Two "Big Six" clubs meet at Old Trafford with both teams looking to improve upon mixed starts to the season. Sunday's final EPL game of the weekend sees Man United welcome Spurs to Old Trafford, in a match which should give a good indication of both team's top four credentials.
Spurs currently find themselves in seventh, sitting one place above their opponents on goal difference, and come into this match off the back of an encouraging 3-1 win against London rivals Brentford.
A hugely disappointing 1-1 draw at home with Twente in the UEFA Europa League in midweek has meanwhile once again heaped pressure back on manager Erik ten Hag. The Reds remain in a defensive injury crisis, with Leny Yoro, Victor Lindelof, Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia all unavailable, however Mason Mount could make a long-awaited return to Premiership action for the hosts today.
Manchester United take on Tottenham on Sunday, Sept. 29, at Old Trafford, with kickoff set for 4:30 p.m. BST local time, making it a 11:30 a.m. ET or 8:30 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and an 1:30 a.m. AEST kickoff in Australia.
Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the match as it happens, wherever you are in the world.

If you find yourself unable to view EPL matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the games -- 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. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN, make 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, UK 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.
ExpressVPN is our current best VPN pick for people who want a reliable and safe VPN, and it works on a variety of devices. It's normally $13 a month, but if you sign up for an annual subscription for $100 you'll get three months free and save 49%. That's the equivalent of $6.67 a month with code SPECIALDEAL, which should be automatically applied.
Note that ExpressVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
