Subscribe to the Premier Player to watch Premier Sports, subscribe to LaLigaTV via Premier Sports or Amazon Prime Video to watch LaLigaTV, and watch ITVX, the streaming platform of the free-to-air network ITV, to access every available LaLiga match of the season, all via live streaming, on all major devices.

Can You Watch LaLiga Using a VPN? 

Fans could also consider using a Virtual Private Network (VPN) to access LaLiga live streams from other providers around the world, who may be cheaper than Premier Sports or LaLigaTV.

For example, LaLiga matches are available in Morocco at a much cheaper price than the UK on beIN SPORTS. By subscribing to TOD, the beIN SPORTS live streaming platform, fans could watch games on that using a VPN, and pay a much smaller subscription price than they do for Premier Sports or LaLigaTV in the UK.

Assuming you have checked the rules and regulations regarding VPNs where you are, and done your due diligence regarding the best VPN to go with, there’s little stopping you from accessing these LaLiga live streams on platforms from around the world.

However, the UK is already one of the cheapest countries for watching LaLiga according to our LaLiga Price Index.
