This article explains how to tune in for the final match of the pool stages wherever you are. It also includes details of how to watch for FREE on ITV4 and ITVX in the UK.

Stadium de Toulouse is where Pool C will reach its climax on this evening with kick-off coming soon at 8:00pm (BST). Below we’ll tell you all the details you need to tune in – and remember that if you’re watching from outside your country, you can use a VPN to watch Fiji v Portugal FOR FREE from abroad via ExpressVPN.

Fiji started their campaign with an agonisingly close loss to Wales but bounced back by beating the Wallabies and seeing off Georgia. They now need just a losing bonus point to secure a place in the quarter-finals. Portugal, playing in their second Rugby World Cup, drew with Georgia, and gave Australia and Wales a proper test during the group stage.

Vilimoni Botitu is one of six changes to the Fijian starting line-up from their last game against Georgia, while second-row Temo Manyanavanua will make his first Rugby World Cup start after three outings off the bench.

For Portugal, Tomás Appleton drops to the bench, with José Lima taking his place as captain and inside-centre in one of five changes to the starting XV from their last game against Australia.

So clear your schedule on Sunday and make sure you do not miss out on a Fiji v Portugal live stream by following the information below. We have details of all the Rugby World Cup fixtures and how to watch them right here, and if you scroll down to the end of the article you can find the kick-off times where you are.
