Arsenal is on a 5-0-1 hot streak in Premier League play, and will look to take a step closer to the top four with a win against Manchester United in the most high-profile offering in This Weekend’s Soccer on TV. ‘
The Red Devils are coming off a disappointing loss to Sheffield United, and can’t afford to drop points again, not with Manchester City on a roll. A win won’t come easy though against an Arsenal side brimming with confidence.
American fans will be tuning into the Werder Bremen-Schalke clash, not to see two teams from the bottom half of the Bundesliga table, but to see two leading candidates for the starting USMNT striker role do battle, as Josh Sargent and Matthew Hoppe work to build their cases to be Gregg Berhalter’s chosen striker.

Here is a look at This Weekend’s Top 5 Matches to Watch, along with a full rundown of the soccer viewing options available this weekend:
Top 5 Matches to Watch
1. Arsenal vs. Manchester United. The Gunners are rolling, and Red Devils looking to rebound after a terrible loss. Expect goals.
2. Atalanta vs. Lazio. This should be the most wide-open and entertaining match of the weekend, with Lazio in stellar form and Atalanta coming off a thrashing of AC Milan.
3. RB Leipzig vs. Bayer Leverkusen. Bayer Munich has run away from the pack, but the battle for second place remains wide open, and RB Leipzig needs this one to halt its recent slide.
4. West Ham United vs. Liverpool. Did the win against Tottenham awaken the Reds, or will West Ham expose Liverpool’s defensive vulnerabilities?
5. Werder Bremen vs. Schalke. Josh Sargent vs. Matthew Hoppe is the battle American fans will hope to see, even if neither is guaranteed to start. Either way, this is the game most likely to produce a goal by an American.
