Last time AC Milan lifted the Coppa Italia they also won the Champions League – and while a repeat of that feat to mark the 20th anniversary is improbable, they do come into this game as clear favourites. The reigning league champions are on a gruelling run of five games in 15 days, though, which culminates with a trip to Saudi Arabia to play local rivals Inter in the Supercoppa Italiana. That means some squad rotation will be necessary, but with a successful defence of their Serie A title looking unlikely, head coach Stefano Pioli may well have an eye on this competition for silverware.

Torino come into this game on a run of three draws in a row, with their last win coming at home to Sampdoria before the World Cup break. That’s a long time to go without tasting victory, but they did beat AC Milan last time they met – a 2-1 win back in October. Il Toro currently sit 10th in Serie A, with no real fears of relegation but little chance of challenging for Europe, so it’s probably worth Ivan Jurić’s side going all out in the cup. Can they take advantage of their opponents’ packed schedule?

Kick-off is at 20.00 GMT (15.00 ET), Wednesday 11th January, at the San Siro in Milan. Italian viewers can watch on Canale 5 of free. (opens in new tab) UK viewers can watch on Viaplay, while US viewers can catch the action on Paramount+. Read on for all the details of the Coppa Italia and how to watch an AC Milan vs Torino live stream wherever you are in the world.

Italian TV network Canale 5 (opens in new tab) has the rights to air the Coppa Italia, including this game between AC Milan vs Torino, on its national TV channel and on its website – and it’s totally free for Italians to watch.

Italian national away from home? You can enjoy the coverage for free from abroad by subscribing to a VPN (opens in new tab). We recommend ExpressVPN. Full details just below.

How to watch AC Milan vs Torino free from abroad using a VPN

If you’re outside of Italy, you won’t be able to watch AC Milan vs Torino on Canale 5 without a VPN. The service will know your location based on your IP address, and will automatically block your access. That’s a problem if you’re an Italian citizen abroad trying to watch the game as usual. But help is at hand…

A Virtual Private Network (VPN) helps you get around this obstacle. A VPN creates a private connection between your device and the internet, such that the servers and services you’re accessing aren’t aware of what you’re doing. All the information passing back and forth is entirely encrypted.

There are many VPN providers out there, with some more reliable and safe than others. As a rule, we’d suggest a paid-for service such as ExpressVPN (opens in new tab) which offers a 100 per cent risk-free money back guarantee. If you’re not happy with the service any time within the first 30-days, then you can cancel with no penalties at all.

How to use a VPN for AC Milan vs Torino

Using a VPN to access Canale 5 while away from home is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. ExpressVPN (opens in new tab) is the one we recommend.

2. Open up the VPN app and choose the location of the service you wish to access. For the Coppa Italia, you may wish to choose ‘Italy’ to access Canale 5.

3. Then head over to Canale 5 (opens in new tab) on your browser or device and enjoy an AC Milan vs Torino free live stream.

If, for whatever reason, you can’t get it working, then do remember that you have the comfort of a 30-day money back guarantee with ExpressVPN (opens in new tab). You could also try NordVPN (opens in new tab), which also comes with a 30-day money back guarantee, and Surfshark (opens in new tab) which offers 24 hour assistance.
