Manchester United v Istanbul Basaksehir live stream: how to watch the Champions League wherever you are in the world
Watch a Manchester United v Istanbul Basaksehir live stream, as the Red Devils look for revenge against the Turkish champions
Manchester United v Istanbul Basaksehir live stream, BT Sport, Tuesday 24 November, 8.00pm GMT
Manchester United will be looking for revenge against Istanbul Basaksehir on Tuesday after failing to an embarrassing defeat against the Turkish side earlier this month.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side began their Champions League campaign in impressive fashion by beating the two sides considered to be their likeliest rivals to win Group H, PSG and RB Leipzig.
But they conceded a disastrous opening goal to former Chelsea and Newcastle striker Demba Ba in a 2-1 defeat in Turkey.
The Champions League debutants went 2-0 up in the first half before Luke Shaw pulled one back on the brink of half time, but the Red Devils didn’t do enough in the second half to salvage a result.
It was the first goal and points Basaksehir have recorded in the competition and they will be hungry for a repeat of their heroics when they visit Old Trafford.
United are still top of Group H, ahead of Leipzig on goal difference, but there are only three points between top and bottom in a tightly-knit section.
Kick-off is at 8.00pm GMT and the game is being shown on BT Sport 2 and BT Sport Ultimate in the UK. See below for watching details where you are.

Use a VPN to watch Manchester United v Istanbul Basaksehir live stream from outside your country
We know, we know, this has crept up on you a bit. So what if you’ve organised a quick winter break and you’re out of the country for the first Champions League week of the season?
We can help. If you’re out of the country for this round of Champions League fixtures, then annoyingly your domestic on-demand services won’t work – the broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address, and you’ll be blocked from watching.
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:
1. ExpressVPN (inc. 30-day, money-back guarantee)
The recommended VPN of choice. FourFourTwo’s brainy pals TechRadar love ExpressVPN's lightning-quick connections, security you can trust, and the fact it works with Android, Apple, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, PS4 plus plenty more. It also comes with that money-back guarantee, has 24/7 support, is currently available for a 49% discount and with three months FREE. Grand.
2. Nord VPN (inc. 30-day, money-back guarantee)
A cheaper option; its cheapest package current averages at a titchy £2.29 per month.
3. IPVanish (inc. seven-day money-back guarantee)
Slightly more expensive but supports up to 10 devices, and you can pay up your hard-earned every three months if required.
