Subscription services Sky Sports and BT Sport hold the keys to the Premier League kingdom once again this season, with Sky having the rights to the lion's share of 2020/21 fixtures and set to air 128 matches. BT Sport will broadcast 52 games, while Amazon Prime will exclusively stream 20 contests. 

The BBC gets the odd bit of backwash, like the Villa vs Palace game which is 100% FREE to watch on iPlayer in the UK this Boxing Day, though it's mainly of note as the place for highlights with its Match of the Day show.

How to watch the Premier League on Sky:

To watch the Premier League on Sky, you can either sign up for Sky Sports as part of one of its TV packages and get slick streaming access via its Sky Go apps. Or if the full Sky contract isn't for you, then you could check out its streaming-only Now TV offerings instead.

How to watch the Premier League on BT and save:

BT Sport can be obtained either directly through BT as part of one of its many TV bundles - or added to Sky and Virgin packages if they're your provider.

Alternatively, BT now offers a streaming-only BT Sport option in the form of the £25 BT Sport Monthly Pass.

If you find yourself outside the UK and want to watch the Premier League coverage you pay for at home, don't worry about geo-blockers on your account – simply grab a 100% risk-free ExpressVPN trial for 30 days and follow the instructions above to live stream the action. 

NBC is the official US broadcaster for the 2020/21 Premier League season and its shows every match between linear TV coverage - usually NBCSN or NBC - and new streaming service, Peacock.

You'll need to sign up for the Peacock Premium tier, but it costs just $4.99 a month, offers a FREE 7-day trial, and boasts 175 exclusive matches this season in addition to loads of other great content.

Best of all, signing up for Peacock Premium is easy - it only takes a few seconds and some basic details to get up and running, even accepting internationally recognized payment platform PayPal for added convenience.

Peacock Premium replaces NBC Sports Gold as NBC's Premier League streaming option for the new season, while games that are aired on linear TV can also be watched affordably without cable - courtesy of great value over-the-top streaming service Sling. NBCSN comes as part of its $30 a month Sling Blue package - try a FREE trial for a limited time to see if it's right for you - while NBC's flagship terrestrial channel is available in a number of major US metropolitan markets.

If you subscribe to this or any other streaming service and find yourself unable to access it because yo're out of the country, remember that you can use a VPN to tune into your usual coverage just like you would at home. Of the many options, we rate ExpressVPN as the best of the best.

Streaming service DAZN is the sole rights holder for live Premier League matches this season in Canada and shows every single match.

If you decide to keep DAZN, you'll pay $20-a-month or an annual subscription of $150 for all 380 games plus Champions and Europa League action, every NFL game, and much more.

DAZN is a great option for anyone wanting to watch the Premier League from Canada. It's a slick service with comprehensive Premier League coverage and a range of handy apps for iOS and Android mobile devices as well as Amazon Fire TV, Android TV, Chromecast, Apple TV, and most modern Smart TVs.

Anyone who isn't already signed up to the Optus telecommunications network can also take advantage of monthly subscriptions to Optus Sport and watch all the games live. The service is available for AUS$15 per month and can be accessed via Google Play or the App Store.

If you're outside Australia and want to tune in to Optus Sport, you can use one of the best VPNs and watch the coverage from another nation.

Streaming service Spark Sport has the rights to show the EPL in New Zealand again for the 2020/21 season and it offers a 1-month free trial so you can check it out for yourself.
