Leicester City v Rennes live stream, BT Sport, Thursday 10 March, 8.00pm GMT

Leicester’s bid for European silverware continues on Thursday with the visit of Rennes in the Europa Conference League last 16.

The Foxes have had a disappointing domestic campaign and are almost certain to miss out on a top six finish in the Premier League, so their best chance of a spot in the 2022/23 Europa League may well be through winning this tournament.

Brendan Rodgers’ side have hit a good run of form recently and go into the first leg against the French visitors on the back of three consecutive victories in all competitions.

After dropping down from the Europa League to the inaugural Conference League, Leicester knocked out Danish side Randers 7-2 on aggregate to set up their last 16 tie. 

They followed that up with Premier League victories over Burnley and Leeds, which saw them register consecutive league wins for the first time since October and keep two clean sheets in a row for the first time since February 2021.

Rennes are enjoying a good season in Ligue 1 and currently sit fourth in the standings, three points behind second-placed Nice.

The French side travel to the King Power full of confidence after a three-match winning run of their own, and held Tottenham to a 2-2 group stage draw back in September.

Kick-off is at 8pm GMT and the game is being shown live on BT Sport ESPN  in the UK.

Use a VPN to watch a Leicester City v Rennes 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 stream that decides to buffer at the worst possible moment. 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:
