Manchester United need to dust themselves down after a humiliating day on Merseyside and switch their focus to the Europa League ahead of the visit of Real Betis.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Europa League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a Europa League fixture, then you won’t be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t’internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that’s a result.
