There are local rivalries to be settled, slim deficits to overturn and gauntlets to throw down as the European Rugby Champions Cup reaches its edge-of-your-seat, glued-to-the-TV, sudden death stage. The reigning champions are on the ropes, and you can read on as we explain how to watch a European Rugby Champions Cup live stream online for every 2021-22 game wherever you are.
In the UK, you can watch every single game from every single round of the European Rugby Champions Cup on BT Sport.
Don't forget that BT now has a £25 Monthly Pass, so you can get everything BT Sport has to offer, including Champions League football and UFC, without a long-term commitment.
The BT Sport app will let subscribers watch the rugby on any number of devices, including mobiles, tablets, consoles and smart TVs.
However, one game from each round is being shown for absolutely FREE on Channel 4.
That means you can also watch online via Channel 4's All4 streaming service, which is available on your laptop, or via apps for the likes of Android, iOS, PS4, Xbox, Roku, Amazon Fire.
Outside the UK? To access your preferred streaming service from abroadK, you'll need to download a good VPN, as detailed below.
BT Sport is also the place to watch the European Rugby Champions Cup in Ireland, with the subscription network showing every game from every round.
However, Virgin Media One (formerly TV3) is offering FREE coverage of one game per round.
We've recommended some of the best places to live stream European Rugby Champions Cup games below. But might run into a problem trying to access them if you're outside of your country - even if you're fully registered and in all likelihood paying a subscription fee.
This is because of something called geo-blocking - best thought of as a kind of digital border - but it's not nearly as scary as it sounds and we can help you get back to your preferred European Rugby Champions Cup live stream in no time at all.
Simply follow our VPN advice below and you'll soon be up and running with a great bit of software that allows you to relocate your device back to your country of residence - thereby regaining access to all the streaming services and content you normally enjoy at home.
Use a VPN to live stream rugby anywhere
ExpressVPN - get the world's best VPN
We've put all the major VPNs through their paces and we rate ExpressVPN as our top pick, thanks to its speed, ease of use and strong security features. It's also compatible with just about any streaming device out there, including Amazon Fire TV Stick, Apple TV, Xbox and PlayStation, as well as Android and Apple mobiles.
Rugby fans based in the US can watch the European Rugby Champions Cup on NBC, NBCSN and the Peacock TV streaming service.
Peacock is your best and most cost-effective bet, as NBC's linear channels only show games once in a while.
Peacock costs just $4.99 a month for an ad-supported version of the service that offers live coverage not only of the European Rugby Champions Cup, but also the Rugby Premiership, loads of EPL soccer games, every big WWE event, plus plenty more live sports.
It's exceptional value for money and comes loaded with fantastic family entertainment too, like Modern Family, The Office and Saved by the Bell.
You also have the option of paying $10 a month for commercial-free coverage.

beIN Sports has the rights to show the European Rugby Champions Cup Down Under.
If you don't have it as part of a pay TV package, you can also sign up to beIN Sports as a standalone subscription, costing $19.99 per month after you've taken advantage of a FREE two-week trial.
That said, sports streaming specialist Kayo Sports includes beIN in its package - and it also offers a FREE 14-day Kayo Sports trial, plus Kayo's other vast sport offerings. The only catch is that you won't get every European Rugby Champions Cup game with Kayo.
After the free trial, the Kayo Sports Basic plan costs just $25 a month and lets you stream on two screens, while Premium is a mere $35 a month for simultaneous viewing on up to three devices.
Of the two, Kayo Sports Premium represents the best value as it offers multi-screen support - which means you can effectively split the price of a monthly subscription between friends or family and pay less.
Don't forget, you can take your coverage abroad with you as well. For those wanting to watch home coverage of sports from overseas, a good VPN is the solution.
