1. Manchester United v Manchester City — Premier League, 16:30

United go into the derby off the back of a comfortable Champions League win but a stuttering domestic run, against a City side unbeaten since their Community Shield defeat to Arsenal and full of confidence after a routine trip to Porto.

Manchester United — recent results

  • Manchester United 4-0 Sabah (W, Champions League)
  • Everton 2-2 Manchester United (D)
  • Manchester United 5-2 Ipswich Town (W)
  • Hull City 2-0 Manchester United (L)
  • Manchester United 2-4 AC Milan (L, friendly)

Manchester City — recent results

  • Porto 0-2 Manchester City (W, Champions League)
  • Manchester City 1-0 Coventry City (W)
  • Crystal Palace 1-4 Manchester City (W)
  • Manchester City 2-1 Bournemouth (W)
  • Manchester City 0-3 Arsenal (L, Community Shield)

United's win over Sabah in midweek was routine, but a draw and a defeat in their last two Premier League outings show the defensive uncertainty that's dogged them all season. City, by contrast, have won four straight since their Community Shield loss to Arsenal and head to Old Trafford full of rhythm after a comfortable night in Porto.

Prediction: Manchester United 1-2 Manchester City. City's superior recent form should be enough to edge a tight derby, even with home advantage for United.

2. Elversberg v Bayern Munich — Bundesliga, 16:30

Elversberg's historic first-ever top-flight campaign continues against a Bayern Munich side yet to lose this season and fresh off a five-goal Champions League opener.

Elversberg — recent results

  • Borussia Monchengladbach 4-3 Elversberg (L)
  • Elversberg 3-2 Bayer Leverkusen (W)
  • Duisburg 1-3 Elversberg (W, DFB-Pokal)

Bayern Munich — recent results

  • Bayern Munich 5-0 Bodo/Glimt (W, Champions League)
  • Schalke 0-0 Bayern Munich (D)
  • VfL Osnabruck 1-4 Bayern Munich (W, DFB-Pokal)
  • Bayern Munich 5-1 Stuttgart (W)
  • Borussia Dortmund 1-2 Bayern Munich (W, Supercup)

Elversberg's win over Leverkusen was a huge early-season shock and shows they're capable of springing another, but a 4-3 defeat at Monchengladbach was a reminder of the defensive gaps a side of Bayern's quality could exploit. Bayern have scored 17 goals in their last four matches and arrive in irresistible form.

Prediction: Elversberg 1-4 Bayern Munich. Elversberg have shown they can score, but Bayern's current scoring rate makes a comfortable away win the clear favourite outcome.

3. Napoli v Bologna — Serie A, 17:00

Two sides short on results meet at the Maradona, with Napoli having taken just three points from three games and Bologna still searching for their first win of the season.

Napoli — recent results

  • Napoli 2-0 Genoa (W)
  • Como 2-1 Napoli (L)
  • Inter Milan 3-2 Napoli (L)
  • Napoli 0-1 Arsenal (L, Champions League)

Bologna — recent results

  • Bologna 0-1 Lazio (L)
  • Bologna 0-1 Atalanta (L)
  • Bologna 2-2 Sassuolo (D)

Napoli's collapse from 2-0 up to lose at Inter was a low point, and they've now lost their last three across all competitions including the midweek Champions League defeat to Arsenal, with Scott McTominay also sidelined for around two weeks. Bologna have shown fight, twice coming from behind against Sassuolo, but a winless start leaves them still waiting for their first three points of the campaign.

Prediction: Napoli 2-1 Bologna. Napoli need a response after a bruising week, and Bologna's struggles in front of goal should give the hosts an opening at home.

4. Brest v PSG — Ligue 1, 19:45

PSG head to Brittany full of confidence after thrashing Slovan Bratislava in midweek, against a Brest side unbeaten in three but still searching for the win that would kick-start their season.

Brest — recent results

  • Brest 2-1 Le Havre (W)
  • Brest 2-2 Toulouse (D)
  • Le Mans 2-2 Brest (D)

PSG — recent results

  • PSG 6-1 Slovan Bratislava (W, Champions League)
  • PSG 1-2 Monaco (L)
  • Lille 2-2 PSG (D)
  • Rennes 2-2 PSG (D)
  • RC Lens 1-0 PSG (L, Trophee des Champions)

Brest's win over Le Havre snapped a run of draws and gives them momentum heading into a daunting fixture. PSG's midweek rout of Slovan will have gone a long way to settling any nerves after a shaky run of domestic results, and Luis Enrique will hope his side can carry that form straight into Ligue 1.

Prediction: Brest 1-3 PSG. PSG's midweek confidence and squad quality should be enough to see off a spirited Brest at Stade Francis-Le Ble.

5. Real Sociedad v Atletico Madrid — La Liga, 20:00

Real Sociedad have found some form after a rocky start, while Atletico Madrid arrive on the back of consecutive defeats to Athletic Club and Liverpool that have dropped them to sixth in the table.

Real Sociedad — recent results

  • Elche 2-3 Real Sociedad (W)
  • Real Sociedad 0-0 Celta Vigo (D)
  • Real Sociedad 2-1 Espanyol (W)
  • Real Madrid 4-1 Real Sociedad (L)
  • Real Betis 1-0 Real Sociedad (L)

Atletico Madrid — recent results

  • Liverpool 2-1 Atletico Madrid (L, Champions League)
  • Athletic Club 3-0 Atletico Madrid (L)
  • Sevilla 1-3 Atletico Madrid (W)
  • Atletico Madrid 2-2 Villarreal (D)
  • Atletico Madrid 2-0 Malaga (W, friendly)

Real Sociedad have won two of their last three following a difficult opening to the season, and go into this with Alvaro Odriozola still sidelined and Jon Martin suspended. Atletico have now lost back-to-back matches for the first time this season, though Alexander Sorloth's fitness is the main doubt with Julian Alvarez expected to start after coming through the Liverpool defeat.

Prediction: Real Sociedad 2-1 Atletico Madrid. Atletico's recent slump and Real Sociedad's improving form at home make this a good opportunity for the hosts to cause an upset.
