Brighton v Newcastle United live stream, Sky Sports, Saturday 20 March, 8pm GMT
Relegation rivals Brighton and Newcastle will go head-to-head in a crunch Premier League clash on Saturday night.
Graham Potter’s side picked up a huge win last weekend, overcoming Southampton 2-1 to give their survival chances a major boost. Brighton are not in the clear just yet, though, with only three points separating them from the bottom three going into the weekend. That gap could have shrunk by the time they take to the field at the Amex Stadium on Saturday, with Fulham in action around 24 hours earlier.
According to many metrics, Brighton are unfortunate to be in a relegation battle. They have produced a higher level of performance on a more regular basis than many of the teams around them, but a failure to take their chances has proved costly on numerous occasions. Potter will be desperate to see his side develop a more ruthless streak from here on in.

Newcastle are two points clear of the drop zone at the time of writing, although many of their supporters have started to worry. The Magpies are without a win in their last five fixtures, and although each of their last three outings has ended with the scores level, Steve Bruce’s side are in a precarious position.
Brighton will have to make do without Adam Webster, Solly March, Tariq Lamptey and Florin Andone. Aaron Connolly will require a late fitness test due to an abdominal injury, while Dan Burn is another who will need to be assessed following a thigh issue. Potter has used both three-man and four-man backlines this term and is likely to opt for the latter here.
Newcastle will be unable to call upon the services of Callum Wilson, who they will hope to have available after the international break following a thigh injury. Allan Saint-Maximin will also miss out, as will Fabian Schar. Miguel Almiron has an outside chance of featuring but, despite the importance of this match, Bruce will be wary of rushing the Paraguay international back too soon.
Kick-off is at 8pm GMT and the game is being shown on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League in the UK. See below for watching details where you are.

Use a VPN to watch a Brighton v Newcastle United live stream from outside your country
If you’re on holiday or just simply out of the country, your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows exactly where you are from your IP address. Your access to the game will be automatically blocked, which is annoying if you’ve paid a subscription fee and don't want to use an illegal, buffering stream that makes you miss another Jose Mourinho tantrum. And that's where we recommend ExpressVPN (more on which below).
All you need to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get beyond such aggravations (assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs). A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, meaning suppliers can’t work out where you are and what you’re doing. The info going to and from is entirely encrypted.
