## The season is underway
The 2026/27 Premier League runs August to May. If the World Cup left a hole in your summer, this fills it, but US viewers need to watch the clock on kickoff times.
## A week late, thanks to the World Cup
Play started August 21, 2026 and ends May 30, 2027. That's 38 weeks: 33 weekends plus five midweek Match Rounds.
## Saturday's seven matches
September 12 stacked five games at 10 a.m. ET, including Liverpool vs. Fulham and Chelsea vs. Hull City. Spurs vs. Everton followed at 12:30, then Sunderland vs. Arsenal at 3 p.m.
## Sunday brings the derby
Coventry City vs. Brighton kicks off at 9 a.m. ET, then Manchester United vs. Manchester City at 11:30 a.m. ET. Monday closes the round with Leeds vs. Newcastle at 10 a.m.
## NBC holds the US rights
Every match runs through Peacock, USA Network, or NBC. Spanish-language coverage sits with Telemundo and Universo, so the channel you need decides the plan you buy.
## Peacock is the cheap door
Peacock Premium costs $10.99 a month and carries the matches NBC puts on its platform. Nothing else on the list comes close on price.
## YouTube TV's sports tier
The standard plan is $83 a month, but the $65 Sports package now includes USA Network, NBC Sports, and Telemundo. Universo needs the $14.99 Spanish Plus add-on.
## Sling and Fubo undercut cable
Sling Blue runs $46 a month with USA Network. Fubo Latino is $20 and carries both Telemundo and Universo, the cheapest route to Spanish commentary.
## The $90 tier trap
DirecTV's Entertainment package and Hulu + Live TV both land at $90 a month. On Hulu, Telemundo is another $11.99 on top, which PCMag calls out as excessive.

## Free trials, timed right
DirecTV, Fubo, and YouTube TV all offer free trials that reach NBC. They last a few days, so start the clock the week of the match you actually care about.
## A VPN widens the map
International feeds like Sky Sports, Stan, and Canal+ are geo-locked. A streaming-friendly VPN lets you subscribe and watch from abroad, and can unlock TNT Sports on HBO Max in the UK.
## Brazil is the free channel
CazéTV streams select matches free on YouTube. Connect a VPN to a Brazilian server and the game is yours at no cost, which is the closest thing to a genuine free livestream.
## Who's in this year
Twenty clubs, with Coventry City, Ipswich Town, and Hull City promoted. Coventry returns after 25 years away. West Ham, Burnley, and Wolves went down; Arsenal defends the title.
## Key takeaway

Peacock Premium at $10.99 a month is the cheapest legitimate way to watch Premier League matches in the US; free trials and a VPN pointed at Brazil cover the rest.
