Iowa vs Uconn live stream: How to watch Final Four women's basketball online and on TV

Caitlin Clark #22 of the Iowa Hawkeyes looks on ahead of the Iowa vs UConn live stream for March Madness 2024 .

Today's Final Four clash between No.1 Iowa and No.3 UConn is being billed as the Caitlin Clark vs Paige Bueckers show. It stands to be the tie of the tournament so far, and with Clark set for this year's WNBA Draft, it could also end up being her final ever college game. Iowa are marginal favorites according to DraftKings ahead of tip-off, but these teams are extremely closely matched. You don't want to miss this.

Read on and we'll show you how to watch Iowa vs UConn from anywhere with a VPN, and potentially for FREE.

Iowa vs UConn live streams: TV schedule, dates

► Tip-off time: 9:30 p.m. ET / 6:30 p.m. PT / 2:30 a.m. GMT (Apr. 6) / 12:30 p.m. AEDT (Apr. 6)
• TV channels — ESPN / ESPN2

• Watch anywhere — Try NordVPN 100% risk free

Whereas Bueckers, Nika Muhl and Aaliyah Edwards top the Huskies' respective scoring, assists and rebounding charts, Clark is doing it all for the Hawkeyes. The 22-year-old guard has broken near-enough every college basketball record going, to the extent that the stats just don't do her justice anymore. 

She's quite simply the greatest college basketball player of all time, one who raises the bar higher each and every time she steps out onto the court, the likes of whom we may never see again. 

But elite sport has little time for sentimentality, and being the best individual does not guarantee the women's March Madness title. If anything, Iowa's victory over USC was a Clark-inspired bailout that was far too close for comfort, and suffering season-ending injuries to six players seems to have galvanized UConn. Their defense is rock-solid too. 

Read on as we explain how to watch Iowa vs UConn live streams from anywhere.

Iowa vs UConn is being shown on ESPN and ESPN2 in the U.S., with tip-off set for 9:30 p.m. ET / 6:30 p.m. PT on Friday. The game is also being shown on ESPN Plus.

If you've already cut the cord and don't have a cable package, you can get the channels through an OTT cable TV alternative.

Sling TV is the option we'd recommend. It includes ESPN and ESPN2 in its Orange plan, with prices starting from $40/month and your first month half-price. Better yet, Sling Orange also includes TBS, which is showing every remaining men's March Madness game.

Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the game on your subscriptions?

You can still watch Iowa vs UConn live thanks to the wonders of a VPN (Virtual Private Network). The software allows your devices to appear to be back in your home country regardless of where in the world you are. So ideal for basketball fans away on vacation or on business. Our favorite is NordVPN. It's the best on the market:

Sky Sports is showing Iowa vs UConn in the U.K., with tip-off set for 2:30 a.m. BST on Friday night/Saturday morning.

If you already have a Sky subscription that doesn't include Sports, you'll need to pay £18/month to add those channels.

Whichever package you go for, you'll also gain access to coverage in 4K and HDR, so long as you also have an HDR-ready Sky Q box and HLG-compatible TV.

Sky Glass is another option. This gives you Sky TV within a 4K TV that has a built-in Dolby Atmos soundbar, and without the need for a dish. Prices start at £14/month for the TV, plus a Sky sub on top of that.

If you don't want to shell out for a full Sky subscription, you could also consider its Now Sports streaming service. This gives you 24-hour access for £11.99 or month-long access for £34.99.
