La Liga Football Live Stream: How to watch Barcelona vs. Espanyol from anywhere

Barcelona face a difficult Catalan derby test on Sunday when they host Espanyol at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium in this important Spanish Primera match.

It has been a fantastic start to the season for the league leaders Blaugrana under new boss Hansi Flick, with statement wins in October over Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League as well as Alaves, Sevilla and Real Madrid in La Liga.

With Real not playing this weekend due to their postponed match with Valencia, a win for Barca today would see them open up a massive 9 point lead over their title rivals at the top of the table.

Espanyol are struggling in 17th place in the division but come into this derby clash on the back of a 4-0 win over San Tirso in the Copa del Rey.

Barcelona take on Espanyol at the Lluís Companys Olympic Stadium on Sunday 3rd November. Kickoff is set for 16:15 CET local time, making it a 10:15 a.m. ET and 7:15 a.m. PT start in the USA, a 3:15 at start in the UK and a 02:15 AEDT kickoff in Australia early Sunday morning.

How to watch La Liga from anywhere with a VPN

If you are unable to watch La Liga matches locally, you may need another way to watch the matches – this is where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to prevent your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a good idea if you’re traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network and you will add an extra layer of privacy to your devices and logins.

With a VPN, you can virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to access the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.

It’s legal to use a VPN to watch or stream sports in all countries where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you’re streaming. Make sure your VPN is set up properly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing properly applied blackout restrictions.

Quick tips for streaming La Liga using a VPN

• With four variables at play – your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN – your experience and success when streaming La Liga matches can vary.
• If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using “search by city or country”.
• If you’re having trouble getting the game after turning on your VPN and setting it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log in to your streaming services subscription account and ensure that the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address registered to your account. Second, some smart TVs — like Roku — don’t have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you use (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network will now appear in the correct display location.
• All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main page to quickly install the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network’s sports app, you will be asked to confirm a numeric code or click on a link sent to your email address registered with your smart- television. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help as both devices appear to be in the right location.
• Remember that browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so make sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We usually recommend Brave.
