Aston Villa v Fulham live stream, Sky Sports, Sunday 4 April, 4.30pm BST

Fulham will be looking to boost their Premier League survival hopes when they take on Aston Villa on Sunday.

Scott Parker’s side are two points adrift of safety going into the weekend, as they attempt to secure another season of top-flight football. A five-game unbeaten run in February saw Fulham close the gap separating them from the teams above them, but they have lost three of their last four encounters and still have plenty of work to do in their remaining eight games. 

Before their match against Villa gets under way, Fulham will be desperately hoping that Tottenham do them a favour against Newcastle.

Dean Smith’s side have also struggled in recent weeks, and they are now outsiders in the race for the European qualification spots. A failure to win any of their last four games has seen Villa slip to 10th in the table, but the probable return of Jack Grealish for Sunday’s clash should make them a more dangerous proposition.

This has still been an excellent season for Villa, who only secured survival on the final day of last term. Even if the Europa League is ultimately beyond them, Smith will hope for a strong end to the campaign.

Grealish looks set to start for Villa after a spell on the treatment table, and Kortney Hause is also back in training. Wesley Moraes is a long-term absentee but had already been replaced as Villa’s first-choice No.9 by Ollie Watkins, who made his England debut during the recent international break.

Fulham will have to make do without Tom Cariney and Marek Rodak, but Parker is hopeful that Bobby Cordova-Reid will be fit to feature. Josh Maja looks set to get the nod up top ahead of Aleksandar Mitrovic, as Fulham seek to avenge the 3-0 defeat Villa inflicted on them in September.

Kick-off is at 4.30pm BST and the game is being shown on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League in the UK. See below for watching details where you are.

Use a VPN to watch an Aston Villa v Fulham live stream from outside your country

If you’re on holiday or just simply out of the country, your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows exactly where you are from your IP address. Your access to the game will be automatically blocked, which is annoying if you’ve paid a subscription fee and don't want to use an illegal, buffering stream that makes you miss another Jose Mourinho tantrum. And that's where we recommend ExpressVPN (more on which below). 

All you need to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get beyond such aggravations (assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs). A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, meaning suppliers can’t work out where you are and what you’re doing. The info going to and from is entirely encrypted.

There are plenty of options out there, including: 

ExpressVPN

ExpressVPN including a 30-day, money-back guarantee

FourFourTwo’s brainy office mates TechRadar love its super speedy connections, trustworthy security and the fact it works with Android, Apple, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, PS4 and loads more. You also get a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support and it's currently available for a knockdown price. Go get it!
