The first sell-out rugby game at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff looks set to be a cracker as this year's Six Nations winners take on the formidable All Blacks. Read on for your full guide on how to watch this Test online and get a Wales vs New Zealand live stream from anywhere.

After claiming the Triple Crown back in March and coming agonisingly close to sealing a grand slam, Wayne Pivac's Welsh side have work to do, having won just one of their last three matches.

They welcome a New Zealand side that looks back to its imperious best, with the All Blacks, losing just one game on their way to securing the Rugby Championship earlier this year, and scoring a massive 104 points in their huge win over the United States last week.

How to use a VPN to unblock any restrictions

If you're outside of your preferred broadcaster's boundaries, you can use a VPN to unblock any geo-restrictions and watch Wales vs New Zealand live stream as if you were right at home. Here's our step-by-step guide on how to do just that.

  • VPN - standing for virtual private network - offers security and anonymity as you browse online, using set protocols to encrypt your data and make it unreadable to outsiders.
  • As a part of that, you can also switch your IP address, which identifies your location.
  • Most VPNs offer a list of locations where its servers are based to join. Connecting to them switches your IP to appear as if you're browsing from that country/city. In turn, you can then access content locked to that country.
  • When it comes to finding a VPN, you should make sure you find the best one that's suitable for your chosen device, with VPN providers offering compatibility for a ton of devices, including VPN for MacVPN for Android smartphones, an iPad VPN, and even a range of fairly nifty free VPNs.
  • Once you've made the decision for the most suitable VPN for your device and your means for using a VPN, sign-up and install it
  • To live stream Wales vs New Zealand, all you need to do is select a country showing matches from its list of available servers and connect. You'll then be able to hop over geo-restrictions, with the likes of Prime Video and other services opening their online gates to you.
  • We also want to ensure your money is well spent, so we would recommend going for a VPN that offers a risk free trial. ExpressVPN is one of many providers that has a 30-day money back guarantee.
