WEEKEND WATCH GUIDE
League Cup: Liverpool vs. Manchester City, 10:30 a.m. Sunday, beIN Sports. Jurgen Klopp has barely begun his tenure as Liverpool Manager, while Manuel Pellegrini is coming to the end of his time in charge of Manchester City, but only one will lift the first trophy of the English season. City is heavily favored in this game, but the last time the two met, Liverpool won 4-1.
La Liga: Atlético Madrid at Real Madrid, 9 a.m. Saturday, beIN Sports. Both Madrid sides appear unable to catch Barcelona for the title, but on derby day that hardly matters. Real is the rich, establishment team, Atlético the built-on-a-budget favorite of Madrid's working class. Though it's usually the underdog in this game, Atlético hasn't lost to Real in two seasons.
Premier League: Arsenal at Manchester United, 8 a.m. Sunday, NBCSN. Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal is under fire after a string of disappointments have left United far adrift of England's top four. That said, Arsenal is hardly licking its lips; the Gunners, though chasing a title this season, haven't won a Premier League game at Old Trafford in nearly a decade.
Serie A: Inter Milan at Juventus, 1:45 p.m. Sunday, beIN Sports. After 15 consecutive Serie A victories, the Juventus winning streak finally ended with a draw last week. While the streak put Turin's finest back on top of Italy, Juventus is still only a point ahead of Napoli — and Inter, mired in fifth, desperately needs a result to push for a berth in next season's Champions League.
