Aston Villa have won 13 games in a row at Villa Park, and currently sit 4th in the Premier League table. It’s a truly incredible turnout under Unai Emery, even more so when you consider the team flirted with relegation in the early stages of last season under former manager Steven Gerrard. While Aston Villa’s away form has been a little patchy, they look practically unbeatable at home, but that label will be firmly tested by the visit of Man City. 

It’s rare to say that Man City are in relatively poor form by their own lofty standards, but Pep Guardiola’s men have now gone three EPL games without a victory. A run of draws against Chelsa, Liverpool and Tottenham is not a disaster considering the quality of opponents faced, but it has seen the reigning champions drop down to third place. As noted, Villa Park is a very tough place to visit, and Man City will have to do so without two key players: Jack Grealish and Rodri, as both are suspended. The latter missed three games earlier this season and during that period Man City failed to win a single game, which could be an ominous sign. 

Can Aston Villa keep their Villa Park winning streak alive, or will Man City bounce back from this slightly rocky period with an emphatic win? You’ll need to watch an Aston Villa vs Man City live stream to find out, and we’ve got all the details you need down below.

How to watch the Aston Villa vs Man City live stream wherever you are

The Aston Villa vs Man City live stream will be shown on many different channels across the world, but what if you're not in your home country and still want to watch it on your usual service?

The answer is to use a VPN, or virtual private network. A VPN will let you tune into your home coverage from wherever you are — meaning that if you're abroad, you can use one of the best VPN services to watch the games live as if you were in your lounge.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, ExpressVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.K. and want to view a U.S. service, you'd select U.S. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Sling TV or another service to watch the game.
