While the Bundesliga and FA Cup return to action this weekend, some of the best story lines in this weekend’s soccer action can be found in Italy.

Serie A leaders Juventus travel back to Rome’s Stadio Olimpico for the second time in the last five days with a match against Lazio. Last Tuesday, the Serie A-leading Juventus were knocked out of the Coppa Italia in a 1-0 defeat to AS Roma, as manager Antonio Conte chose to rest a half-dozen of his regular starters. Juve face a suddenly in-form Lazio side that has not lost since Edoardo Reja took over as head coach on Jan. 4.

While Juventus travel south, Roma travel north to take on fifth-placed Hellas Verona in a key Serie A match.

As mentioned before, the Bundesliga is back from their winter break with the 18th round of action, highlighted by Bayern Munich’s trip to Borussia Mönchengladbach. Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben are doubtful to start while Javi Martinez and Bastian Schweinsteiger have been ruled out.

Elsewhere around the world, AS Monaco face Olympique Marseille in their first game without Radamel Falcao, Arsenal host Coventry City in the FA Cup, and Barcelona host Malaga in La Liga action.

  1. if Jozy doesn’t start and score vs. Kidderminster …

    BBC is pumping this match up as a potential upset as Kidderminster is going all in against a Sunderland team that might be a bit tired and distracted.
