The 2025/26 Premier League is finally here — and it’s shaping up to be one of the most hotly anticipated campaigns in years. Chelsea, Arsenal, Man City and Liverpool are all being tipped as potential title contenders, while eyes will also be firmly set on Newcastle, Man United and Tottenham Hotspur after eventful summers.
As always, there’s no shortage of ways to watch the Premier League — but free streams are hard to come by.
Fortunately, US fans have plenty of cord-cutting options with free trial periods, and we’ll guide you through the best ones to take advantage of on opening weekend.
How to watch Premier League free trials from anywhere
Although free trials are available to watch the Premier League, they’re only readily available in the US.
Soccer lovers traveling or working outside the US will need to use a VPN to access the free trials available to them.
There are lots of VPN’s but NordVPN is our pick to unblock your Premier League streams like a pro…
It’s really easy to use a VPN to watch Premier League action on cord-cutting services.
