friday night game to kick things off as Ipswich host Liverpool at Portman Road. Andoni Iraola's Reds have limped to a pair of draws thus far and will be desperate to record a first victory of the campaign, while Gary O'Neil's side look to bounce back from last week's 5-2 gubbing against Manchester United. Bradley Barcola could make his Liverpool debut.
There are a bumper seven Saturday games, beginning with Newcastle vs Bournemouth in the lunchtime kick-off as Matthias Jaissle hopes to build on last week's victory over Tottenham. Manchester City host newly promoted Coventry in a clash of contrasting 100% records as one of five 15:00 kick-offs. Keith Andrews' unbeaten Brentford face Sunderland, while Leeds hope to continue their solid start against Brighton. Fulham vs Crystal Palace means one of the of the league's pointless sides will get on the board, and the enduringly hopeless Spurs – after signing yet more players on transfer deadline day – will hope to join them when they visit Nottingham Forest.
On Sunday, Everton welcome Manchester United to the Hill Dickinson Stadium for the David Moyes derby. The Toffees are unbeaten but suffered an ignominious deadline day in which they were rebuffed by Folarin Balogun – where's Donald Trump when you need him? – while United will look to Bruno Fernandes to bag again.
Finally, it's Arsenal vs Chelsea in what is potentially an early title six-pointer. Xabi Alonso's Blues have looked smooth in attack and suspect at the back, with a fully rested Cole Palmer like a new signing, while Gunners have also recorded back-to-back wins in their usual functional style. Could be a cracker.
In this guide, FourFourTwo break down all the Premier League viewing options globally, with all 380 games available in many countries. We'll have in-depth details on UK, USA, and Australia broadcaster, along with a full list of outlets internationally.

How to watch the Premier League from abroad
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.
NordVPN is the best, so say our good friends across the office at TechRadar.

How to watch the Premier League in the UK
In the UK, Premier League TV rights for the 2026/2027 season are shared between two broadcasters: Sky Sports, and TNT Sports. It's the second year of the EPL's latest £6.7bn deal that lasts until 2029. At least 267 of the 380 fixtures to be shown live.
► Sky Sports has broadcast English top flight matches since the Premier League’s inception in 1992, and it continues to air more live action than anyone else. The service will show at least 215 games in 2026/2027 across Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Sports Premier League, Sky Sports Football and Sky Sports+.
► TNT Sports and its streaming platform HBO Max have rights to 52 live Premier League matches in 2026/27, usually Saturday lunchtime kick-offs and a couple of midweek matchdays.
Why aren't all Premier League games live on TV in the UK?
Yep, the Saturday 3pm 'blackout' remains in place, which means that no games that kick off at that time can be broadcast live. This is enshrined in law and is designed to protect match-day attendances further down the football pyramid.
Like last season, though, any Premier League game not taking place at 3pm on a Saturday shown live on TV. Good news for fans of clubs on the Thursday-Sunday timetable of the Europa League/Conference League grind.
