Five Must-See Football Matches This Weekend

This weekend offers plenty of exciting football matches from Istanbul, Porto, Milan and Liverpool but here's Sports Pundit's pick of the bunch.

Sports Pundit's Game of the Weekend
Real Mallorca v FC Sevilla
Spanish La Liga NFL jerseys
Saturday, 10pm (CET)

While the title race appears a two-horse race and Valencia look destined for third spot, the race for the fourth and final UEFA Champions League place remains wide open with 5th placed Mallorca and 4th placed Sevilla likely to battle it out.

Mallorca boast a wonderful home record with ten wins out of ten on the island in La Liga this season, which gives them a major advantage. But Sevilla, who are part of the last 16 in the current Champions League edition, are a very strong side on their day.

Manchester City v Liverpool
English Premier League
Sunday, 4pm (CET)

This game is another for Champions League spots with fourth-placed big-spenders Man City entertaining fifth-placed Liverpool. City are undefeated at home in the league this season, but Liverpool had been in-form before their loss to Arsenal last time out. With a point separating both sides, they both want the win.

VfL Wolfsburg v Schalke 04
German Bundesliga
Sunday, 5.30pm (CET)

This match marks the first return of Felix Magath to the Volkswagen Arena since his move from champions Wolfsburg to Gelsenkirchen club Schalke. Since then Wolfsburg have fallen from grace sitting in 12th, while Schalke are in the title race in third, three points behind the leaders. Magath needs the points here, but it will be an awkward game.

PAOK v Panathinaikos
Greek Super League
Sunday, 6pm (CET)

Leaders Panathinaikos travel to impressive third-placed PAOK this Sunday. Pana are in the middle of a little slump having won just one in four, so this is a crucial clash with second-placed Olympiacos and PAOK closing in. But the Greek leaders will be buoyed by a stirring midweek Europa League win over AS Roma

Unirea Urziceni v CFR Cluj
Romanian Liga I
Monday, 4.30pm (CET)

The Romanian league resumes after their long winter break with the top two going head-to-head. Unirea and CFR Cluj are the last two champions of Romania and with both sharing the lead at this stage, you fancy either of them for this season's title. It builds for a big clash.
