The second match of this year’s Premier League Summer Series sees Man United and West Ham face off, with both sides set to field new signings as they look to move on from disappointing campaigns last term.
Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game as it happens, wherever you are in the world, and how to use a VPN if it’s not available where you are.
Having flirted with the wrong end of the EPL table last season, Ruben Amorim has made two major signings already during the summer break as he looks to shake up his squad, with Cameroon international Bryan Mbeumo and former Wolves player Matheus Cunha both expected to play in today’s game.
The Hammers are meanwhile set to hand a debut to Kyle Walker-Peters following the full back’s free transfer move from Southampton, while all eyes are set to be on midfielder Lucas Paqueta, amid reports that the Brazilian international is set to be cleared of spot-fixing charges following a long-running investigation.
Manchester United take on West Ham United on Saturday, July 26, at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, with kickoff set for 7 p.m. ET local time, 4 p.m. PT in the US. That makes it a 12 midnight BST start in the UK and a 9 a.m. AEST kickoff in Australia on Sunday morning.

How to watch the Premier League Summer Series 2025 from anywhere with a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the Summer Series action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming.
It encrypts your traffic and prevents 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 restricting VPN use to access 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, ensuring 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.

Quick tips for streaming the Summer Series using a VPN
- With four variables at play — your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming Summer Series matches may vary.
- If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the «search for city or country» option.
- If you’re having trouble getting the game after you’ve turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs — like Roku — don’t have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you’re using (like your phone) so that any device on its 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’ll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location.
- And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
