Chelsea v Salzburg live stream, Wednesday 14 September, 8.00pm

Looking for a Chelsea v Salzburg live stream? We've got you covered. 

Graham Potter will make his debut as Chelsea boss when the Blues look to get their Champions League campaign back on track with the visit of Salzburg on Wednesday.

It has been a tumultuous week at Stamford Bridge since a shock 1-0 defeat to Dinamo Zagreb in Croatia last Tuesday.

Manager Thomas Tuchel was sacked a day later, and Potter quickly left Brighton to be named as the German’s successor.

The English boss has had a few more days than expected to prepare for his debut, as Saturday’s Premier League clash with Fulham was postponed following the death of the Queen.

There is all to play for in Group E after the first week of results, as Dinamo went top following Salzburg’s 1-1 draw against AC Milan.

Noah Okafor gave the Austrians the lead in that game, but Alexis Saelemaekers struck back for the Italian champions before half time.

Potter will be looking to get off to a strong start with his new squad, which was bolstered this summer with more than £250 million worth of new signings.

Chelsea had a sluggish start under Tuchel, picking up 10 points from their opening six Premier League games and suffering defeats at Leeds and Southampton.

Salzburg, meanwhile, are in strong form domestically, winning seven of their eight Austrian Bundesliga games so far to open up a three-point lead at the top of the table.

The match is on Wednesday 14 September and kicks off at 8.00pm. It will be shown on BT Sport 3.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch Champions League football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a round of Premier League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!). You'll be blocked from watching it, which is not ideal if you’ve paid up for a subscription and still want to catch the action without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

But assistance is on hand. To get around that, all you have to do is get a Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and won't automatically block the service you've paid for. All the info going between is entirely encrypted – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there, including:
