How to Watch Nottingham Forest vs. Newcastle Online: Live TV Streaming Services

The Match

Relegation-threatened Forest take on the Champions League-chasing Magpies. This is a match with huge implications for both ends of the table, as struggling Nottingham Forest host a stuttering Newcastle United, battling to keep their Champions League qualification hopes alive. The hosts are on a run of nine games unbeaten at the City Ground, but their wretched away record means they’ve become overly reliant on their home form, placing added pressure on them to get a result here against a strong Newcastle side.

Streaming Services

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

Kickoff Time

Nottingham Forest host Newcastle at the City Ground on Friday, March 17. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. local time in the UK (4 p.m. ET, 1 p.m. PT in the US).

Using a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view the game locally, you may need a different way to watch the game — that’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to stop 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 a Wi-Fi network, and you want to add an extra layer of privacy for your devices and logins.

With a VPN, you’re able to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to get access to the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPN, make it really easy to do this.

Legality of Using a VPN

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 your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even where VPNs are legal, the streaming service may terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.

VPN Recommendations

ExpressVPN is our current best VPN pick for people who want a reliable and safe VPN, and it works on a variety of devices. It’s normally $13 a month, and you can sign up for ExpressVPN and save 49% plus get three months of access for free — the equivalent of $6.67 a month — if you get an annual subscription.

Note that ExpressVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.
