After a week of cup wins, Barcelona will look to carry that form over to the league when they face Getafe in La Liga on Saturday.
Hansi Flick’s side followed up their brilliant win over Real Madrid in last weekend’s Spanish Super Cup with a routine 5-1 win over Real Betis in the Copa Del Rey on Wednesday. Now attention turns back to the struggling La Liga season, with Barça currently in third place after two defeats against Leganes and Atlético, 6 points behind leaders Atlético Madrid.
They face a Getafe side who are currently just 3 points outside the relegation zone in 15th place. Despite boasting the league’s third-best defensive record, José Bordalás’ men have struggled to score this season. In their 19 games so far, they have only found the net 13 times.
Getafe will face Barcelona at the Estadio Coliseum on Saturday January 18th. Kickoff is scheduled 9 p.m. CET local time, making it one 3:00 p.m. ET and 12:00 p.m. PT Launch in the USA, a 20:00 GMT Launching in the UK and a 7am AEDT Sunday start in Australia.

Here’s how to watch La Liga from anywhere with a VPN
If you can’t watch La Liga games locally, you may need another way to watch the games – this is where using a VPN can come in handy. A VPN is also the best way to prevent your ISP from throttling your speeds on game day by encrypting your traffic. It’s also a good idea if you’re traveling and connected to a Wi-Fi network and want to add some extra privacy to your devices and logins.
A VPN allows you to virtually change your location on your phone, tablet or laptop to gain access to the game. Most VPNs, like our Editors’ Choice ExpressVPN, make this really easy.
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 are streaming. You should make sure your VPN is set up correctly to prevent leaks: Even if VPNs are legal, the streaming service can terminate the account of anyone it deems to be circumventing correctly applied blackout restrictions.

Quick tips for streaming La Liga via a VPN
- With four variables at play – your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN – your experience and success streaming La Liga matches may vary.
- If you don’t see your desired location as the default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “Search by city or country” option.
- If you’re having trouble receiving the game after turning on your VPN and setting it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log in to your streaming service subscription account and ensure that the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing range. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file in your account. Second, some smart TVs – like Roku – don’t have VPN apps that you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll need to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you use (such as your phone) so that every 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 page 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 may be asked to confirm a numeric code or click a link that is sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. A VPN on your router also helps here, as both devices appear to be in the correct location.
- Keep in mind that browsers can often reveal a location despite using a VPN. Therefore, make sure you use a privacy-focused browser to log in to your services. We usually recommend Brave.
