West Ham v Norwich live stream: How to watch the Premier League from anywhere in the world
Watch a West Ham v Norwich live stream as the Hammers look to move into the top four
West Ham v Norwich live stream, Wednesday 12 January, 7.45pm GMT
West Ham will climb into the top four in the Premier League if they beat rock-bottom Norwich City on Wednesday in a clash between two teams in contrasting form.
The Hammers knocked Leeds United out of the FA Cup with a 2-0 win on Sunday to notch a third consecutive victory in all competitions.
David Moyes’ side appear to have recovered from a slump in December, when they followed up a fine victory over Chelsea with one draw and four defeats in the league, League Cup and Europa League.
They’ve since beaten Watford and Crystal Palace, scoring seven goals in the process, and head into their midweek clash with the Canaries in fifth place, one point behind Arsenal.
It is a different story for Norwich, who have lost five league games in a row and look doomed to relegation barring an unexpected upturn in form.
Dean Smith’s side have failed to score a goal during that run and are winless in seven, but they are still not a hopeless case as they are just three points away from safety.
The manager will hope that his side’s 1-0 FA Cup win over Charlton on Sunday will give his players a confidence boost ahead of their trip to London.
It was their first match of 2022, as their New Year’s Day clash with Leicester was postponed, and they have recently recovered several important players like Teemu Pukki, Tim Krul, Todd Cantwell and Max Aarons.
Kick-off is at 7.45pm GMT on Wednesday 12 January, and the game is not being shown on UK TV. See below for international broadcast options.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier league football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
ExpressVPN including a 30-day, money-back guarantee
FourFourTwo’s brainy office mates TechRadar love its super speedy connections, trustworthy security and the fact it works with Android, Apple, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, PS4 and loads more. You also get a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support and it's currently available for a knockdown price. Go get it!
NordVPN with quality mobile and desktop apps
A cheaper option and almost ExpressVPN's equal when it comes to quality, too. A single subscription covers six connections, so you can use it on mobile, laptop, streaming devices and more, all at the same time.
Surfshark offers a great VPN at a fraction of the price
It's clear to see why Surfshark is top of TechRadar's best cheap VPN table – it combines an excellent product with bargain pricing, starting at £2/$2.50 a month!
