How to watch PSV vs Liverpool from anywhere
What if you're away from home for Liverpool's trip to PSV Eindhoven? That doesn't mean you can't watch the game. Your broadcaster may have geo-restrictions in place but there is a handy solution in the form of a VPN.
A Virtual Private Network - to give it the full name - 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's also great for your internet security.
FourFourTwo’s colleagues TechRadar have tested hundreds of VPNs and they reckon NordVPN is the best VPN provider on the market.

PSV vs Liverpool: Preview
On the face of it, there's not a huge amount of jeopardy to this fixture in the final round of the first phase of the Champions League. Liverpool top the 36-team league and are already assured of automatic qualification to the knockout phase, while PSV look pretty locked into the playoff spots.
However, there's still plenty to play for. Barcelona trail Liverpool by three points, so the Reds still need at least a point if they are to earn the honour of topping the league and the right to play the lowest-ranked qualifying side in the next round. A draw or a win would do that job, although if Barcelona fail to win against Atalanta then Liverpool could lose and still top the group.
It remains to be seen to what extent Liverpool manager Arne Slot rotates his team to deal with a busy fixture schedule. He'll surely be expected to rest a few big names in order to keep them fresh for the weekend's Premier League action and for the rest of the season in general.
PSV, meanwhile, find themselves in 19th place in the league, on 11 points. Only the top eight teams go through automatically, and while it's not mathematically impossible for them to reach the top eight with a win, it's highly unlikely that none of the teams above them will fail to pick up points.
Likewise, looking over their shoulders, only two teams from outside the top 24 (9th - 24th go into a playoff) can catch PSV now. Man City and Dinamo Zagreb could both win but even so the other five teams below PSV would all have to win.
So it's likely PSV will head into the playoffs whatever the result on Wednesday but there's still the incentive of a higher finish earning a more favourable fixture for that occasion.
