Netherlands vs Austria live stream, date, time and channels

The Netherlands vs Austria live stream takes place on Tuesday, June 25.
• Time: 5 p.m. BST / 12 p.m. ET / 9 a.m. PT / 2 a.m. AEST (Jun. 26)
• WATCH FREE BBC iPlayer (U.K.)
• U.S. — Watch on FS1 via Sling
• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free

Netherlands come into their final Euro 2024 group stage match at the top of Group D, an unexpected position considering the group also contains France, who boast arguably the strongest squad in the world (not to mention Kylian Mbappé). But the Netherlands proved they can hold their own against the best in a goalless draw with France that arguably should have gone Holland’s way after the controversial decision to disallow a Xavi Simons goal. 

However, Austria aren’t here to play second fiddle, they’ll have plenty of motivation to claim the three points as they’re just a single point behind the Netherlands and still have qualification for the Round of 16 in their sights. Their last result was a convincing 1-3 win over Poland that saw Austria dominate the game and take their chances when presented. 

The Netherlands vs Austria live stream should be a thrilling match, as Group D is one of the most open groups at Euro 2024. You won’t want to miss this one, and we have all the details you need to watch this game online and from anywhere down below. 

Plus, make sure you don’t miss a single moment of the tournament by checking out our guide on how to watch Euro 2024.

Where to watch Netherlands vs Austria for free

In the U.K. football fans can enjoy every moment of Euro 2024 across BBC and ITV. 

Netherlands vs Austria is on BBC watch for free on BBC iPlayer. Just note that you will need a valid U.K. TV license in order to watch. 

Other free-to-air coverage of Euro 2024: Germany (via ZDF and ARD), France (via TF1), Spain (via RTVE) and Italy (via RAI). Soccer fans in New Zealand can also watch Euro 2024 for free via TVNZ.

If you’re normally in one of these countries but happen to be abroad right now, you won’t miss out if you watch using one of the best VPNs. These allow you to watch your go-to streaming wherever in the world you are. Our favorite is NordVPN.

How to watch Netherlands vs Austria from anywhere

If you're not in your home country during Euro 2024 and are unable to live stream a game from wherever you are, you can still tune in via a virtual private network, or VPN. A VPN makes it appear like you're surfing the web from your home allowing you to access the streaming services you already pay for. It's legal and easy to do.

We've tested many different VPN services and our favorite is NordVPN; it offers superb speeds, excellent customer service and a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it out first to see if it's right for you. But you've got other VPN options too, so check out our full list of the best VPN services.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance, if you're in the U.S. and want to view your usual U.K. service, you'd select U.K. from the list.

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to BBC iPlayer and watch Netherlands vs Austria live online.

Soccer fans in the U.S. can watch Euro 2024 across the Fox network, with select games on Fubo. The Netherlands vs Austria live stream is on Fox Sports 1 (FS1) and the Fox Sports website with a valid login. FS1 may be included in your cable package.

If you've cut the cord and don't have cable, you have plenty of options. Our top pick is Sling TV: the Sling Blue package costs just $45 per month with a discounted first month. It comes with more than 30 channels including FOX (if you have a local Fox Network on Sling) and FS1. 

Fubo is another option. The Pro Plan costs $79 per month but gives you 121 channels, including FOX and FS1, plus lots more for sports fans to enjoy. There will be a small handful of five group-stage games exclusively streaming on Fubo making it the best option if you want to watch every single game of Euro 2024 in the U.S.

If you already use those services but aren't in the U.S. right now, you can watch Euro 2024 live streams by using a VPN such as NordVPN.
