France v Germany live stream, ITV, Tuesday 15 June, 8pm BST
France and Germany will go head-to-head in one of the most highly-anticipated group-stage matches at Euro 2020.
World champions and the bookmakers’ favourites going into the tournament, anything less than victory this summer would be a disappointment for the French. Didier Deschamps has tremendous strength in depth to call upon, so much so that the likes of Dayot Upamecano, Nabil Fekir, Tanguy Ndombele and Anthony Martial did not even make it into the 26-man squad.
France were made even stronger last month when Deschamps decided to recall Karim Benzema after a six-year absence from the national team. Olivier Giroud might not have been best pleased, but the addition of the Real Madrid striker to an attack which already features Antoine Griezmann and Kylian Mbappe is yet further evidence of why France are the team to beat at Euro 2020.

The attack is mouth-watering, but it is arguably les Bleus’ defensive options that set them apart from the likes of England and Belgium. Raphael Varane and Presnel Kimpembe form a solid partnership at centre-back, while N’Golo Kante is the best ball-winner in world football. France are unlikely to concede many goals this summer.
Germany also have some gifted players to call upon, particularly in midfield where Leon Goretzka, Toni Kroos and Ilkay Gundogan look set to start. There is speed on the flanks provided by players like Serge Gnabry and Leroy Sane, while Joachim Low sensibly swallowed his pride and recalled Mats Hummels and Thomas Muller.
There are doubts over Low himself, however, with many Germans unconvinced that he is still the right man to lead the national team. The long-serving coach will step down after this tournament, for which he has yet to settle on a preferred formation. Whether that comes to be seen as admirable adaptability or unforgivable indecision will depend on Tuesday’s result in Munich.
Kick-off is at 8pm BST and the game is being shown on ITV/ITV Hub. See below for watching details where you are.

Use a VPN to watch a France v Germany live stream from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for any Euro 2020 fixtures, 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 still want to catch Harry Kane's in-swinging corners 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:
