The UEFA Europa League is back with a bang. There are 32 teams left in the competition and tonight it's Arsenal vs Olympiacos. Below, you'll find all the information on how to watch a Arsenal vs Olympiacos live stream in top quality wherever you are.

Arsenal have a slim but significant 1-0 lead as they host Olympiacos at the Emirates but the Greek side have lost 10 of their last 11 European away fixtures which makes things sound fairly rosy. All the same the Gooners will have to do it without defender Sead Kolasinac but Europa League secret weapon Bukayo Saka will fill in nicely. The left-sided player has the most assists in the competition so far with five.

Alexandre Lacazette was rested at the weekend for Arsenal's victory against Everton and the Frenchman should be raring to go. The Greek side will be wary given the striker's winner in the previous game. Doubtless veteran player Mathieu Valbuena will be running his socks off all night to put Mikel Arteta's team off their game.

There are no new rules for the knock-out stages. If teams are tied on aggregate score after the final whistle of the second leg, then the team with more away goals goes through.

Should away goals be equal at that stage, then the game goes to extra time. If the aggregate score and away goals are still equal at the of extra time, then a penalty shoot-out ensues. VAR will be used throughout the tournament.

Watch Arsenal vs Olympiacos anywhere in the world using a VPN

We'll look at the TV and live stream options for UK and USA-based Europa League fans below, but even after spending all that money on a TV sports subscription you're still not going to be able to watch the football from another country.

There are certain territories where the Europa League football is free to watch (you can find a full list of the free Europa League broadcasters here, along with the pay channels too). So, if you're away in one of these places, you may just need to tune in on your hotel TV or find a local bar.

Anywhere else and you'll want to get yourself a VPN instead. A VPN (Virtual Private Network) can spoof an IP address which is local to the server you’d like to access. That way your service provider will think you’re in the correct country to do so and allow you to watch the Europa League on your subscription as if you were back home.

VPNs are also as useful for banking as they are at trying to watch video content or accessing websites people in your location are not supposed to do. They encrypt the data passing between you and the server, so that the information remains private.

So, whether you want to watch live football, enjoy another country’s Netflix library or just keep your browsing data private, then a VPN is well worth considering.

There are many VPN providers out there, with some more reliable and safe than others. As a rule, we’d suggest a paid-for service and would recommend the following:

- ExpressVPN

You can get three months free when you sign up to a year-long plan, bringing VPN access to smart devices including the Amazon Fire TV Stick, laptops, TVs and both Android and iOS mobiles and tablets. Express also offers a 30-day money-back guarantee.

- NordVPN

Which comes in at as little as $2.99 (£2.29) per month and features 24/7 assistance

Once you’ve made your choice, all you need to do is sign in to your VPN service through whichever device you’d like to use to watch the match. When prompted to select a server, you need to pick one which is based in the country whose content you’d like to access. Then navigate to the relevant video streaming app or website and you’re in.
