Liverpool vs Man City and 4 other games you cannot afford to miss as club football returns

Liverpool's clash against Manchester City headlines an exciting weekend of club football in Europe's biggest leagues. Club football is back this weekend, with many must-see matches to look forward to, including Liverpool's big game against Manchester City.

International football has grabbed the headlines over the last three weekends, but now it's time for club football to take the front-row seat again. This weekend brings many exciting matches, but we have selected the top five you cannot afford to miss.

Liverpool host Man City at Anfield If you are a Manchester City fan, it is important for you to savour this trip to Anfield because it might be the last time in a while you get to see your team play Liverpool in the Premier League. The Cityzens are waiting anxiously to see what punishment will be handed out to them, after an independent commission found them guilty of114 of the 115 Premier League financial charges brought against the club.

Although City have denied any wrongdoing, they are expected to be sanctioned heavily, with one of the sanctions likely to be instant relegation. With a potential relegation coming, Enzo Maresca's men will be looking to make the most of what could be their last trip to Anfield for some time.

They will be eager to silence Liverpool in front of their home crowd, considering the Reds are one of the clubs pushing for City to be punished severely. While Maresca's men will be fired up for this clash, they will definitely face a hostile Liverpool crowd, who will make Anfield a living hell for the away players.

Liverpool were one of the clubs that missed out on potential titles due to City's unfair financial advantage, having finished second twice during this period. With that said, it is the football that will do the talking once the whistle blows.

The omens look good for the Reds, though, as they have only lost three times at Anfield to City in the Premier League era. Arsenal are looking to bounce back from their defeat against Brighton Mikel Arteta's Arsenal will be looking to bounce back when they host Leeds in Saturday's lunchtime kickoff.

The Gunners remain the favourite to win the title again, but they were handed a reality check in their last clash following a 3-0 defeat to Brighton. It was an unexpected result considering Arsenal had been perfect before then, but they will be eager to show that it was just a blip when Leeds come into town.

Leeds will not be an easy game, though, as Daniel Farke's men are unbeaten so far in the league this season. The Whites come into this clash on the back of a goalless draw against Crystal Palace, having put four past Newcastle a few days earlier.
