Chelsea vs Blackburn: preview 

The Chelsea vs Blackburn live stream sees two teams toiling in mid-table in their respective divisions looking to relieve some frustration with a good cup run. 

Chelsea fell to defeat once again at the weekend with Mauricio Pochettino’s side continuing their struggles to score. If the Blues don’t take their chances in this match, Rovers could well punish them. Amidst an ongoing injury crisis, Chelsea will be boosted by the return of club captain Reece James to the starting XI.

Blackburn’s last match in this competition was an exciting affair, a 5-2 win over Cardiff City. Fans and neutrals alike will be hoping for more of the same. Rovers are undoubtedly the underdogs on the road against the billionaires from West London but they will be determined to give a good account of themselves.

Both sides have some pedigree in this competition and would love to be back in the quarter finals. Chelsea have won it five times, while Blackburn won it back in 2002. 

Want to tune in? Of course you do. Here's how to watch a Chelsea vs Blackburn live stream online from wherever you are in the world.

How to watch Chelsea vs Blackburn live stream from outside your country

We've set out how you can live stream Chelsea vs Blackburn in a number of countries around the world. However, if you're away travelling, you probably won't be able to watch the Carabao Cup game like you normally would at home. This is the result of geo-blocking - best understood as digital borders that restrict certain services and content to specific parts of the world.

A good streaming VPN can let you get around these digital borders, while also offering robust protection from cybercriminals and government snooping. They're also very easy to use.

Can you watch a Chelsea vs Blackburn live stream in the UK?

Sky Sports is the place to tune into this season's Carabao Cup action, but Chelsea vs Blackburn hasn't been selected for broadcast, meaning you can't watch it live in the UK.

Unless you already subscribe to an overseas streaming service that's showing the game, such as beIN Sports or ESPN Plus.

While geo-blocking will prevent you from accessing your go-to stream like you would at home, getting a VPN service will allow you to digitally alter your location, allowing you to watch your preferred coverage without a hitch.
