Huddersfield have never won a home game in the playoffs but they'll need to break that record if they're to progress to the final. The Terriers beat Luton 2-0 at the John Smith's Stadium last month and have only lost four league games on home turf all season, so manager Carlos Corberan will be confident his side can finish the job here on Monday night.

The Spaniard has made two changes to his side from the first leg, with Pipa and Levi Colwill coming in for Naby Sarr and the injured Ollie Turton.

Luton's playoff record is even worse, with no wins in five attempts – home or away. The Hatters haven't had much luck at Huddersfield either, with just one victory in their last five visits. Anything can happen in the playoffs, of course, but will Nathan Jones live to regret not making more of home advantage on Friday night?

There are also two changes to the Luton side, with Robert Snodgrass in for Henri Lansbury, and Danny Hylton replacing Cameron Jerome as Harry Cornick's strike partner.

It's a 7:45pm BST kick-off (2:45pm ET) today, Monday 16th May at the John Smith's Stadium. Read on to find out how to watch a Huddersfield Town vs Luton Town live stream wherever you are in the world.

Watch a Huddersfield Town vs Luton Town live stream abroad using a VPN

Even if you have subscribed to the relevant EFL Championship rights holders, you won't be able to use them when outside your own country. The service will know your location based on your IP address, and will automatically block your access. A Virtual Private Network (VPN) helps you get around this obstacle.

A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, such that the servers and services you’re accessing aren’t aware of what you’re doing. All the information passing back and forth is entirely encrypted.

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 such as ExpressVPN which offers a 100% risk-free money back guarantee. If you're not happy with the service any time within the first 30-days, then you can cancel with no penalties at all.

How to use a VPN

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. ExpressVPN is the one we recommend.

2. Open up the VPN app and choose the location of the service you wish to access. For the Championship playoffs, you may wish to choose 'Australia' to access Kayo Sports.

3. Then head over to Kayo on your browser or device and enjoy a Huddersfield Town vs Luton Town stream.

If, for whatever reason, you can't get it working, then do remember that you have the comfort of a 30-day money back guarantee with ExpressVPN. You could also try NordVPN, which also comes with a 30-day money back guarantee, and Surfshark which offers 24 hour assistance.
