In the United States, Liverpool vs Brighton & Hove Albion in Matchweek 8 of the 2026/27 Premier League season will be shown live on Peacock on Sunday, October 25, 2026. The service has two separate listings: “Liverpool v. Brighton” and “Liverpool v. Brighton (Español)”. Scheduled kickoff is 10 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT).
The match takes place at Anfield in Liverpool and kicks off at 14:00 GMT. The broadcast listings, subscription plans and access information in this article were checked on October 21, 2026 and apply to the United States.
Where can you stream the match live in the US?
Peacock is the service identified for this specific fixture in its own published schedule. The Premier League's US match listing and an independent schedule from Sports Media Watch also identify Peacock as the destination.
To watch, open Peacock's app or website, sign in with a subscription that includes live sports, go to Sports / Premier League and select the Liverpool vs Brighton listing. Having general league rights would not, by itself, confirm carriage of this particular match; in this case, the October 25 fixture is explicitly listed.
What time does Liverpool vs Brighton kick off?
Liverpool confirmed a 14:00 GMT kickoff, after the United Kingdom returns to standard time. Daylight saving time will still be in effect in the United States on October 25. That gives the following kickoff times across the main US time zones.
All times in the table refer to the scheduled match kickoff, not any earlier pregame stream. Peacock's interface may show a separate stream start time or adjust times to your device's time zone.
| Region | Local time on Oct 25 |
|---|---|
| US Eastern (EDT) | 10 a.m. |
| US Central (CDT) | 9 a.m. |
| US Mountain (MDT) | 8 a.m. |
| US Pacific (PDT) | 7 a.m. |
| United Kingdom (GMT) | 2 p.m. |
How do you choose English or Spanish?
Peacock's public schedule includes a standard listing, “Liverpool v. Brighton”, and another explicitly labeled “Liverpool v. Brighton (Español)”. The second identifies the Spanish-language option; the standard listing is the one to select for English coverage.
Both entries are within Peacock. This does not establish a separate free-to-air or pay-TV Spanish-language broadcast. The available schedule does not confirm announcer names, analysts or whether audio can be switched inside the same video player.
Which Peacock subscription do you need?
As of October 21, Peacock displayed Premium at US$12.99 per month (or US$129.99 annually) and Premium Plus at US$19.99 per month (or US$199.99 annually). Both plans advertise live sports. These are the platform's listed prices on the check date; prices, taxes and promotional offers may change.
Premium includes ads. Premium Plus removes many ads from other programming, but Peacock notes that live sports and events may still carry advertising. The more expensive plan therefore does not guarantee an ad-free live sports stream.
Peacock also states that matches streamed live through the service may become available as on-demand replays shortly after the livestream ends. Watching live requires legitimate service access and an eligible subscription.
Is the match on a US TV channel?
The Premier League's match-specific US listing points to Peacock for Liverpool vs Brighton. This check did not establish an additional US linear TV broadcast, so NBC, USA Network, Telemundo or Universo should not be presented as confirmed alternatives without an event-specific listing.
Liverpool's rescheduling notice mentions Sky Sports, but that is the broadcaster for the United Kingdom, not evidence of a US outlet. Peacock says its service is available in the US and certain US territories. Its coverage cannot automatically be assumed to extend to other countries.
Why did the date change, and what should you check?
The fixture was originally scheduled for Saturday, October 24. Liverpool subsequently confirmed a move to Sunday, October 25, at 14:00 GMT following Brighton's qualification for the Conference League league phase. The new date also appears in the Premier League's updated fixture schedule.
Because match times and broadcast arrangements may change, check Peacock's sports schedule again before kickoff, including the “Español” listing if that is your preferred feed. The status described here reflects the listings checked on October 21, 2026.
