Brentford vs Brighton kick-off time

Premier League - Premier League

Gtech Community Stadium

Brentford and Brighton will kick off on 21 Feb 2026 at 10:00 EST and 15:00 GMT. 

Match preview

Brentford have picked up 20 points in their last 10 Premier League matches, as many as they won in their first 16 games this season. Only leaders Arsenal (21) have picked up more points in this most recent 10-match sequence.

Brighton boss Fabian Hürzeler could be the next EPL boss to lose his job. Although the 32-year-old is highly thought of and in demand, the Seagulls' recent form has been too woeful to ignore. No side has won fewer Premier League matches since December than Brighton, with their only win in this time coming against Burnley. Without an away win in the EPL since November, Brentford's Gtech Community Stadium looks a daunting place for the Seagulls to fly right now.

Step-by-step VPN guide to watch Brentford vs Brighton today

NordVPN

1. Download & Install: Sign up to ExpressVPN or another reputable VPN service (check out GOAL's guide here) and download the app on your device.
2. Connect to a Server: Open the app and select a server location where the match is being shown (e.g. if you are in the UK but want to watch a US stream, connect to a US server).
3. Clear Cache: Sometimes your browser holds onto your old location. Clear your cookies or refresh your browser to ensure the change takes effect.
4. Start Streaming: Go to your broadcaster's website and app and enjoy the game.

How to watch on the Big Screen

Watching on your phone or laptop is fine, but live sports belongs on the big screen. Here is how to get the VPN working on your TV:

• Smart TVs & Fire Stick: Most Android-based TVs and devices like the Amazon Fire TV Stick or Google Chromecast with Google TV have native VPN apps. Simply search for your VPN provider in the app store on your TV, log in, and connect just like you would on your phone.
• Apple TV, Roku & Consoles: These devices often don't support direct VPN apps. The easiest workaround is to use Smart DNS (usually found in your VPN account settings) or Mirror/Cast the stream from your VPN-connected phone or laptop to your TV.
