Quick tips for streaming the Carabao Cup using a VPN
Manchester United face an unglamorous road trip on Wednesday as they travel to the north east of England to play fourth-tier Grimsby Town in this second-round Carabao Cup tie.
Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services for watching EFL Cup games as they happen, wherever you are in the world, and how to use a VPN if it's not available where you are.
Ruben Amorim's Red Devils really need a positive result in this cup clash. They've made a winless start to the new English Premier League season, losing their opening game 1-0 at home to Arsenal, then being held to a 1-1 stalemate at Fulham on Sunday.
David Artwell's Grimsby, meanwhile, come into this game in promising form having made an unbeaten start to their EFL League Two campaign. The Mariners set up today's fixture after beating Shrewsbury 3-1 in the first round.
This Carabao Cup tie between Grimsby Town and Man United takes place at Blundell Park on Wednesday, Aug. 27. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. BST local time in the UK, which is 3 p.m. ET or 12 p.m. PT in the US, and 5 a.m. AEST on Thursday morning in Australia.

How to watch the Grimsby Town vs. Man United EFL Cup match online from anywhere using a VPN
If you're traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the soccer action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming.
It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds. It can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security.
However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you're considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform's terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider's installation instructions, ensuring you're connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN use is crucial.

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 match 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 in to 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, because 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.
