Real Madrid will aim to keep pressure on league leaders Atlético Madrid on Saturday as they play host to Las Palmas.
Currently in second spot in La Liga, Carlo Ancelotti’s men put their recent Spanish Super Cup final humiliation behind them with a 5-2 Copa Del Rey win over Celta Vigo in midweek.
They face a Las Palmas team currently in 14th spot, with the Canarians having won eight of their 13 matches since Diego Martínez replaced Luis Carrión as head coach back in October.
Real Madrid take on Las Palmas at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu on Sunday, Jan. 19. Kickoff is set for 4:15 p.m. CET local time, making it a 10:15 a.m. ET and 7:15 a.m. PT start in the US, a 3:15 p.m. GMT start in the UK and a 2:15 a.m. AEDT Monday kickoff in Australia.
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.

How to watch La Liga from anywhere with a VPN
If you find yourself unable to view La Liga matches locally, you may need a different way to watch the games — 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.

ExpressVPN is our current best VPN pick for people who want a reliable and safe VPN, and it works on a variety of devices. It’s normally $13 a month, but if you sign up for an annual subscription for $100 you’ll get three months free and save 49%. That’s the equivalent of $6.67 a month.
