Liverpool will look to maintain their pursuit of an unprecedented frame on Saturday as their FA Cup campaign gets underway at Anfield against fourth-tier Accrington Stanley.
Currently sitting pretty high in the English Premier League and still very much in contention in both the UEFA Champions League and the EFL Cup, Arne Slot’s men will be hoping to win a tournament they last won in 2022.
They face an Accrington side who are just 86 places below their hosts in the English football league system, with the visitors currently struggling in 19th position in EFL League Two.
Below, we will describe the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game live, wherever you are in the world.

How to watch the Liverpool vs Accrington Stanley game online from anywhere with a VPN
If you find yourself unable to watch EPL matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the games – this is where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to prevent your ISP from throttling your speed 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 want to add a extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.
With a VPN, you can virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to access the game. 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 that your VPN is configured correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it believes is circumventing properly enforced blackout restrictions.

Quick tips for streaming the FA Cup with a VPN
- With four variables at play – your ISP, your browser, video streaming provider and VPN – your experience and success in streaming FA Cup matches may vary.
- If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “search by city or country” option.
- If you’re having trouble getting the game after you’ve activated your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log in to 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 that you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you will have to install the VPN on your router or mobile hotspot that you use (such as your phone) so that any device in its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct display location.
- All VPN providers recommend having useful instructions on their main site to quickly install the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after installing the sports app of a cable network, you will be asked to verify a numerical code or click a link sent to your email address in the file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, as both devices will appear to be in the correct location.
- And remember, browsers can often give you a location despite using a VPN, so make sure you use a privacy-first browser to access your services. We usually recommend it brave.
