This could be a classic, so keep reading for your full guide to getting a Carabao Cup final live stream and watching Liverpool vs Chelsea online from anywhere. 

These two sides played out the best 45 minutes of the season last month, a wild affair that served up red card controversy, defensive gaffes and four goals, including a piece of magic from Mohamed Salah and a hopping, swinging, dipping volley from Mateo Kovacic. 

The Reds' last two appearances in the final have gone to shootouts, Glen Johnson netting the winning spotkick when they last won the trophy in 2012. But so far it's evaded Jurgen Klopp, who saw his side lose the 2016 final to Man City.

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 a Liverpool vs Chelsea 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, as well as 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 Liverpool vs Chelsea, all you need to do is select the right server from its list of available servers and connect. You'll then be able to hop over those geo-restrictions, with your broadcaster of choice opening its 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.
