The Aston Villa vs Liverpool live stream is a compelling clash at the top end of the table. Both sides have had frustrating results recently but will be determined to end their seasons on a high — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

The Villains have been one of the teams of the season and have a Champions League spot within their grasp. While they suffered a setback by losing to Brighton last time out in the league, Tottenham failed to capitalise, losing to The Reds comprehensively. A win tonight will guarantee the hosts a place in Europe's top competition.

Jurgen Klopp’s dream of ending his time at Anfield by lifting the Premier League trophy may have gone, but he will want to make sure he doesn’t go out with a whimper. He needs to avoid a yellow card this evening so that he can be on the touchline on Sunday. Unai Emery will have to rally his troops after going out of the Europa Conference League at the hands of Olympiakos.

Both teams need three points and both play exciting, attacking football so this should be a very watchable match. Read on to find out you can watch Aston Villa vs Liverpool live stream wherever you are.
