Pep Guardiola’s reigning champions head to Atlanta to take on the UAE Pro League team.

Manchester City will look to maintain a winning start to Group G as it takes on an Al Ain team looking to regroup after suffering a nightmare opening result. 

Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to watch every match of the tournament as it happens, wherever you are in the world. We’ll also explain how to use a VPN if the match isn’t available where you are, along with a full match list. 

Pep Guardiola’s men kicked off their campaign with a convincing 2-0 win over Morocco’s Wydad Casablanca on Wednesday, with goals from Phil Foden and Jérémy Doku — and a late red card for young defender Rico Lewis. 

Al Ain, meanwhile, head into this fixture low on confidence after a heavy 5-0 defeat to Juventus at Audi Field — a result that exposed defensive vulnerabilities and left the Emirati side on the brink of an early exit from the tournament. 

Manchester City takes on Al Ain on Sunday, June 22, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. Kickoff is set for 9 p.m. ET or 6 p.m. PT. That makes it a 2 a.m. BST start in the UK and an 11 a.m. AEST kickoff in Australia on Monday morning.

The great news for footy fans is that sports streaming platform DAZN is set to broadcast all 63 matches of the FIFA Club World Cup free in almost every country, with coverage available in multiple languages.

How to watch Man City vs. Al Ain online from anywhere using a VPN

If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the FIFA Club World Cup soccer action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. 

It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds. It can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. 

However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance. 

If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions, ensuring you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN use is crucial.

Quick tips for streaming the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 soccer using a VPN 

• With four variables at play — your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming soccer 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 in to 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, because 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.
