Premier League 2025/26 Live Streaming: When and Where to Watch EPL Live in US - Liverpool open campaign against AFC Bournemouth on August 15

The 2025/26 Premier League season kicks off on August 15 with defending champions Liverpool hosting AFC Bournemouth in the opening match. Liverpool have bucked the trend by outspending their rivals with a squad overhaul fresh from winning the league.

Liverpool’s summer has been marked by major upheaval, with Trent Alexander-Arnold, Luis Díaz, and Darwin Núñez all sold to generate transfer funds. The squad is also coping with the emotional blow of losing Diogo Jota, who tragically died in a car accident last month.

The transition period under these difficult circumstances has exposed areas needing improvement before the new campaign begins, with both tactical adjustments and squad cohesion key to finding their attacking rhythm again.


Fans in the United States can watch all the action live through NBC Sports platforms. Matches will be broadcast on NBC, USA Network, and Telemundo (Spanish), with streaming available via Peacock Premium for select games. NBC Sports’ website and app also provide live coverage for authenticated subscribers.

This season promises intense competition as top clubs battle for the title, European spots, and survival. Liverpool’s opener against Bournemouth sets the tone for a thrilling campaign that runs through May 2026.

HOW TO WATCH PREMIER LEAGUE ON PEACOCK IN THE US

Every match of the 2025/26 Premier League season will stream on Peacock, with some games exclusive to the platform and others simulcast with NBC. Peacock’s Premium plan costs $10.99 per month, or you can pay annually for the price of 10 months, gaining 4K streams and full access to the Peacock library.

For an extra $6 monthly, the Premium Plus tier removes ads and allows downloads for offline viewing. However, matches aired on USA Network will not stream live on Peacock; full replays of those games will only be available the following day, so fans may need both services for complete coverage.
