Five Must-See Football Matches This Weekend

There's barely two months of domestic football to go before the internationals get cracking in preparation for the World Cup, so Europe's top leagues are getting exciting and here's what not to miss this weekend.

Sports Pundit's Game of the Weekend
Palermo v Inter Milan
Italian Serie A
Saturday, 8.45pm (Central European Time)

Italian champions and current leaders Inter travel to Champions League chasing Palermo in a crucial game for both sides in Serie A. Despite Inter's midweek success in the ECL, recently in domestic competition they've struggled with just one win in six. Their grasp on top spot is under threat with Milan one point behind.

Therefore the journey to Sicily to face the unbeaten-at-home Palermo couldn't come at a worse time for Jose Mourinho's men. Fourth-placed Palermo need to keep fifth-placed Juventus at bay, so three points is paramount here and this is a real test of their ability to push for Europe.

PSV Eindhoven v FC Twente
Dutch Eredivisie
Saturday, 7.45pm (CET)



Saturday marks a critical date in the Eredivisie title race as second-placed PSV Eindhoven host leaders FC Twente at the Philips Stadion. Two PSV losses on the trot has offered Twente a five point advantage in the title race, but this game is a chance for the Eindhoven club to gain some ground. It's also a chance for Twente to blow it open.
