Wolves vs Chelsea live stream: Can you watch for free?

By Tim Keeney Published August 25, 2024

After each suffering a 2-0 defeat to open the 2024-25 Premier League season, Wolves and Chelsea look to bounce back when they meet up at Molineux Stadium today.

The match starts at 9:15 a.m. ET, and in the United States it will stream exclusively on Peacock. As such, you can watch it completely free, but if you’re a Premier League fan even a little bit, and you want to watch Premier League soccer this season, you’ll want to know about Peacock. Here’s everything you need to know to watch a live stream of Wolves vs Chelsea.

Watch Wolves vs Chelsea on Peacock

In the United States, if a match isn’t televised on USA Network or CNBC, then it will stream live on Peacock TV. That’s the case for today’s Wolves vs Chelsea match, which is only available on Peacock. In fact, about half of the games this season will stream live on Peacock this season, and there can be up to nine on any given weekend.

There is, unfortunately, no free trial with Peacock, but the “Premium” plan–which is all you need to watch Premier League matches–is just $8 per month. Or, if you plan on watching EPL action throughout the 2024-25 season, you can get Peacock for just $80 for the entire year, which essentially gives you two months for free.

For Premier League fans, that price is certainly well worth it. You’re getting exclusive matches every week, as well as a live simulcast of NBC-televised games, replays of other televised games and other EPL programming. But even on off-days, you’ll still have something to watch. There’s tons of other live sports and a massive on-demand library of TV shows and movies.

You can only watch Premier League matches on Peacock if you’re in the United States. However, if you’re abroad, you can use a virtual private network (VPN) to make it look like you’re physically located in the US. This gets you around the location restrictions and lets you stream Peacock or other US-only services even if you’re outside of the country.

We suggest going with NordVPN, which is safe, fast and offers a 30-day money-back guarantee. However, you can also look at our rundowns of the best VPN services or best VPN deals for some alternatives.

Scary Movie 6 returned after more than a decade, and the gamble paid off at the box office. The sixth installment debuted to $55 million domestically, the best opening weekend in the series' history, and went on to gross over $215 million worldwide as of late June.

Ahead of the movie's June 5 theatrical release, Wayans Bros. Entertainment launched a website called Subservient Ghostface, where you type a command and watch the masked killer carry it out on screen. It's a clever campaign that borrows directly from Burger King's famous Subservient Chicken stunt from 2004, swapping the chicken suit for the horror icon Ghostface from Scream.

Comcast’s breakup is the bluntest warning yet that the cable bundle is losing its grip

Peacock and Xfinity customers should see stability now as NBCUniversal's split rewires the logic behind future streaming perks.

Comcast's breakup sounds like an alarm bell for Peacock, Xfinity, and the monthly internet bill. At the service level, the answer is calmer. Current customers shouldn't expect subscriptions, billing, or broadband plans to change while the company works through the split.

NBC News reports that Comcast plans to spin NBCUniversal and Sky into a separate public company, moving Peacock, Universal, NBC, Telemundo, Bravo, theme parks, and Sky away from the broadband and wireless business. The separation is expected to take about a year.
