Chris, a UK-born media connoisseur, is an expert in watching international TV. Known as "The Global Screen Wanderer", he has travelled extensively across the globe with long stints away from home. With over 10 years of experience he has become the go-to guru for streaming content from home and abroad.
I’m looking at how to watch Fubo.tv abroad as it is fast becoming the leading site for watching top Football games from around the world.
The website is based in the US but regardless of if you call it Football or Soccer we can all agree it is the most entertaining game on the planet.
Unfortunately it’s often the case that watching your favourite teams from the big leagues such as La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1, MLS, Primeira Liga and others are unavailable in your country or if they are available they often come bundled as expensive cable TV packages with a ton of content you don’t want, but are forced to pay for.
Thankfully Fubo.tv have put an end to that and not only do they show La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1, MLS, Primeira Liga, Copa America, CONCACAF Gold Cup, English FA Cup, Champions League, Europa Cup and more but they also have live streams from the TV stations beIN Sports (English & Spanish), Univision Deportes, UniMás, GolTV (English & Spanish), Sport TV Americas, Benfica TV, Everton TV, Borussia Dortmund, AFC Ajax and more!
The great news is all this costs from as little as $9.99 per month which includes all the main channels.
The bad news is the service is only officially available in the United States and Canada but there is a really quick and easy way to sign-up and watch from any country in the world so keep reading and I’ll show you how.
How to watch Fubo.tv abroad
If you visit the Fubo.tv website outside the United States then you’ll see a very limited amount of content. While it’s possible to sign-up and even taken advantage of their 7 day free trial you won’t actually get to see any games. It will look similar to below.
The great news is you can access the full range of content and watch Fubo.tv abroad using a simple service called a VPN. When using a VPN rather than seeing the limited content above you’ll see the following plus more!
You’re probably wondering what a VPN even is and how you can get one so keep reading below and I’ll show you all you need to know.
Where can I get a VPN to access Fubo.tv abroad
A VPN is a completely legal service that protects your online privacy. One of the features of this is it allows you to disguise your online location and appear as if you’re located somewhere else.
Let’s say for example you’re in the United Kingdom, Fubo.tv block you from accessing all their good content. With a VPN you can appear as if you’re in the United States and because of this you’ll be able to access all the quality football content on Fubo.tv.
More good news is VPN services won’t break the bank either and usually cost around US$5-$10 per month allowing you to watch as much Fubo.tv as you want.
Video streaming is a speed heavy task so you need a quality fast VPN provider, if you select a bad one then you will suffer from buffering which isn’t what you want if your team are about to score a goal.
Three VPN providers I’ve tested to watch Fubo.tv abroad that all provide an excellent service are as follows. I personally use ExpressVPN but any of the three below will be suitable.
Once you’ve clicked a link above and signed up just keep reading below and I’ll show you how to use the VPN service to watch Fubo.tv abroad.
How to use the VPN for Fubo.tv
Using a VPN is really simple. Once you’ve signed up to a VPN provider above all you need to do is download their software for your computer or device. It’s possible to use it on an Android or iOS but for the best experience you’ll be better using it on a PC or Mac.
Once you’ve downloaded their software simply select the United States and press connect. The software will now take care of the connection process. Once connected visit the Fubo.tv website and you can sign-up and access all of the content.
Below I’ll show you an example using ExpressVPN on a Windows computer. The Mac software is exactly the same and the other provider’s software is also similar, the process is the same they just have a different layout.
- Visit the ExpressVPN website.
- Sign up for their service.
- Go to the Products section of their website.
- Download and install the correct app for your device.
- Open the app and login or activate it
- Press Selected Location.
- Press United States.
ExpressVPN let’s you watch Fubo TV anywhere.
The ExpressVPN software will now make connection and within about 15 seconds you’ll be set to go.
Once it’s connected just visit the Fubo.tv website and either sign-up or if you’ve already got an account sign in and you can watch as much football (or Soccer) as you want!
