Bayern Munich will look to extend their lead at the top of the Bundesliga to 6 points on Saturday when they travel to the Millerntor-Stadion to take on St. Pauli.

Bayern’s win over Union Berlin, combined with Leipzig’s escape at Borussia Dortmund last weekend, means Vincent Kompany’s side have a 3-point cushion at the top of the table. They come into this game having edged Benfica 1-0 in their UEFA Champions League midweek fixture.

They face a St. Pauli side claimed their second league win of the season last weekend after beating Hoffenheim 2-0 away – a result that lifted Alexander Blessin’s side out of the relegation zone.

St. Pauli visit Bayern Munich at the Millerntor Stadium in Hamburg on Saturday 9 November. Kickoff is set for 15.30 CET local time in Germany, making it a 9:30 a.m. ET or 6:30 a.m. PT start in the USA, a 14:30 GMT start in the UK and a 01:30 AEDT kickoff in Australia in the early hours of Sunday morning.

Below we will outline the best live tv streaming services to use to watch live Bundesliga football wherever you are in the world.

How to watch the Bundesliga anywhere with a VPN

If you are unable to watch Bundesliga 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 are able to 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.

Can I live stream St. Pauli vs. Bayern Munich in the UK?

While the broadcast rights to show Bundesliga matches live in the UK are with Sky Sports, this match has not been selected for live broadcast by the network.

It also means that if you’re in the UK and traveling for pleasure or work, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to watch the game as you normally would at home thanks to geo-blocking.

However, there is one way around this. By using a VPN, as explained above, you can set your location to a country where the match is being broadcast and go from there.

Quick tips for streaming the Bundesliga using a VPN

  • With four variables at play – your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN – your experience and success when streaming Bundesliga 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 service 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 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 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.
  • And remember, 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.
