Ipswich Town vs Aston Villa live stream: How to watch Premier League game online today, team news

The Ipswich Town vs Aston Villa live stream is a chance for the Tractor Boys to get their first Premier League win of the season but their visitors will present a tough test — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN.

The current EPL table suggests that Ipswich Town’s unexpected return to the Premier League after 22 years away hasn’t started well. And while the newly promoted side still have yet to get three points on the board, there have been encouraging signs with draws against established top-flight teams Brighton and Fulham. But sooner rather than later, Ipswich need to get that first win, and it’s more likely to come at a sold-out Portman Road than an away stadium. 

For Aston Villa, the wave of positive momentum that fueled them back to the Champions League last season doesn’t appear to have lessened. Villa sit in third place with four wins and only a single defeat in five games (and that loss was to title-challenging Arsenal), that’s a record that speaks to the masterful job that Unai Emery has done and continues to do as Villa boss. 

Ipswich Town vs Aston Villa should be an exciting match as the visitors are known for playing slick football, but the home side won’t make things easy. Here’s how to watch this Premier League game online and from anywhere. 

Plus, make sure you keep up with all the EPL action with our how to watch Premier League live streams guide.
