Saturday, 12th of March, 2011
FA Cup Arsenal at Manchester United (FA Cup)Reasons to Watch: Although AccuScore does not cover the FA Cup, this match is definitely worth watching. Arsenal and Manchester United are the top 2 teams in the English Premier League at the moment, and this match may well set the tone for who will win the league. After Arsenal crashed out of the UEFA Champions League this week, the Gunners will be desperate to end their trophy drought with a positive result. Cesc Fabregas, Rio Ferdinand, Nani, and Wojciech Szczesny are some of the players who will not be fit enough to compete.
German Bundesliga Hamburg SV at Bayern Munich
Reasons to Watch: Both Bayern Munich and Hamburg have had disappointing seasons, but these two big-time German clubs are playing for pride as much as they are playing for points. Bayern’s performance in this match will be dissected ad nauseam because of their upcoming match with Inter Milan next week. Arjen Robben is the in-form player to watch in this match.

Italian Serie A Lazio at AS Roma
Reasons to Watch: This is the heated Rome derby. The history, hatred, and passion of the fans will fuel the intensity of this match regardless of the current form of either side. Lazio are only 10 points off the pace and currently sit in 4th place, while Roma are 5 points back of their local rivals in 6th place. Roma crashed out of the Champions League, but a win for Roma on the weekend will be sweet nonetheless.
Spanish Primera Liga Barcelona at Sevilla
Reasons to Watch: Sevilla have had a disappointing season, to say the least. After being knocked out of the Champions League, Europa League, and the Copa Del Rey, the team from Seville finds itself 12 points back of a Champions League berth and 2 points out of a Europa League spot. A visit from Barcelona does not provide a boost for the squad, but Sevilla vs Barcelona has been an entertaining fixture in recent years, more so in past seasons. The meeting at the Camp Nou this season was a 5-0 slaughter, so Sevilla will be playing for pride in front of their home fans.
