Looking for an Austria v Scotland live stream? We’ve got you covered with our handy guide.

Scotland’s latest friendly takes them to Vienna to face Austria, who saw their World Cup hopes ended by Wales in last week’s play-off semi-final.

This is the second of two friendlies this international break for Steve Clarke’s side, who drew 1-1 with Poland at Hampden Park on Thursday night.

The Scots are unbeaten in seven games and beat Austria during the group stage of World Cup qualifying at this very venue – the Ernst Happel Stadion – in October, thanks to Lyndon Dykes’ first-half penalty.

That was the 22nd meeting between the two countries; Scotland have not lost on any of their last five trips to Austria, last suffering defeat there back in 1978.

Clarke might mix things up for this one, with uncapped goalkeepers Zander Clark and Liam Kelly, defender Craig Halkett and striker Ross Stewart all potentially in line for debuts. Captain Andy Robertson is a doubt after missing the Poland match through illness.

Austria boss Franco Foda may well also rotate heavily, but experienced centre-half Aleksandar Dragovic could win his 100th cap.

Kick-off is at 7.45pm GMT; UK viewers can watch live on Sky Sports Action.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch international friendlies from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for any international friendly action, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to tune in without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
