England vs Scotland is scheduled for Friday, June 18, at 8 PM BST (9 PM CEST). This Euro 2020 Group D fixture will take place at Wembley Stadium, London. The two nations first met in 1872, making this one of the oldest international rivalries in history. Like most televised sporting events, England vs Scotland will be subject to geographic restrictions. However, you can watch the match from anywhere by using a Virtual Private Network (VPN).

Please keep in mind that we’re only recommending official sources for watching England vs Scotland live online. We don’t think it’s fair to cover unlicensed streams which tend to be lower resolution with excessive lag. Indeed, some of these unofficial sources even get taken offline for violating copyright. You can save all this stress by sticking with official sources, some of which even let you watch England vs Scotland for free.

England vs Scotland will only be available to stream on region-locked platforms. To continue watching your home streaming service while traveling abroad, you’ll need a VPN.

How to watch England vs Scotland live online with a VPN

When you use a VPN, your internet traffic is encrypted. This allows you to browse securely and anonymously. What’s more, connecting to a VPN server provides you with a different IP address. You can then use this to access geo-restricted platforms and their content (such as the England vs Scotland match).

Here’s how to live stream England vs Scotland using a VPN:

Sign up with a reputable VPN provider. We recommend NordVPN. However, Surfshark and ExpressVPN are reliable and affordable alternatives for streaming.
Next, you’ll need to download and install the VPN app that’s compatible with your device. The above VPNs also offer Chrome and Firefox browser extensions.
Log in to the VPN app and connect to a server in the country of the streaming platform you’re trying to unblock (such as the UK to access ITV Hub).
Now you can go to the streaming platform in question and sign in (or sign up as necessary). All of its content should now be available in your location.
Didn’t work? Try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies before refreshing your browser. Alternatively, change your IP address by connecting to another server.

The Euro 2020 match between England and Scotland will air live. It’s for this reason that we recommend you test your VPN with your chosen platform ahead of time. If you have any trouble, you then have time to contact your VPN’s customer support who may be able to provide further assistance.

How to watch England vs Scotland (Euro 2020) on UK TV

One of the very best options for watching England vs Scotland live online is ITV Hub. That’s because, unlike some streaming options, you can watch for free. In order to do so, you’ll need an ITV Hub account. This asks you to provide your name, email address, date of birth, and UK postcode (any UK postal code is accepted). A UK TV license is also required although there’s no actual verification process in place to check that you have one. Note that viewers in Scotland can use STV Player instead.

ITV Hub and STV Player are only available in the UK. To live stream England vs Scotland from abroad, you’ll need to connect to a VPN server in the UK. You’ll then have a UK IP address capable of unblocking the game. NordVPN works with ITV Hub and even includes a 30-day money-back guarantee. As such, you’ll be able to use it risk-free. If you change your mind, just make sure you request a refund before the conclusion of the 30-day period.
