Watch UEFA Nations League Soccer: Livestream Spain vs. Italy ...

European big guns Spain and Italy face off in this intriguing Nations League semifinal, with a showdown against Croatia in Sunday's final awaiting the winner.

Spain have reached the last-four stage of UEFA's secondary international competition after winning Group A2, which included Portugal, Switzerland and the Czech Republic, with this match only the third game in charge for new boss Luis de la Fuente.

Roberto Mancini's Azzurri have reached the semifinals after finishing top of a tricky Group A3 that included Hungary, Germany and England. Having missed out on qualification for last year's World Cup in Qatar, Italy will be determined to make amends by winning this tournament. 

The two teams come into this clash with indifferent recent form, having both recorded a win and a loss during the March international window.

Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game live wherever you are in the world.

How to watch the Spain vs. Italy game online from anywhere using a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view the game locally, you may need a different way to watch the game -- that's where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it's also a great idea if you're traveling and find yourself connected to a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.

With a VPN, you're able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. So if your internet provider or mobile carrier has stuck you with an IP address that incorrectly shows your location in a blackout zone, a VPN can correct that problem by giving you an IP address in your correct, nonblackout area. Most VPNs, like our Editors' Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.

Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in any country where VPNs are legal, including the US, UK and Canada, as long as you have a legitimate subscription to the service you're streaming. You should be sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.

Quick tips for streaming the UEFA Nations League using a VPN With four variables at play -- your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN -- your experience and success when streaming Nations League matches may vary.If you don't see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the "search for city or country" option.If you're having trouble getting the game after you've turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs -- like Roku -- don't have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you'll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you're using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network's sports app, you'll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location. And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you're using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
