by After some never-say-die heroics to claim a last-gasp win over Bournemouth last weekend, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will be hoping for more of the same fighting spirit as they face Fulham on Sunday.
The match is the first of two back-to-back London derbies for the Gunners before the international break, with Crystal Palace to follow next weekend. Boss Mikel Arteta will be desperate to ensure his side maintain their advantage over title rivals Man City, with Arsenal currently five points clear at the top of the English Premier League.
Fulham are enjoying a fantastic first season back in the Premier League, but their hopes of qualifying for European football have been dashed after losing 3-2 to Brentford last time out. The home side’s chances of bouncing back from that defeat with a win on Sunday aren’t great — the Cottagers are on a run of nine consecutive meetings without a win against the Gunners.
Below, we’ll outline the best live tv streaming services to watch the game live wherever you are in the world.

How to watch Fulham vs Arsenal online from anywhere using a VPN
If you can’t watch the game locally, you may need a different way to watch the game — that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a great idea if you’re traveling and connected to a Wi-Fi network and want to add a 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 ours Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPNmake it really easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legal subscription to the service you’re streaming. You should make sure your VPN is set up properly to avoid leaks: Even when VPNs are legitimate, the streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing properly enforced obfuscation restrictions.

Quick tips for streaming the Premier League using a VPN
- With four variables at play — ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming EPL matches may vary.
- If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “search city or country” option.
- If you’re having trouble downloading the game after you’ve enabled your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, sign in to 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 that you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll need to install the VPN on your router or the mobile access point you’re using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network will now appear in the correct viewing position.
- All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main website 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. Having a VPN on your router will also help here, as both devices will appear to be in the correct location.
- And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so make sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to connect to your services. We usually recommend Brave.
