The Flying Fijians are the visitors for a tantalising Saturday night game in Edinburgh.

The second match of this year’s Autumn Nations Series sees the game’s great entertainers travelling to Murrayfield. This guide explains how to watch Scotland v Fiji live streams wherever you are in the world – including details of how you can use a VPN to watch the match if you’re away from home today.

Kick-off: 5.40pm GMT, Saturday 2 November

Watch in the UK and Ireland: TNT Sports

Watch in the US: Peacock

Use NordVPN to watch your usual stream from abroad

Fiji have never won at Murrayfield but, after storming to victory in the recent Pacific Nations Cup, they’ll fancy their chances of causing an upset – especially now they’re just two places behind their hosts in the world rankings. Gregor Townsend has named a strong XV for the match, but how much will the team miss marquee players Finn Russell and Blair Kinghorn, whose club commitments (with Bath and Toulouse, respectively) prevent them from playing this game outside the official international window. Scotland also have a new captain in Sione Tuipulotu.

The Flying Fijians are many fans’ second team, so watching a Scotland v Fiji live stream is sure to be time well spent. It’s looking like a mild and dry evening in Scotland, so scroll down to see the line-ups and find out more about broadcasters where you are. You can also check out our guide to the Scotland team.
