Ligue 1 Football: PSG vs. Live Stream Nantes, anywhere
Runaway Ligue 1 leaders Paris Saint-Germain welcome Nantes to the Parc des Princes on Saturday as the hosts look to bounce back from another disappointing midweek performance in Europe.
Six points clear at the top of the table after a 3-0 home win over Toulouse last week, manager Luis Enrique is nonetheless under pressure after a 1-0 defeat to Bayern Munich in the UCL on Tuesday with the Parisians appearing unable to translate their excellent domestic form in Europe.
They now find themselves facing Nantes, who is in a real state of disarray. Without a win in the last nine and currently in the bottom three, last weekend’s 2-0 defeat at home to fellow strugglers Le Havre led to a pitch invasion from their own supporters in protest at their worrying decline.
PSG will take on Nantes at the Parc des Princes on Saturday, November 30, with kick-off 9 pm CET local time in Paris, making it a 8:00 PM GMT starts in Great BritainA 3:00 PM ET or 12:00 PM PT start in the US and Canada, and a 7am AEDT Kick-off in Australia early on Sunday morning.
Below we list the best live TV streaming services use to view game lives wherever you are in the world.
How PSG vs. Nantes in the US without watching cable
Friday’s match will be shown live on BeIN Sports, which has the broadcast rights to Ligue 1 matches in the US.
There are various options to view BeIN. Several cable and satellite TV providers in the US offer the network as part of their channel offerings, including Dish Network, Optimum, and Spectrum (the latter requiring $7 per month for the Sports View add-on).
If you’re a cord cutter, there are a whole host of streaming platforms that offer BeIN Sports.
With an excellent channel selection, easy-to-use interface, and the best-in-class cloud DVR, the $73 per month YouTube TV is one of the best cable TV replacements. To watch BeIN Sports on the platform, you’ll need the Sports Plus add-on, which costs an additional $11 per month. Read our YouTube TV review.
BeIN is available on Sling TV as part of the Sports Extra add-on for Sling Orange or Sling Blue.
The Orange and Blue packages start at $40 per month, and you can combine them for a monthly rate of $55 ($60 in some regions), while Sports Extra costs an additional $11 per month. The Orange option gives you one stream, while Blue gives you three. It’s not as comprehensive or as easy to navigate as YouTube, but with a little work, including adding an antenna or an AirTV 2 DVR, it’s an unbeatable value. We also add that the service offers local channels like ABC and CBS in some regions where the monthly rate is $45. Read our Sling TV review.
There’s a lot to like about Fubo. In addition to BeIN Sports, it offers a wide selection of channels, and its focus on sports makes it especially attractive to football fans, as well as NBA, NHL and MLB fans who live in an area served by one of Fubo’s RSNs. It’s also a great choice for NFL fans because, along with YouTube TV and Hulu, it’s one of three services that offer NFL Network and optional RedZone. The biggest hole in Fubo’s lineup is the lack of Warner Bros. Discovery networks, including HGTV, Food Network, Cartoon Network, CNN, TNT and TBS – especially since the latter two offer a lot of sports content, especially NBA, NHL and MLB. Those missing channels and the $80 price tag make it less attractive than YouTube TV for most viewers. Read our Fubo review.
On top of this, BeIN Sports Connect is the network’s standalone streaming platform. You can log in with your cable or streaming service details if your provider has BeIN in the package. This allows you to stream live matches and other programming on various devices (smartphones, tablets, laptops and so on).
Be sure to check if BeIN Sports is included in the specific package or plan you are considering, as it may be part of a sports bundle or require an additional subscription.
How to watch Ligue 1 from anywhere with a VPN
If you find that you can’t watch Ligue 1 matches locally, you may need another way to watch the matches. That’s where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to prevent your ISP from throttling your speed on game day by encrypting your traffic, and it’s also a good 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 can virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to access the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice, ExpressVPN, make it very easy to do this.
Using a VPN to watch or stream sports is legal in every 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’ll want to make sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: even if VPNs are legal, the streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing properly applied blackout restrictions.

ExpressVPN is currently our top VPN pick for people who want a reliable and secure VPN, and it works across devices. It normally costs $13 per month, but if you sign up for a $100 annual subscription you get three months free and save 49%. That’s the equivalent of $6.67 per month with code SPECIAL OFFERwhich should be applied automatically.
Please note that ExpressVPN offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Fubo is the destination for Canadians looking to watch the Ligue 1 season, with exclusive streaming rights to every match on Sunday. It costs CA$30 per month, but you can save some money by paying quarterly or annually.

French football fans can now watch every Ligue 1 match live on the Ligue 1 Pass streaming service.

If you subscribe to a foreign streaming service that broadcasts the game, such as Fubo, a VPN service will allow you to change your online location so you can watch your domestic coverage.
Quick tips for streaming Ligue 1 football with a VPN
- With four variables at play (your ISP, browser, video streaming provider, and VPN), your experiences and success streaming EPL matches may vary.
- If you don’t see the location you want as the default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “search for city or country” option.
- If you’re having trouble downloading the game after turning on your VPN and setting it to the correct viewing area, you can try two things to quickly resolve this. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is one in the correct display area. If not, you may need to change the physical address registered to your account. Second, some smart TVs (like Roku) don’t have VPN apps that you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll need to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you use (like your phone) so that every device on the 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 may be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your registered email address for your Smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help as both devices appear to be in the right location.
- Keep in mind that browsers can often reveal a location despite using a VPN, so make sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
