Laurens' weekend preview: Mbappe's quest to overtake Ronaldo, Spurs-Liverpool search for form, more
"Every Friday, I pick the best or most exciting games not to be missed in the world of football each weekend. From derbies to top-of-the-table clashes, relegation six-pointers to world-class players facing each other or other interesting tactical battles, there will be something for everyone to enjoy. This week, we take you to England, Italy, Spain, France and Morocco for the start of a huge tournament, a potential record, some cup magic and some big-boys clashes!"
"Considering the current form of each team, this is not as big of a game as we would have liked, but it is still Tottenham against Liverpool, two huge clubs in the Premier League looking for form and consistency. The visitors said goodbye to Mohamed Salah (for now) after the win against Brighton & Hove Albion last week, but they are still looking for the right formula. What system is Arne Slot going to play? With who in it? How well will the Reds perform?"
Weekend football highlights include fixtures across England, Italy, Spain, France and Morocco, featuring derbies, top-table clashes, relegation battles, cup matches and tactical showdowns. Tottenham host Liverpool with both clubs seeking improved form and consistency; Liverpool recently parted with Mohamed Salah (for now) and are experimenting with systems under Arne Slot. Tottenham suffered a 3-0 loss to Nottingham Forest and showed no control with the ball, leaving questions about attacking structure under Thomas Frank and selection errors. Spurs may rely on transition play against Liverpool. Prediction: Tottenham 1, Liverpool 2. Kylian Mbappé has a chance to make Real Madrid history.
