How to watch Liège-Bastogne-Liège 2021: Live stream UCI World Tour cycling

Following hot on the heels of this week’s Amstel Gold Race and the Flèche Wallonne comes the third and most prestigious of the ‘Ardennes Classics’. Read on for your full guide to watching a Liège-Bastogne-Liège live stream from anywhere online.

One of the world’s oldest and toughest competitive bike races, this year’s installment of La Doyenne is the third of five Monuments this season.

The 140.9km race kicks off in Liège in south-eastern Belgium, with the riders head south towards the picturesque town of Bastogne before turning around and taking a longer, windier, and hillier return route back to the finish line in Liège.

The two clear favorites in this year’s men’s race are Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-Quick-Step) and Primož Roglič (Jumbo-Visma), with the two riders battling out in impressive style during Wednesday’s absorbing Flèche Wallonne, with Alaphilippe coming out on top.

The race also provides Alaphilippe an opportunity to erase the bad memories of last year’s race, which saw him prematurely celebrate victory only to see Roglič sneak up and snatch the win on the home straight.

The women’s race will meanwhile mark the last Classic appearance of an Ardennes Legend with Anna van der Breggen (SD Worx) having confirmed that this will be her last season before retiring.

Read on to find out how to watch a Liège-Bastogne-Liège 2021 live stream, no matter where you are in the world.
