A familiar, craggy face returns to the dugout at Goodison Park today, as David Moyes begins his second spell in charge of Everton with a tough home game against Aston Villa in the English Premier League.
Moyes was confirmed as Sean Dyche’s replacement last week, his appointment coming 12 years after he left the Merseyside club to manage Manchester United. The task ahead of the former West Ham and Preston boss is a tough one, with Everton just one point and two places clear of the relegation zone.
They face an Aston Villa side who have continually disappointed on the road this season, with Unai Emery’s men having lost five away matches in a row.
Everton face Aston Villa on Wednesday January 15 at Liverpool’s Goodison Park, with kick-off scheduled for 7:30 p.m. GMT local time. This makes it a 2:30 p.m. ET or 11:30 a.m. PT start in the United States and Canada, and a 6:30 a.m. AEDT kicking off in Australia on Thursday January 16.
Below we will describe the best live TV streaming services use to watch the match as it happens, wherever you are in the world.

How to watch the 2024-25 Premier League season from anywhere with a VPN
If you’re unable to watch EPL matches locally, you may need another way to watch matches – this is 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. It’s also a great idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network and want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and connections.
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 this a breeze.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in all countries where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK, and Canada, provided you have a legitimate subscription to the service you are streaming. You need to make sure your VPN is properly configured to prevent leaks: Even when VPNs are legal, the streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it considers to be circumventing properly enforced ban restrictions.

Quick Tips for Streaming the Premier League Using a VPN
- With four variables in play: your ISP, your browser, your video streaming provider, and your VPN – your experience and success when streaming EPL matches may vary.
- If you don’t see your desired location as the default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “Find city or country” option.
- If you’re having trouble getting the game after enabling your VPN and setting it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log in to your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. Otherwise, you may need to change the physical address registered with 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 mobile hotspot you’re using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct display location.
- All the VPN providers we recommend offer helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with Smart TV services, after installing a cable network’s sports app, you will 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 that browsers can often give away location despite using a VPN, so be sure to use a privacy-focused browser to connect to your services. We normally recommend Brave.
