Aston Villa vs Nottm Forest live stream: How to watch Premier League game online

The Aston Villa vs Nottm Forest live stream sees two teams at polar opposite ends of the table battle it out for three points — and you can watch it live from anywhere with a VPN.

Aston Villa have been flying high and a Champions League spot is now within reach of the Villains. With last week’s win over Fulham thanks to two goals from the main man, Ollie Watkins, Unai Emery will want to follow up with another Premier League against Nottm Forest victory on Saturday. 

Nott’m Forest have had an underwhelming season so far but have managed to cling onto sixteenth place – four points above the relegation zone. After going five Premier League games without a win, Nuno Espírito Santo finally extracted a good performance from his team with a 2-0 victory over West Ham last week. Having Taiwo Awoniyi back from injury was vital to their success and he'll no doubt be a threat on Saturday.
