Rayo Vallecano welcome city rivals Real Madrid to the Vallecas Stadium on Saturday in what looks to be a crucial La Liga fixture.

With league leaders Barcelona playing tomorrow, Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid side have a chance to go top of La Liga with a win.

Los Blancos, however, have been rather inconsistent in recent weeks and have a historically poor record at the home ground of Paradise.

Rayo Vallecano play Real Madrid at the Estadio de Vallecas on Saturday, December 14. The start is scheduled for 21:00 CET local time, making it a 3:00 PM ET and 12:00 PM PT start in the US, a 20:00 GMT start in the UK and a 7am AEDT Sunday start in Australia.

We’ll list the best below live TV streaming services to use to watch the game as it happens, wherever you are in the world.

How to watch La Liga from anywhere with a VPN

If you find you can’t watch La Liga games locally, you may need a different way of watching the games – that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to prevent 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 Wi-Fi and want to add an 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 this easy.

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 make sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: even where VPNs are legal, a streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing properly enforced blackout restrictions.

Quick tips for streaming La Liga using a VPN

  • With four variables in play – your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN – your experience and success when streaming La Liga matches can 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 downloading the game after you’ve turned on the VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try to fix quickly. 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 record for your account. Second, some smart TVs — like the Roku — don’t have VPN apps that you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll need to install a VPN on the router or mobile hotspot you’re using (such as a 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 website for quickly installing a VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install the cable network’s sports app, you will be asked to verify a numeric code or click on a link sent to your email address on record 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 exact location.
  • Remember, browsers can often give away your location despite using a VPN, so make sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to sign in to their services. We usually recommend Bravely.
