The slate of weekend soccer games shifts to the United States as the parity in Major League Soccer continues to stick out like a sore thumb. Entering the third week of the season, only four teams have won their first two matches thus far. Can they keep the good runs going or will they join others who have dropped points? Tottenham will also travel to Old Trafford and hope to win their third match on the bounce instead of reverting back to their roller-coaster form on the season while we close out with Serie A and its wide-open race for the scudetto.

The Serie A title race is a close one with AC Milan, Inter and Napoli only separated by three points. If any of them slip up, Juventus are waiting to pounce. The midfield duo of Hakan Calhanoglu and Nicolo Barella will be…
