Man Utd v Brighton, Aston Villa v Leeds Utd live with TNT Sports on HBO Max across Premier League's action-packed festive period React to this story TNT Sports and HBO Max will be showing two Premier League games over the Christmas period, featuring Aston Villa's meeting with Leeds United followed by Brighton & Hove Albion's hosting of Manchester United. Our festive offering of Premier League football will feature Villa taking on Leeds on Boxing Day – the perfect palette cleanser to your Christmas turkey. Then, on January 2, 2027, Brighton will bring in the New Year by welcoming Manchester United to the Amex, live with TNT Sports on HBO Max. Villa are still processing a summer of player turnover, with the likes of Morgan Rogers, Emi Martinez, Youri Tielemans and Ollie Watkins all departing, while Nicolas Jackson, Johan Manzambi and Aaron Wan-Bissaka are among a host of new recruits. But Unai Emery will be hoping the new arrivals settle quickly as his side look to continue challenging for the UEFA Champions League places. Meanwhile, Leeds’ ambition was laid bare this summer, with Daniel Farke’s side recruiting James Trafford and Tarik Muharemovic for big money, while shrewdly bringing in Harry Wilson from Premier League rivals Fulham on a free transfer. Both sides will be hoping to challenge for the European places when they meet on Boxing Day. Brighton, meanwhile, will be balancing their UEFA Conference League campaign with Premier League commitments and hope a home victory over United can kick off a new year in which they aim to win their first major silverware. But Michael Carrick’s side have domestic and European ambitions of their own, with the Old Trafford club back in the Champions League after three seasons away and buoyed by the arrivals of Tielemans, Andrey Santos and former Seagull Carlos Baleba. Both games are sure to be box-office viewing and the perfect excuse to take to the sofa after a Christmas period of turkey, stuffing and mince pies.
