After a famous win over Merseyside rivals Liverpool in midweek, Everton could round off a memorable seven days by ensuring their English Premier League status with another victory at home to Brentford on Saturday.
After a club record 13-game winless run, Everton boss Sean Dyche appears to have steadied the ship, with the Toffees having claimed three wins from their last four games to steer themselves eight points clear of the relegation zone.
Having had their own flirtation with the drop zone, Brentford are almost mathematically safe. However, they face a side that have beaten them in their previous two meetings, and come into this clash with a number of injury concerns. Key striker Ivan Toney is among those that are doubtful for the Bees.
Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game live wherever you are in the world.

If you find yourself unable to view the game locally, you may need a different way to watch the game -- 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. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, non-blackout area. 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.
