Man City vs Brighton live stream, date, time and TV channels

The Man City vs Brighton live stream takes place Saturday, March 15.
Time: 3 p.m. GMT / 11 a.m. ET / 8 a.m. PT / 2 a.m. AEDT (Sunday)
• U.S. — Watch on Peacock
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free

The title may be decided, and the relegation battle is nearly wrapped up, but the real drama is unfolding in the race for Champions League qualification! With nearly every team in the top half still in the hunt for a crucial top-five finish, the stakes couldn't be higher.

Man City are the favorites behind Liverpool and Arsenal, but they continue to struggle. Pep Guardiola's side looked devoid of ideas against Nottm Forest last time out. They will have plenty of possession when they face Brighton, but Man City must do a better job of creating clear-cut chances.

Only Liverpool have scored in more matches than Brighton in 24/25, so Fabian Hurzeler's men will fancy their chances of finding the net. Brighton are a brave team and they will take the game to Man City, so this promises to be an entertaining encounter.

Unfortunately, there will be no Man City vs Brighton live stream in the U.K.. That's because games that kick-off at 3 p.m. on a Saturday afternoon are subject to a TV blackout, to protect attendances elsewhere in the league pyramid.

Fans visiting the U.K. from abroad can use one of the best VPN services to access their usual streaming service from abroad. We recommend NordVPN.

As it stands, live Premier League rights are split three ways in the U.K. between Sky Sport, TNT Sports and Prime Video.

For the 24/25 season, Sky Sports is set to show 128 matches live, while TNT Sports will show 52 matches live, including every Saturday lunchtime kick-off. Prime Video showed 20 games before the New Year.
