SAVE 49%: ExpressVPN is the best service for unblocking ITVX from anywhere in the world. A one-year subscription to ExpressVPN(Opens in a new tab) is on sale for £85.52 and includes an extra three months for free — 49% off for a limited time.


The Six Nations is back this weekend with some huge fixtures that could decide who eventually wins the competition.

That's definitely the case with this weekend's battle between England and France. You can watch this massive match-up on ITV (or ITVX) in the UK. If you're based outside the UK, you will need to use a VPN to livestream ITVX from anywhere in the world.

When is England vs France?

England and France will meet at Twickenham Stadium this weekend:

England vs France (ITV) — 4:45 p.m. GMT on March 11

The game will be shown live on ITV1, or you can livestream the fixture on ITVX.

How can you livestream England vs France from abroad?

Try and connect to ITVX from outside the UK and just see what happens. You'll be quickly blocked by ITVX as this streaming platform will recognise your location and restrict your access. That means you'll need a VPN to stream the Six Nations for free from outside the UK.

VPNs can hide your real IP address and connect you to a secure server in the UK. This process is quick and easy, and tricks sites like ITVX into thinking you are based in the UK. All you need to do is sign up to a VPN, download the app, connect to a UK-based server, and then head to ITVX to watch England and France.

What is the best VPN for ITVX?

ExpressVPN(Opens in a new tab) is the best service for unblocking streaming sites like ITVX. Subscribers get strong connection speeds, powerful levels of encryption, a built-in password manager, and fast servers in 94 countries.

A one-year subscription to ExpressVPN(Opens in a new tab) is on sale for £85.52 and includes an extra three months for free — 49% off for a limited time. This discounted plan also includes a year of free unlimited cloud backup and a pretty generous 30-day money-back guarantee.
