Who will come out on top in the Bavarian derby?

The Bundesliga returns to action from the International break with the Bavarian derby as league leaders Bayern Munich host mid-table Augsburg on Friday.

Bayern currently boast a five-point lead over second place RB Leipzig in the title race, but headed into the break off of an unconvincing 1-0 victory over struggling St. Pauli. 

Augsburg struggled for consistency at the start of the campaign, but their goalless draw against Hoffenheim last time out means they've beaten just once in their last six matches across all competitions. 

Bayern Munich host Augsburg at the Allianz Arena on Friday, Nov. 22. Kickoff is set for 8:30 p.m. CET local time in Germany, making it a 2:30 p.m. ET or 11:30 a.m. PT start in the US, a 7:30 p.m. GMT start in the UK and a 6:30 a.m. AEDT kickoff in Australia in the early on Saturday morning. 

Below, we'll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch Bundesliga soccer live, wherever you are in the world.

Jamal Musiala's long range strike was enough for Bayern Munich to claim a 0-1 away win against St Pauli last time out.

How to watch the Bundesliga from anywhere with a VPN

If you find yourself unable to view Bundesliga 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.

Quick tips for streaming the Bundesliga using a VPN With four variables at play -- your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN -- your experience and success when streaming Bundesliga matches may vary.If you don't see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the "search for city or country" option.If you're having trouble getting the game after you've turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs -- like Roku -- don't have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you'll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you're using (like your phone) so that any 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 site 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'll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location. And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you're using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
