With a top four finish in the English Premier League looking unlikely, the Blues will be looking at cup success as a means of qualifying for Europe next season, and come into this semifinal as strong favorites.

Tuesday’s match marks Middlesbrough’s first appearance in a League Cup semifinal since their victorious 2003-04 campaign. Bossed by former West Ham and Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick, Boro are currently in midtable after a poor start to the season, but have won three of their last five games. 

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

Quick tips for streaming the Carabao Cup using a VPN 

  • With four variables at play — your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming this cup clash 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.
