Manchester United will be hoping to keep within touching distance of the European qualification places as they make the 35-mile trip to Everton for this weekend’s Premier League encounter, while the hosts look to make it three back-to-back wins.
The Red Devils are just outside of the Champions League spots as things stand, having recorded four victories and three defeats in a mixed start to the season. Erik ten Hag’s side will be hoping to bounce back from a bruising 6-3 defeat at local rivals Man City in their last Premier League outing, though there may still be a few tired legs from Thursday’s narrow win away at Cypriot side Omonia in the Europa Leagues.

Frank Lampard’s Everton team had a torrid start to the season with defeats in their opening two games, though form has since turned around. The Toffees sit in midtable as things stand and are looking to make it seven games unbeaten in the league going into this tough test. There was no midweek European action for the Blues, which could give them an edge today.
Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game live wherever you are in the world.

How to watch the Everton vs. Man United game online from anywhere using a VPN
If you find yourself unable to view the game locally, you may need a different way to watch the game — that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a great idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN, you’re able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, nonblackout area. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPNmake it really easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.
