Italy can guarantee itself a place in the FIFA World Cup 2026 qualifier playoffs if it claims a point today against an Israel team that still harbors faint hopes of reaching next summer’s tournament.
Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game as it happens, wherever you are in the world, and how to use a VPN if the match isn’t available where you are.
This matchup comes just a month after these two teams played out an entertaining nine-goal clash in the neutral setting of the Nagyerdei Stadion in Hungary. Italy eventually prevailed in the bad-tempered match, 5-4, thanks to a dramatic stoppage-time winner from Sandro Tonali.
The Italians come into this game off the back of a comfortable 3-1 away win against Estonia at the weekend, while Israel suffered a 5-0 annihilation at the hands of Norway in Oslo on Saturday.
With an Erling Haaland-led Norway 6 points clear at the top of Group I and with a seemingly unassailable goal difference thanks to an 11-1 hammering of Moldova back in September, Italy’s only real hope for qualification comes through the back door of the playoffs.
Italy takes on Israel at the Stadio Friuli in Udine on Tuesday, Oct. 14. Kickoff is set for 8:45 p.m. CEST local time in Italy. That makes it a 7:45 p.m. BST start in the UK. In the US and Canada it’s a 2:45 p.m. ET or 11:45 a.m. PT start, while for viewers in Australia, the game gets underway at 5:45 a.m. AEDT on Wednesday morning.

How to watch the Italy vs. Israel match online from anywhere using a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the World Cup qualifier 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, and 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 usage 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 usage is crucial.

Quick tips for streaming international soccer using a VPN
- With four variables at play — your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming soccer 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 into 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, since 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.
