Vikings vs Saints NFL London: Kick-off time, live stream, ticket details and tv channel

The wait for the NFL to return to London is almost over, with the Minnesota Vikings set to take on the New Orleans Saints at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday.

Sunday's game is the first of three matches that will be hosted in London this month, as part of the 2022 International NFL Games. London has housed NFL games since 2007, but this year it's expected to be bigger and better than ever.

With interest at an all-time high, Mirror Sport brings you all the information needed in order to ensure you don't miss out. And there's even still a few tickets knocking about if you fancy attending.

Live stream and kick-off time

For those wanting to tune in, but either cannot attend or simply don't wish to, you can still have the best seat in the house with Sky Sports NFL. (channel 407). Coverage surrounding NFL Sunday will begin in the morning, but the official match coverage will begin at 1:30pm.

The game kick's off at 2:30pm, and is likely to take you nicely into NFL Redzone, which gets underway at 6pm. Due to the game being played earlier as it's being held in England, it'll be the centre of attention all afternoon.

NOW TV customers can purchase a day pass if a Sky Sports subscription is not held. The current cost is £9.99, and this can be used on multiple devices, which means a multi-screen option with the Manchester derby could be utilised.

Ticket details

Although tickets went on sale back in July, there are still a handful of tickets left on the official Ticketmaster site for the game on Sunday. Due to the short supply it's likely that most of these will be single seats, but you may get lucky.

These seats currently range from £32 to £135 before booking fees are applied, and there are limited hospitality packages available for a much steeper price. But with the NFL in London for only one month of the year, it may be worth the hit.

Any other means of purchasing tickets are not advised, as the procedure is now purely digital with extremely strict ticketing rules in place. Those that have already purchased tickets should have received an email containing the virtual tickets, that are to be assigned to a phone wallet.

The clash

2022 marks 15 years since the NFL came to London (NFL)

Both the Vikings and Saints have so far enjoyed a brilliant London experience, as both sides are currently 2-0 on British soil. But with the two now facing one another, the streak will come to an end for one of them.

Of course, that is unless there is a very unlikely draw, but it's expected that one team will remain unbeaten while the other finally experiences defeat in London. The Saints are 1-2 for the season so far, after disappointing performances against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Carolina Panthers.

The Vikings are in better form, boasting a 2-1 record this season, with only Philadelphia Eagles managing to stop them. A stunning 28-24 win over the Detroit Lions last week will boost their confidence ahead of the London clash.
