After a two-decade absence, Newcastle return to the UEFA Champions League today with a visit to seven-time European champions AC Milan.

Newcastle come into the clash off the back of a 1-0 home win against Brentford in the English Premier League, while the hosts will be looking to put a stinging 5-1 defeat in Serie A to local rivals Inter Milan on Saturday behind them.

Intriguingly, the match sees the Magpies’ big-money midfield signing Sandro Tonali facing the club he left in the summer for $66 million.

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

How to watch AC Milan vs. Newcastle online from anywhere using a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view Champions League matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the action — 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. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, nonblackout area. 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.
