Scottish Premiership Soccer: Stream Celtic vs. St. Mirren Live From Anywhere

Celtic begin their campaign for a fifth consecutive SPL title today with a tricky-looking season opener at home to St Mirren. 

Below, we’ll outline the best live TV streaming services to use to watch the game as it happens, wherever you are in the world, and how to use a VPN if the match isn’t available where you are.

Another league triumph this season would see Brendan Rodgers’ side surpass their eternal Glasgow rivals Rangers, moving ahead with 56 Scottish top-flight titles. However, their summer transfer activity has been relatively modest, with Kieran Tierney’s free transfer return from Arsenal standing out as the club’s most high-profile signing.

They face a St Mirren side aiming to build on three straight top-six finishes. Stephen Robinson’s men enjoyed an encouraging pre-season campaign and will be hopeful of causing an early upset—securing what would be their first victory over Celtic in 14 attempts.

Motherwell vs. Rangers on Sunday, Aug. 3, at Fir Park Stadium, with kickoff set for 4:30 p.m. BST local time. That makes it an 11:30 a.m. ET or 8:30 a.m. PT start in the US and Canada, and a 1:30 a.m. AEST kickoff in Australia early on Monday morning.

How to watch the Scottish Premiership 2025-26 season from anywhere with a VPN

If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the Scottish Premiership action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming. 

It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds, and can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security. 

However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance. 

If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions, ensuring you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN usage is crucial.

Today’s match at Celtic Park is exclusive to Sky Sports, showing on its Sky Sports Main Event channel.

Can I livestream Celtic vs. St Mirren in Canada?

No broadcaster currently has the rights to show SPL games live in Canada this season. 

That also means that if you’re in Canada traveling for pleasure or for work, you’re unlikely to be able to watch the game like you normally would at home, thanks to geoblocking. 

There’s one option to get around this. By using a VPN, as explained above, you can set your location to a country where the match is being broadcast and go from there.

Quick tips for streaming the Scottish Premiership using a VPN 

• With four variables at play — your ISP, browser, video streaming provider and VPN — your experience and success when streaming SPL matches may vary.
• If you don’t see your desired location as a default option for ExpressVPN, try using the “search for city or country” option.
• If you’re having trouble getting the game after you’ve turned on your VPN and set it to the correct viewing area, there are two things you can try for a quick fix. First, log into your streaming service subscription account and make sure the address registered for the account is an address in the correct viewing area. If not, you may need to change the physical address on file with your account. Second, some smart TVs — like Roku — don’t have VPN apps you can install directly on the device itself. Instead, you’ll have to install the VPN on your router or the mobile hotspot you’re using (like your phone) so that any device on its Wi-Fi network now appears in the correct viewing location.
• All of the VPN providers we recommend have helpful instructions on their main site for quickly installing the VPN on your router. In some cases with smart TV services, after you install a cable network’s sports app, you’ll be asked to verify a numeric code or click a link sent to your email address on file for your smart TV. This is where having a VPN on your router will also help, since both devices will appear to be in the correct location. 
• And remember, browsers can often give away a location despite using a VPN, so be sure you’re using a privacy-first browser to log into your services. We normally recommend Brave.
