How can I watch Italy v Chile if I’m away from home?

When you’re working out what to pack on your next overseas jaunt, a VPN (or Virtual Private Network) should be near the top of your list.
While geo-restrictions can prevent you from watching your usual streaming services when you’re abroad, a VPN has the handy ability to change the IP address of your device. This means that your smartphone, tablet or laptop can appear to be back in your home country, even if you’re on an adventure on the other side of the world. That’s not all these miraculous pieces of kit can do, either, because they’re a godsend for improving your online security – great for peace of mind when you’re using an unfamiliar internet connection.

The technology experts at TechRadar and Tom’s Guide rate NordVPN as the best on the market, thanks to its top-of-the-table streaming and security features. You also get the peace of mind of a 30-day money-back guarantee, and a great deal for Black Friday…

Italy v Chile preview

Italy usually spend the Autumn Nations Series playing matches they’re expected to lose, picking up the odd victory – such as their win over Australia a fortnight ago – where they can. On Saturday, however, they’ll be the overwhelming favourites when Chile come to town.

Like the Azzurri, Chile will be in the World Cup draw on 2 December, though they’re eight places behind the hosts in the world rankings. They lost all four of their games in France, coming bottom in a group topped by England and Argentina, but will surely be relishing the opportunity to visit one of Europe’s big guns.

Italy head coach Gonzalo Quesada has made 10 changes to the starting XV that lost to South Africa last week, and welcomes captain Michele Lamaro back to the back row. Northampton Saints’ teen sensation Edoardo Todaro is in line to make his debut from the bench.
