Upcoming games on the weekend. Lots of derbies once again collectively!

Saturday
Ajax vs PSV

Sunday
Inter vs Juventus
Real Madrid vs Atletico Madrid
Panathinaikos vs Olympiakos
Lyon vs Marseille
and yes, they're all on the same time....

There's also Arsenal vs Liverpool, not a derby but a big game.

And the Brest vs Nice game has its own appeal :)

Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munchen tonight. Shame it's pretty much the same time as Inter's game.

There's also Real Madrid vs Girona at the same time.

Sometimes I wish we could pick Australia up (and New Zealand) and just move it a bit toward South Africa to be on a closer time to you Euro blokes.

Great matchday upcoming on Sunday tomorrow:

Manchester City vs Manchester United (the Manchester derby, City to make a farmers' league out of the PL once again)
Napoli vs Juventus (forza Napule!)
Koln vs Leverkusen (with a Leverkusen win, they go 10 points clear off 2nd spot with 10 games to go)
Athletic Club vs Barcelona (the Basque-Catalan clasico, always a nice fixture)
PSV vs Feyenoord (title deciding or title race enabling game, PSV is 10 points clear now and unbeaten)
Besiktas vs Galatasaray (Besiktas far behind but a derby is a derby, Gatalasaray 2 points clear off Fenerbahce)
Porto vs Benfica (might be late for Porto to enter the race, but they can put the hurt on Benfica and allow Sporting to surpass them significantly)


Today feels like an off day in comparison.

Any updates for today's matches?
Which CL matches were more worth watching?

Gotta stay home for the day, so it's football day after an initial tennis game from whatever is available from the Monte Carlo tour.

What's objectively interesting to the mass:
Crystal Palace vs Manchester City (PL title race) early on
Milan vs Lecce (Serie A title countdown in case they drop points)
Roma vs Lazio (derby della Capitale)
Union Berlin vs Leverkusen (almost everyone still expects them to fail)
Brighton vs Arsenal (waiting for the gunners to choke)
Sporting vs Benfica (Sporting wins and they run with the title, they lose and it gets exciting. This following a dramatic two legged cup semi)
Athletic Club vs Mallorca (Copa del Rey final)


vs what I'll probably watch:
Hamburg vs Kaiserslautern (2. Bundesliga)
Union vs Leverkusen
Palermo vs Sampdoria (Serie B)
Roma vs Lazio
Sporting vs Benfica
Athletic Club vs Mallorca

some clashes of course, so will be zapping quite a bit


And on tomorrow's derby watch:
Rangers vs Celtic (probably title deciding)
Feyenoord vs Ajax
Manchester United vs Liverpool
Club Brugge vs Anderlecht
Galatasaray vs Fenerbahce (Super Cup)

It's Roma vs Lazio for me today, then Rangers vs Celtic between dog walks tommorow, followed by Genoa vs Verona later on Sunday.

not a great day for football, unless I'm missing something

Apart from Girona vs Barcelona and Stuttgart vs Bayern, and maaaybeee 2.Bundesliga game between Kaiserslautern and Magdeburg, there's nothing really interesting on in Europe. And that 2nd tier game is at the same time as Inter, so meh

With all due respect to him, you know the biases of the person you're asking this question to. You're not gonna get too many positive comments about the Premier League or English competition in general. It is what it is. Obviously this year's FA Cup Final, even with a dysfunctional Man Utd side in it, is more compelling a matchup than Leverkusen playing a team who barely escaped relegation in the German second division...if you're watching that game (which I will be), you're watching because you want to watch Leverkusen play again.

EDIT - I was reacting off your post, I didn't even notice that Brehme had acknowledged it.

It's called the Manchester derby and they're playing at Wembley for a competition called the FA Cup.

Maybe read again?

You are right, not sure how I missed that.
