It’s a tricky away test for English Premier League leader Arsenal as Mikel Arteta’s team travels to the south coast to face a free-scoring Brighton on Saturday.

The Gunners are looking increasingly difficult to beat. Last weekend’s hard-fought 2-0 away win at Sunderland extended their perfect start to the season to seven victories from their seven games across all competitions.

They now take on a Brighton team that is also brimming with confidence. Fabian Hürzeler’s squad enters this key game in fifth place in the standings, having scored at least four goals in four of their last five games. The Seagulls will be further buoyed by a statement comeback away win over Manchester United in the Carabao Cup in midweek.

Brighton & Hove Albion takes on Arsenal on Saturday, Sept. 18, at the Amex Stadium, with kickoff set for 3 p.m. BST. That makes it a 10 a.m. ET or 7 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 12 a.m. AEST kickoff in Australia.

How to watch the Premier League 2026-27 from anywhere with a VPN

If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the EPL action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. 

Virtual private networks encrypt your traffic and prevent your internet service provider from throttling your speeds, and can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. 

However, some streaming services may have policies that restrict VPN use for accessing region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance. 

If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions to ensure you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN usage is crucial. 

Can I livestream Brighton vs. Arsenal in the UK?

No broadcaster in the UK has the rights to show this game live because of the traditional Saturday 3 p.m. kickoff blackout. This prohibits matches from being shown in the region at that time to protect attendances throughout the English football pyramid.   

That also means that if you’re traveling in the UK, you’re unlikely to be able to watch the game as you normally would at home due to geoblocking.
