This Weekend’s Soccer on TV

France takes center stage in what’s another busy week of soccer on your television.

Fresh off thumping Celtic in the Champions League, Neymar and Paris Saint-Germain face their toughest test in France to date. The French leaders travel south to face AS Monaco on Sunday, the defending Ligue 1 champions, in a match that will put their unbeaten record to the test.

England has a big match of its own as well on Sunday. Liverpool hosts Chelsea in a battle of teams with eyes on the top four of the Premier League.

Over in Spain, Real Madrid welcomes Malaga to the Santiago Bernabeu, and leaders Barcelona face a shockingly competitive Valencia side.

Elsewhere, Christian Pulisic may return to action for Dortmund as they try to end their recent woes by playing Schalke at home on Saturday, the Liga MX quarterfinals play out their second legs, and AS Roma faces a tough road test in Genoa.

  1. Thanks for this, as many times before.

    But …

    Is there not any way to highlight the matches that are actually viewable by the most people? Wouldn’t it be helpful to give the top billing (e.g., boldface, highlighting, first in the list) to the (very) few matches that are shown on network TV (NBC, Telemundo), followed by those on standard cable or secondary channels (FS1, ESPN, NBCSN, CNBC, UniMás), then at a much lower level those only on premium cable (FS2, beIN, UDN), and last of all those available only via streaming?

    And then if those priorities could be cross-referenced to matches in which American players are most likely to actually play (see Americans Abroad), that would be super.

    Just an idea.

    • How much spoonfeeding so you need? They break it down by league and day and tell you which games are what channels and times. You also need to be careful when referring to channels people get. I get cable via Fios and all of these channels are available on that medium.
