Brighton are looking to build upon a midweek victory over Brentford as they welcome Burnley to the AMEX Stadium. With 7th placed Newcastle not due to play until Sunday (Dec. 10), three points would see the Seagulls move further up the table and inch closer to a top-five spot which is surely their primary objective for the season. However, Brighton have been frustratingly inconsistent so far this year, and have a bad habit of following up wins with a lackluster performance.  

Meanwhile, Burnley are still struggling to pull themselves out of the relegation zone, but with just two wins and a draw to their name across 15 games, it’s been a bruising return to the Premier League under Vincent Kompany. A trip to the South Coast to face a strong Brighton side isn’t an easy task for a side that doesn’t quite look comfortable at this level. 

Here's how they line up: 

Brighton: Verbruggen, Milner, Van Hecke, Dunk, Gross, Baleba, Dahoud, Adingra, Lallana, Ferguson, Joao Pedro. 

Burnley: Trafford, Vitinho, O’Shea, Beyer, Taylor, Gudmundsson, Berge, Brownhill, Odobert, Rodriguez, Amdouni. 

Both teams could do with taking all the points here, but for very different reasons, so make sure you catch a Brighton vs Burnley live stream to see how this one plays out, and we’ve all the details you need to watch online from anywhere down below.

The Brighton vs Burnley live stream will be shown on many different channels across the world, but what if you're not in your home country and want to watch it on your usual service?

The answer is to use a VPN, or virtual private network. A VPN will let you tune into your home coverage from wherever you are — meaning that if you're abroad, you can use one of the best VPN services to watch the games live as if you were in your lounge.

Our favorite right now is ExpressVPN, thanks to its combination of superb speed, great customer service and excellent device support. It also offers a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you could check it out without having to sign up long-term.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.
