How to watch Sheffield Utd vs Aston Villa: live stream Premier League game online

Sheffield Utd vs Aston Villa is a must-watch Premier League clash at Bramall Lane — and you can watch it live from anywhere with a VPN.

Aston Villa’s sensational season came to a halt in the week when Newcastle came to Villa park and bagged a deserved 3-1 win. Fortunately for Villa, Ollie Watkins kept his form and managed to get a late consolation. Villans boss Unai Emery will want to bounce back, and beating 20th-place Sheffield Utd will be the perfect place to start. 

Sheffield Utd haven’t had a great season and relegation beckons. That’s not to say they don’t have a chance, after all we’ve seen bigger miracles in the Premier League. Chris Wilder will need to defend thoroughly and must look to the ever trusty Jack Robinson who has already made 89 clearances for The Blades this season. Although goals haven’t been their strong point, Sheffield will look to experienced striker, Oliver McBurnie, who has bagged four Premier League goals this season, for inspiration.

Sheffield United: Foderingham, Bogle, Holgate, Ahmedhodzic, Trusty, Norrington-Davies, McAtee, Vinicius Souza, Brooks, Brereton-Diaz, Osula.

Subs: Hamer, Archer, Norwood, Robinson, Tom Davies, Osborn, One, Larouci, Amissah.

Aston Villa: Martinez, Konsa, Diego Carlos, Lenglet, Alex Moreno, Douglas Luiz, Kamara, Bailey, McGinn, Tielemans, Watkins.

Subs: Cash, Chambers, Diaby, Olsen, Rogers, Kesler-Hayden, Ramsey, Iroegbunam, Wright.
