The 2024/25 Europa League continues on Thursday December 12, and while there are plenty of big fixtures to watch, you might just fancy a bit of free football in the form of Slavia Prague vs Anderlecht.
• Date: Thursday, December 12, 2024
• Kick-off time: 8.00pm GMT / 3pm ET
• Venue: Fortuna Arena, Prague
• FREE Stream: RTBF (Belgium)
• TV channels: TNT Sports, Discovery+ (UK) / Paramount+ (US)
• Watch from anywhere: Try NordVPN risk-free
For those in Belgium, or Belgians currently outside the country, the game is being shown free-to-air on RTBF. There are also pay-TV options in the UK, US, and beyond, plus the ability to watch from anywhere with a VPN.
Anderlecht could make a big stride towards automatic qualification after a strong, unbeaten start in the Europa League. The Belgian side sit fifth after five of the eight match weeks, in a strong position to grab one of the eight automatic spots for progression to the next round, and certainly among the next 16 who'd contest a play-off.
Slavia Prague, meanwhile, are fighting for their survival in the competition. They currently sit 26th of the 36 teams and while it's not all-or-nothing at this point, another defeat would give them a lot of work to do in their final two fixtures.

How to watch Slavia Prague vs Anderlecht from anywhere
If you're away travelling, you'll likely find your usual streaming service is geo-restricted. All, however, is not lost. You can still watch the game, by using a VPN.
A Virtual Private Network - to give it the full name - is a piece of software that can make your device appear to be in any country in the world.
Provided it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, you can use a VPN to unblock the streaming services you subscribe to, and it also comes with cyber-security benefits, too
FourFourTwo’s brainy colleagues TechRadar know a thing or two about VPNs, and they reckon NordVPN is the best VPN provider out there at the moment.
