The early phase of the Serie A season has been on the wild side.
Atalanta leads the Italian ranks heading into Matchweek 5, while both Milan clubs have been less than perfect out of the gate and should be highly motivated to show their best when they lock horns on Saturday in the biggest match of the weekend.
AC Milan took the Scudetto spoils by just two points over rival Inter Milan last year in one of Europe’s more contentious title races but refreshed lineups and early struggles make their first meeting of the new season an unpredictable and engaging chapter of their storied rivalry.
Manchester United seems to have snapped out of its embarrassing run of form out of the gate and gets to size up what looks to be a surprisingly steady Arsenal side to headline the weekend’s Premier League action on Sunday.
The road to the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup rages on, and the U.S. women’s national team has already clinched their ticket to Oceania but still has some roster spots for the taking. Saturday’s matchup with Nigeria is the return to action following a successful Concacaf W Championship in July and should offer an update on head coach Vlatko Andonovski’s World Cup plans.
