Outgoing Sporting CP boss Rúben Amorim will get an early chance to take on Pep Guardiola ahead of his move to the Premier League today as his side take on Man City in the Champions League.
Amorim has agreed to join City's local rival Man Utd later this month, with this game his final home fixture in charge of Sporting, meaning the 39-year-old will likely be determined to bow out with a big result.
They face an injury-ravaged City side who saw their club record 33 game unbeaten run end at the weekend as they suffered a surprise 2-1 defeat to Bournemouth.
Sporting CP take on Man City on Tuesday, Nov. 5, at the Estádio José Alvalade, with kickoff set for 8 p.m. WET local time in Portugal, 8 p.m. That makes it 8 p.m. GMT in the UK, a 3 p.m. ET or 12 p.m. PT kickoff in the US and Canada, and a 7 a.m. AEDT start in Australia on Wednesday morning.
Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the match as it happens, wherever you are in the world.
Today's match is Rúben Amorim's second from last in charge of Sporting before he takes over the hot seat at Manchester United.

How to watch every UEFA Champions League 2024/25 game online from anywhere using a VPN
If you find yourself unable to view UCL matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the games -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.
