Attempting to watch sport when you’re away from home can feel like a slog, but it’s actually a lot more simple that you think. Not convinced? We’ll walk you through the process.

Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk will do battle for the second time on Aug. 20, with the boxing match expected to take place at around 10:30 p.m. BST in Saudi Arabia. The fight is available to watch on Sky Sports Box Office in the UK or DAZN in the U.S. and elsewhere else. That’s all well and good, but what if you’re travelling away from home when the big fight takes place?

You will have no problem purchasing the PPV event or signing up to DAZN when you’re abroad, but the problems will begin when you get home. Sky Sports Box Office and DAZN geo-blocks your access outside the country you registered in, so you wouldn’t be able to use the services when you get back home. Don’t panic, because you can get around the annoyance with a VPN.

With a streaming-friendly service like ExpressVPN, you can connect to a secure server back home before you purchase the fight or subscribe to DAZN. The process is quick and easy with ExpressVPN. All you need to do is sign up to the service, connect to a server in the location of your choosing, and log in to Sky Sports or DAZN. It takes just a few clicks.

A one-year subscription to ExpressVPN is on sale for £85.53, saving you 49% on list price. This annual plan includes an extra three months of coverage and a year of unlimited cloud backup from Backblaze for free. Subscribers also get a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can recover your cash if you’re not totally satisfied. You didn’t hear this from us, but you could even sign up, watch the fight, and then make the most of the guarantee. Sneaky, we know.
