Watch Manchester United vs Liverpool in the WSL for FREE

You can watch Manchester United vs Liverpool for free in certain countries, with the Women's Super League itself broadcasting the game directly on its YouTube channel..

This fixture, however, is heavily geo-restricted, because it's not being made available in the regions where the WSL has a dedicated broadcast deal.

So that means fans in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, and much of Europe and Africa will find access blocked.

However, you can still watch the free Manchester United vs Liverpool live stream, if you're away from home at the moment, by using a VPN - more on that below.

Watch Manchester United vs Liverpool from anywhere

What if you're away from home for the game, and your usual streaming service is geo-restricted? Well, there is a neat solution. A VPN - or Virtual Private Network - is a piece of software that sets your IP address to make your device appear to be in any country in the world.

Provided it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, you can use a VPN to unblock the streaming services you subscribe to, and it also comes with added internet security benefits.

FourFourTwo’s colleagues TechRadar are experts in this field, and they reckon NordVPN is the best VPN provider on the market.
