Celtic vs Aberdeen live stream: how to watch the Scottish Cup wherever you are in the world

Celtic vs Aberdeen live stream, Premier Sports 1, Sunday 1 November, 2.30pm GMT

Fresh off the back of a two-goal collapse in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday night, Celtic are back in action - and it promises to be another nail-biting affair. The Scottish Cup semi-final sees the record winners face Aberdeen for a spot in the final.

The Bhoys have been in decent form so far this season. They're sitting second in the Scottish top-flight, with eight wins from their opening 11 matches, yet there remains an edgy feel to their season, with a tenth straight league title in jeopardy. City neighbours Rangers are sitting pretty at the top of the table, following their 2-0 away win in the Old Firm Derby two weekends ago. Could Celtic's iron-grip on Scottish football be relaxing? 

Aberdeen will be looking to provide further evidence that this may not be the glittering season Celtic fans had been dreaming of. Derek McInness' side have started the season brightly, and currently sit fourth in the domestic standings. 

These teams drew 3-3 at Celtic Park last weekend, leaving fans excited for a cup clash in which there can only be one winner. The high scoreline suggests plenty more goals may be in the offing. This is not a game you'll want to miss over the weekend. 

Kick-off is at 2.30pm GMT and the game is being shown on Premier Sports 1 in the UK. See below for watching details where you are.

Use a VPN to watch a Celtic vs Aberdeen live stream from outside your country

If you’re on holiday or just simply out of the country, your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows exactly where you are from your IP address. Your access to the game will be automatically blocked, which is annoying if you’ve paid a subscription fee and don't want to use an illegal, buffering stream that makes you miss another Jamie Vardy goal. And that's where we recommend ExpressVPN (more on which below). 

All you need to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to get beyond such aggravations (assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs). A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, meaning suppliers can’t work out where you are and what you’re doing. The info going to and from is entirely encrypted.

There are plenty of options out there, including: 

FourFourTwo’s brainy office mates TechRadar love its super speedy connections, trustworthy security and the fact it works with Android, Apple, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, PS4 and loads more. You also get a money-back guarantee, 24/7 support and it's currently available for a knockdown price. Go get it! 

A cheaper option; its cheapest package current averages at a wallet-friendly £2.29 per month.

Slightly more expensive but supports up to 10 devices, and you can pay for it every three months if you need to.
