France will look to make it two wins from two in League A Group 2 as they head to Hungary to take on Israel in this UEFA Nations League match.
Due to the conflict in the Middle East, this home fixture for Israel has been rearranged to take place in the neutral venue of the Bozsik Aréna in Budapest. The Israelis crashed to a heavy 3-1 defeat to Belgium in their campaign opener, before going down to a 2-1 loss to Italy in their last game.
The French, meanwhile, also lost to Italy in their first game, before bouncing back in style with a 2-0 win over neighbors Belgium in their second. With Antoine Griezmann now retired from international football and captain Kylian Mbappé unavailable due to injury, the French attack looks likely to be spearheaded by Inter Milan’s Marcus Thuram.
Israel host France at the Bozsik Aréna in Budapest on Thursday, Oct. 10. Kickoff is set for 8:45 p.m. CEST local time in Hungary. That makes it a 7:45 p.m. BST start in the UK, which is 2:45 p.m. ET or 11:45 a.m. PT in the US and Canada, and 4:45 a.m. AEST on Friday, Oct. 11 in Australia.
Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game live wherever you are in the world.

Livestream the Italy vs. Belgium match in the US
Today’s game is on Fubo Sports Network, the streaming platform’s dedicated sports service.
There’s a lot to like about Fubo. In addition to its own Fubo Sports Network, it offers a wide selection of channels, plus its sports focus makes it especially attractive to soccer 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, since it’s one of three services, alongside YouTube TV and Hulu, 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 carry a lot of sports content, in particular NBA, NHL and MLB. Those missing channels, and the $80 price tag, makes it less attractive than YouTube TV for most viewers. Read our Fubo review.
How to watch the Italy vs. Belgium match online from anywhere using a VPN
If you find yourself unable to view this Nations League fixture locally, you may need a different way to watch the match — 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.
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.
