The 2026-27 Premier League season has arrived, and it is Arsenal who start the campaign as the team to beat after winning their first league title in 22 years. The Gunners were deserving champions but will face a tough challenge to retain their crown from the likes of Manchester City, Liverpool and Chelsea (all of which have new managers at the helm).
Meanwhile, the trio of newcomers face a huge battle to avoid dropping straight back down to the EFL Championship. Coventry were electrifying last season under Frank Lampard and may be the best placed to avoid relegation, but it could be a long season for supporters of Ipswich and Hull.
No matter who you support, you’ll want to know how you can watch all of the EPL action this season. And you’re in the right place as we’re here to show you how you can watch live streams of every single Premier League game. And don't worry if you're abroad right now — because you can watch it all from anywhere with a VPN.
Premier League: Gameweek 1 preview

How to watch Premier League live streams with a VPN
If you're not in your home country during the Premier League 26-27 season and are unable to live stream a game from wherever you are, you can still tune in via a virtual private network, or VPN. A VPN makes it appear that you're surfing the web from your home location — meaning that you can access the streaming services you already pay for. It's all totally legal and easy to do.
We've tested many different VPN services and our favorite is NordVPN; it offers superb speeds, excellent customer service and comprehensive security features, so you can use it with complete peace of mind. But you've got other VPN options too, so check out our full list of the best VPN services.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're away in the U.K. and want to view your usual U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to NBC, Peacock or another service and watch the game.
