Aston Villa v West Ham live stream: how to watch the Premier League wherever you are in the world
Watch an Aston Villa v West Ham live stream, as two of the season's surprise packages clash in Birmingham
Aston Villa v West Ham live stream, BT Sport, Wednesday 3 February, 8.15pm GMT
Two of the Premier League’s surprise packages go head-to-head on Wednesday when Aston Villa host Champions League-chasing West Ham.
The Hammers’ four-match winning run was ended in defeat to Liverpool on Sunday, but they remain in fifth place and four points outside the top four.
A European push from David Moyes’ men was unexpected at the start of the season, much like Aston Villa, who remain firmly in contention.
Dean Smith’s side beat Southampton on Saturday and are currently ninth, but they are just three points behind West Ham with two games in hand.

Their last meeting in November ended in a 2-1 win for the Hammers at the London Stadium, with Angelo Ogbonna and Jarrod Bowen goals proving decisive.
The London side’s recent record in this fixture has been strong, as they are unbeaten in five games against Villa, winning two and drawing three.
But Villa are on a good run of home form, having won two and drawn one in their last three games without conceding a goal.
Kick-off is at 8.15pm GMT and the game is being shown on BT Sport 2 in the UK. See below for watching details where you are.

Use a VPN to watch an Aston Villa v West Ham 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 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!
NordVPN with quality mobile and desktop apps
A cheaper option and almost ExpressVPN's equal when it comes to quality, too. A single subscription covers six connections, so you can use it on mobile, laptop, streaming devices and more, all at the same time.
Surfshark offers a great VPN at a fraction of the price
It's clear to see why Surfshark is top of TechRadar's best cheap VPN table – it combines an excellent product with bargain pricing, starting at £2/$2.50 a month!
