Watch Northampton Saints v Bath Rugby in today's Twickenham showcase
And then there were two… Northampton Saints and Bath Rugby are the last teams standing in this year’s Gallagher Premiership, and the two table-topping sides will battle for the Gallagher Premiership title at Twickenham this afternoon. This article explains how to watch a Premiership final live stream wherever you are in the world, including details of how fans in the UK can watch the big match for FREE on ITVX.
If you’re outside your home country but want to follow the games in the company of your usual broadcaster, you can use a VPN (such as NordVPN) to watch a Premiership final live stream from anywhere.
We know there’ll be a new name on the trophy this year, after Saints eliminated champions Saracens last weekend. But with little to choose between the two sides over the course of the league season – both finished on 60 points – today’s Twickenham clash could go either way.
Will the Premiership return to Franklin’s Gardens for the first time in a decade, or will the Rec be home to English rugby’s champions for the first time this century? You’ll have to watch a Premiership Rugby live stream to find out – read on to find out how – but you can also check out Rugby World’s Northampton v Bath predictions, and five things to look out for in the Gallagher Premiership final.

How to watch Premiership Rugby final from outside your country
If you are away from home and want to use your usual broadcaster to watch the Premiership Rugby final from another country, you can do so by using a VPN – Virtual Private Network.

Our fine colleagues at TechRadar have tested hundreds of VPNs and reckon NordVPN is the best. It’s straightforward and easy to use, has great security, is available on loads of streaming devices and, best of all, it comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it out 100% risk-free.
