In what promises to be a huge match considering all the (sporting) history between the two nations, football could well be coming home today - but where can you watch it, and what are the rules?

Where can I watch the match?

England's round of 16 match against Germany today will be broadcast live on BBC One with kickoff at 5pm, so you could stay at home to watch.

Some pubs are also showing the game - but what are the rules?

What are the rules if I want to go to the pub to watch it?

These also apply if you're inviting people over to your house.

If you're inside up to six people from six households (or two households of any size) can meet.

If you're outside, up to 30 people can meet in a pub garden.

Steve Brown, Director of Public Health Devon, said: "My message is simple. Enjoy the tournament, but do so safely.

"While case numbers are comparatively low in Devon still, for the moment, positive cases across the country are rising as they are in other European countries.

"If you're visiting parts of the country where the Delta strain is dominant, please try to meet people outdoors, and wear a face covering when indoors in public spaces.

"We need to beat coronavirus and the final whistle hasn't blown yet!"
