Pep Guardiola's Man City are the favorites to win the league again this year. They currently trail Tottenham in top spot by two points, but a win in this game would see them rise to the summit of the standings, at least temporarily.

City delivered an imperious performance last time out, easing past Man Utd 3-0 at Old Trafford. It was perhaps their most complete display of the season to date, as City shut out their opponents in defense and overwhelmed them going forward.

Bournemouth, meanwhile, finally picked up their first victory of the EPL season last weekend, coming from behind to beat Burnley 2-1. That will have come as a huge relief to under-fire manager Andoni Iraola, but the Cherries could come crashing back down to earth on Saturday.

Indeed, Man City will expect to come out on top without too much difficulty in this match. Bournemouth will need to deliver a huge performance to avoid defeat.

This promises to be an exciting duel, so make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action by checking out our full how to watch Premier League live streams hub.

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

The Man City vs Bournemouth live stream will be shown on many different channels across the world, but what if you're not in your home country and 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.

Our favorite right now is ExpressVPN, thanks to its combination of superb speed, great customer service and excellent device support. It also offers a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you could check it out without having to sign up long-term.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

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

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 and watch the game.
