One of the oldest and most storied rivalries in English soccer takes place this Sunday when Liverpool meets Manchester United.

The Red Devils enter the game on a five-game winning streak, while Liverpool has also turned its form around to go without loss for three games. A win might be necessary for Man United to stay in third place. Three points would take Liverpool back within sight of the top four as they currently sit in ninth place.

History suggests another even contest, although it also slightly favors the home team. In the 12 league meetings since 2008, Liverpool won six, Man United won five and there was a solitary 1-1 draw. Man United have lost twice to Liverpool at Old Trafford since 2009.

Second faces third in Serie A later on Sunday as Roma travels to Genoa. Roma is looking to recover from their midweek UEFA Champions League loss to Manchester City that saw them dumped out of the competition. Both teams might be looking to gain ground on first-placed Juventus who take on fourth-placed Sampdoria earlier in the day.

In the afternoon, the winner of University of Maryland-Baltimore County and Virginia will face either Providence or UCLA to become the champions of NCAA Division I soccer. Another champion will be crowned that evening when the second leg of the Liga MX Apertura final is contested by Club America and Tigres UANL.
