Everton vs Luton Town live stream: Can you watch for free?

Everton and Luton Town will each try to put a bright spot on their respective campaigns when they face off Saturday in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

In a showdown between struggling Premier League sides, Everton and Luton Town will each try to put a bright spot on their respective campaigns when they face off Saturday in the fourth round of the FA Cup. It’s a rematch of a September matchup, which saw Luton capture their first-ever Premier League victory in a 2-1 win at Goodison Park.

The match is set to kick off at 10:00 a.m. ET and will broadcast exclusively on ESPN+ in the United States. That means there’s no legal way to watch the match for free if you’re in the US, but ESPN+ will certainly prove to be worth it for any soccer fan. What follows is a rundown of how to sign up for ESPN+, what’s included and everything else you need to know to watch Everton vs Luton Town.

If you live in the US, you’ll need to subscribe to ESPN+ to watch Everton vs Luton Town. Once signed up, you can watch the match on your phone, tablet or other streaming device via the ESPN app, or you can watch on your computer via the ESPN website.

Unfortunately there is no free trial available (though there are some interesting deals if you shop around), but with the amount of content included, ESPN+ pays for itself very quickly. You’ll be able to watch every FA Cup match from now through the end of the tournament, plus La Liga, Bundesliga, Copa del Rey, the Championship and dozens of other live sports that are only available on ESPN+. Throw in every 30-for-30 documentary and other original shows, and you have a streaming service that every sports fan needs.

ESPN+ by itself costs either $11 per month or $110 per year, with the latter essentially giving you two months free. Or, you can get a bundle of ESPN+, Disney+ and Hulu for $15 per month.

If you’re currently out of the country, you’ll need a virtual private network (VPN) to stream the match. ESPN+ is location-restricted to the United States, but a VPN can mask your location and allow you to stream content as if you’re still at home. There are a number of good VPN’s that come with enticing deals, but we suggest trying out NordVPN. It’s reliable, it doesn’t limit your streaming speeds and it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee if you don’t like it.

YouTube videos could soon look better without eating quite so much data, right? Thankfully, the platform plans to introduce a new video format called AV2 on its web player in early 2027, promising more efficient streaming and potentially fewer playback hiccups on slower internet connections. The big headline is a roughly 30% improvement in compression efficiency over AV1, YouTube's existing video format. That doesn't guarantee every video will use 30% less data, but it could make streaming a little easier on both internet connections and data allowances.

What is AV2, and why should viewers care?

YouTube is changing how its Home page works, giving viewers more control over what shows up there and making some of the app’s most-used sections easier to reach. Custom Feeds are now replacing the existing topic chips for eligible users, while YouTube is also testing a redesigned top bar on mobile that moves Subscriptions closer to the Home feed.

YouTube first started experimenting with Custom Feeds earlier this year, letting you type out what you wanted to watch and turning that request into its own stream of recommendations. Now, the feature is starting to look less like a side experiment and more like something YouTube actually wants people to use as part of their everyday Home page.
