Watch Chelsea vs Manchester United from anywhere
Out of the country when Chelsea vs Manchester United is on? That doesn't mean you have to miss the game. A VPN - or Virtual Private Network - means you can set your IP address to make your device appear to be in any country in the world, bypassing streaming geo-restrictions.
Provided it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, you can use a VPN to unblock the streaming services you use back home. It also comes with added internet security benefits, which sounds like a winner to us.
FourFourTwo’s colleagues at Tom's Guide are VPN experts, and they rate NordVPN as the best VPN out there.

Chelsea vs Manchester United: Premier League preview
Both of these teams are laser-focused on earning a place in next season’s Champions League. Chelsea are on the outside looking in at what will now be five qualification places, while United are well positioned after just two losses in 15 games.
Liam Rosenior’s Chelsea have lost their last three matches and four of their last five, albeit during what would be regarded as a tough run of fixtures on paper.
But that’s part of the deal when you’re a Champions League club: you have to win most of those matches too. The Blues need to pick up speed before they run out of runway.

Manchester United will be without defender Harry Maguire, who has been handed an additional one-match suspension after his red card against Bournemouth.
The 33-year-old served his initial ban against Leeds on Monday and will miss tonight's game at Stamford Bridge because of his comments to the fourth official as he left the field.
Lisandro Martinez was sent off against Leeds for pulling Dominic Calvert-Lewin's hair at Old Trafford, a decision that upset Carrick enough to spark some refereeing comments that could land him in hot water too.
Chelsea continue to deal with some absences of their own but there could be a reintegration for Enzo Fernandez, who was also suspended for something he said. In his case, it was his own club that sanctioned him for his views on living in Madrid.
FourFourTwo's prediction
Chelsea 1-2 Manchester United
The Red Devils won 2-1 at Old Trafford and we're backing them to match it in west London.
