not sure they will be able to keep their stream unlocked for those games  

 

DAZN is very good at whining against their events being broadcasted for free elsewhere 

 

in any case, I'm well covered with my Japanese IPTV (which I'm using for the NPB playoffs)

 

p.s. earlier Today, I made a nice discover...with a free dazn account and my vpn (express vpn), I can have access to all the free content of the international versions of dazn, too  (excluded those in the European Union, because of some stupid rules which lead to see always your local version in all the EU States )

 

so, I can watch all the free content from the Canadian and/or Japanese dazn, for instance
