Premier League Football: Ipswich vs. Live Stream Aston Villa, anywhere
Aston Villa will be looking for a sixth successive win in all competitions today as they travel to take on newly promoted Ipswich in this EPL match.
With a big Champions League match against Bayern Munich in midweek, and John McGinn, Matty Cash and Jaden Philogene all injured, Villa boss Unai Emery is likely to field an unknown, rotating starting line-up for today’s match.
The hosts remain winless but have endured an incredibly difficult opening series, including title contenders Man City and Liverpool. We’re up against Fulham, Brighton and Southampton, as those games suggest Kieran McKenna’s side may have enough left to avoid falling back into the Championship.
Ipswich will take on Aston Villa at Portman Road on Sunday, September 29, with kick-off in advance 2pm BST local time, making it a 9am ET or 6am PT starting in the US and Canada, and a 11pm AEST kick-off in Australia.

How to watch the 2024/25 Premier League season from anywhere with a VPN
If you find that you can’t watch EPL matches locally, you may need another way to watch the games – that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to prevent your ISP from throttling your speed on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a good idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN you can virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to access the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPN, make it very easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in every country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming. You’ll want to make sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: even if VPNs are legal, the streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing properly applied blackout restrictions.

Quick tips for streaming the Premier League with a VPN
- With four variables at play (your ISP, browser, video streaming provider, and VPN), your experiences and success streaming EPL matches may vary.
- If you don’t see the location you want as the default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “search for city or country” option.
- If you’re having trouble downloading the game after turning on your VPN and setting it to the correct viewing area, you can try two things to quickly resolve this. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is one in the correct display area. If not, you may need to change the physical address registered to your account. Second, some smart TVs (like Roku) don’t have VPN apps that you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll need to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you use (like your phone) so that every device on the Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
- All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases, with Smart TV services, after you install a cable network’s sports app, you may be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your registered email address for your Smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help as both devices appear to be in the right location.
- And don’t forget that browsers can often give away location despite using a VPN, so make sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
