Following a midweek slate loaded with continental competition, domestic action takes center stage over the weekend, headlined by the schedule in Germany.
John Brooks and Hertha Berlin face the toughest test in a clash with Bayern Munich, who destroyed Arsenal in midweek Champions League action. On the other end of the table, Terrence Boyd looks to continue Darmstadt’s push back from relegation against Hoffenheim while Bobby Wood and Hamburg face off with Freiburg.
In England, FA Cup action continues as several Americans look to guide their teams further in the competition. American defenders could collide on Sunday as Tim Ream’s Fulham looks to complete the upset-filled week of Cameron Carter-Vickers’ Tottenham, who were shocked by Genk in Europa League action. Brad Guzan could see the field for Middlesbrough in a clash with underdogs Oxford United, while David Wagner and Huddersfield Town face long odds against Manchester City.
Elsewhere, Emerson Hyndman and Gedion Zelalem look to continue hot starts with their new clubs while Andrew Wooten looks to keep scoring goals for Sandhausen.
