After surviving a points dedication and a relegation scrap, Everton fans would have been hoping for some positives this summer. That has not been the case as they won just one of their pre-season friendlies and saw star performer Amadou Onana leave for Aston Villa. However, at the tail end of last season there were some positive signs as they won five of their final eight games.
Brighton have also lost an instrumental performer in Pascal Groß but have looked excellent in pre-season under new manager Fabian Hüerzler. The American-born coach was lavished with praise last season after getting St. Pauli promoted to the Bundesliga and will be keen to make a statement in his first Premier League game.
Line-ups:
Everton: Pickford; Young, Keane, Tarkowski, Mykolenko; Harrison, Iroegbunam, Gana Gueye, McNeil; Doucoure; Calvert-Lewin
Brighton: Steele, Veltman, Van Hecke, Dunk, Hinshelwood, Milner, Wieffer, Mitoma, Minteh, Welbeck, Pedro.
Last season both games ended in 1-1 draws. Will someone grab the initiative this time around? Tune in today to find out, plus make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.

It's the best on the market:
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

Unfortunately, there will be no Everton vs Brighton live stream in the United Kingdom. That's because U.K. broadcasters are blocked from airing Saturday 3 p.m. kick-offs to protect attendances elsewhere in the football pyramid.

As it stands, live Premier League rights are split three ways in the U.K. between Sky Sports, TNT Sports and Amazon Prime Video.
