Watch UEFA Nations League Soccer: Livestream Republic of Ireland vs. England From Anywhere

Watch UEFA Nations League Soccer: Livestream Republic of Ireland vs. England From Anywhere

Two near neighbors with new managers at the helm face off at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday, as Ireland hosts England in this League B Group 2 clash. 

After Gareth Southgate's departure as manager in the summer, Saturday's match sees Lee Carsley take charge of England for the first time in his role as interim boss. 

Former Everton defender Carsley was capped 40 times for England's opponents today, but will now lead the visitors at the Aviva Stadium after a hugely successful stint as the visitor's under 21 manager. 

After a failing to reach a major tournament during previous boss Stephen Kenny's three-year tenure, Ireland will be hoping the appointment of new head coach Heimir Hallgrimsson will usher in a new era with the Boys in Green once again competing on football's biggest stages.

Hallgrimsson famously inflicted one of England's most famous defeats, having overseen a shock 2-1 victory over the Three Lions during the last-16 stage of Euro 2016.

The Republic of Ireland hosts England at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin on Saturday, Sept 7. Kickoff is set for 5 p.m. IST/ BST local time in Ireland and the UK, which is 12 p.m. ET or 9 a.m. PT in the US and Canada, and 2 a.m. AEST on Sunday, Sept. 8 in Australia.

Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game live wherever you are in the world.

How to watch the Ireland vs. England match online from anywhere using a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view this Nations League fixture locally, you may need a different way to watch the match -- 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.

Quick tips for streaming international soccer using a VPN 

With four variables at play -- your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN -- your experience and success when streaming soccer may vary. If you don't see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the "search for city or country" option. If you're having trouble getting the game after you've turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs -- like Roku -- don't have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you'll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you're using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location. All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network's sports app, you'll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location.  And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you're using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
