The Italian Serie B is the second-tier national football league made of 22 clubs. The top two get promoted to the Serie A, and it looks like Empoli and Palermo have solidified their top spots. The three lowest-scoring clubs are relegated to the Serie C. 

The Serie B is the second-tier domestic championship, so its broadcasting contracts are limited to a handful of regional companies.

Sky Sport Italia broadcasts the Serie B matches across Sky Go Italia, Sky Calcio 1, 2, 7, and 10, Sky Supercalcio HD, and Sky Sport 1 HD Italia.

Other streaming options outside Italy include:

Each match differs in coverage, so some games enjoy better international coverage than others.

If you are looking to stream the Serie B without lock-in contracts that cost an arm and a leg, your best bet would be to go with LaOla1. The streaming provider offers free and premium streams, the difference being mainly in the streaming quality. But if you don’t mind average video quality, you should be able to watch most of the Serie B games at no cost.

Also, SNAI is an Italian online betting provider offering the Serie A and B free live streams to its registered users. And you don’t need a deposited account – €0 is fine as long as your balance is not negative. You can stream via SNAI website or its mobile apps, and unlike other bookmakers, SNAI doesn’t block live streams if you haven’t made a bet in the last 48 hours.

  • Your Italian Sky Sport subscription or SNAI account are region-locked. As annoying as it is, you can’t stream your Serie B matches from outside Italy when you travel for work, vacation, or live a nomadic lifestyle.
  • You are in Italy, but your school or employer blocks your access to the sports streaming sites because they want you to focus on your work, duh.
  • You are in a country that offers zero coverage of the Serie B locally, and you don’t want to register with Bet365. So your best option would be to stream via LaOla1, which is only available in a handful of European countries, but you’re nowhere near Europe.

Does any of that sound familiar? No stress  – a VPN helps you bypass all those streaming blocks because it lets you anchor your connection to Italy.

In essence, a Virtual Private Network is a web of servers across the world. When you connect to one of its servers, it routes all your traffic through the server and assigns you an IP address pertinent to that country.

If you connect to a VPN server in Italy, you get an Italian IP address, and Sky Sport recognizes you as a regular soccer aficionado from Italy. To stream with LaOla1, connect to a VPN server in Germany and stream the Serie B in its entirety for free – from anywhere in the world.

But streaming sports is not the only reason to use a VPN. By far, its greatest advantage is security – by encrypting your data, a VPN adds an extra layer of protection to your online activities:

  • Your Internet Service Provider can’t eavesdrop on you or throttle your bandwidth when you stream or play online games
  • You can easily bypass your school or office firewalls
  • Your data is protected against honeypots on public WiFi and Man-in-the-Middle attacks
  • Sites you visit can’t see your real location
  1. Buy yourself a VPN subscription.
  2. Install a VPN client on your device.
  3. Connect to a VPN server in the country of your choice (for example, Italy for streaming with Sky Sport, or Germany for unlocking LaOla1).
  4. Clear your browser’s cache.
  5. Go to your streaming site and enjoy your Serie B matches – from anywhere in the world.

​These providers run streaming-optimized servers in Italy, Germany, Eastern Europe, and across the Americas, so you can stream the Serie B without a glitch from anywhere in the world.
