Arsenal have the league's best defense (5 goals conceded) but have not won a league game at Anfield in 13 visits since 2012-13, Opta says.

Harry Kane plays his first Klassiker as Ballon d'Or winner. NBC Sports reports that Vincent Kompany is unlikely to be on the bench because of illness, and that Jamal Musiala and Luis Díaz are out. Big-match page.
AC Milan v Inter. Inter are top on 25 points, level with Lazio. Milan are fifth on 18 after losing midweek. Milan have won the last three derbies and are unbeaten in seven straight against Inter (BBC). Inter are without captain Lautaro Martínez, according to Telemundo. Big-match page.
Chelsea v Man Utd. Chelsea are fifth. United are 16th and haven't won in eight games in any competition (Opta). There is a Halloween twist too: Chelsea are the only Premier League team to have played more than one home game on Oct 31 and lost every one. Cole Palmer is available again after serving his suspension. Big-match page.
Man City v Brighton. First hosts third. Brighton have scored 15 and conceded 2 in their last five league games (Understat). City lost their unbeaten record at Aston Villa last weekend.
Juventus v Napoli. Both are on 14 points, seven behind the top two. Napoli won 4-1 at Monza on Wednesday, but Massimiliano Allegri serves the second game of a two-match ban and Stanislav Lobotka is injured (Arena Napoli).
Lille v Lens. The Derby du Nord opens the weekend. Lille are third (15 points) and Lens seventh (13), but Lens have won three straight. Lille have won 10 of their last 11 home league games against Lens (LOSC).
Athletic Club v Real Sociedad. The Basque derby. La Real are fifth on 19 points, and Athletic are eighth with a game in hand. Big-match page.
Which games could have the most goals?
The numbers below are real: total goals in each team's league games this season (scored plus conceded, divided by games), from ESPN's tables, with expected goals (xG) for and against from Understat. The picks are our opinion, not a forecast.
| Match | Home team's games | Away team's games | xG for / against (home, away) | Why |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Barcelona v Alavés | 5.1 goals a game (40 scored, 11 conceded in 10) | 2.5 (14, 11 in 10) | 37.1 / 11.2; 14.6 / 11.2 | Barcelona's 37.1 xG is the highest of any team in this table |
| Werder Bremen v Hoffenheim | 4.1 (15, 14 in 7) | 4.0 (14, 14 in 7) | 11.7 / 12.2; 15.0 / 11.0 | The weekend's highest combined goals rate. Niclas Füllkrug leads the Bundesliga with 8 |
| Racing Santander v Real Madrid | 4.1 (15, 26 in 10) | 3.5 (25, 10 in 10) | 14.3 / 21.4; 25.2 / 11.3 | Racing have conceded 26, the most in La Liga, and Mbappé has 11 |
| Augsburg v Freiburg | 4.3 (17, 13 in 7) | 3.6 (16, 9 in 7) | 16.3 / 18.0; 12.3 / 9.4 | Augsburg allow more xG (18.0) than they create |
| Man City v Brighton | 3.6 (20, 9 in 8) | 3.8 (23, 7 in 8) | 18.9 / 10.0; 18.1 / 11.4 | City (18.9 xG) and Brighton (18.1) both create a lot of chances |
| Bayern v Dortmund | 4.4 (25, 6 in 7) | 2.3 (12, 4 in 7) | 25.9 / 6.5; 13.9 / 6.9 | Neither side has kept a clean sheet in the last four league Klassikers (NBC Sports) |
If you'd rather watch a low-scoring game, try Liverpool v Arsenal. Together the two sides average 2.3 goals a game. Opta says Arsenal have allowed the lowest xG in the league (6.2) and kept five clean sheets. Liverpool have four clean sheets in their last six league games.
Which upsets should I watch for?
These are our opinions based on the table and recent form, not predictions with odds.
- Chelsea v Man Utd. United are 16th and winless in eight. But Chelsea have won only two of their last 17 Premier League games against United (D8 L7, Opta).
- Liverpool v Arsenal. Liverpool are the home side, but Arsenal winning at Anfield would end a 13-game league drought there. A Liverpool win would pull them within three points of Arsenal.
- Schalke v RB Leipzig. Schalke are 16th but have conceded only 7 goals in 7 games. Leipzig have scored 20.
- Lille v Lens. Lens are on a three-game winning run and have scored in 15 of their last 16 away league games (LOSC), even though Lille have won 10 of their last 11 home league games in this derby.
- AC Milan v Inter. Milan are seven points back, but they have the better recent derby record.

What is at stake in each title race?
- Premier League: Man City 21, Arsenal 21, Brighton 16, Liverpool 15, Chelsea 13. The top four play each other this weekend: City v Brighton on Saturday and Liverpool v Arsenal on Sunday.
- La Liga: Barcelona 27, Atlético 25, Real Madrid 24. All three play teams in the bottom half: Barcelona host Alavés, Atlético visit Levante and Real go to Racing Santander.
- Serie A: Inter and Lazio 25, Roma 21, Como 20, Milan 18. Inter go to Milan, Lazio host Cagliari, Roma visit 17th-place Udinese and Como host Venezia.
- Bundesliga: Bayern and Dortmund 17, then Freiburg and Leverkusen 13 and Leipzig 12. The top two meet, so whoever wins goes top alone. Freiburg visit Augsburg, Leverkusen host Stuttgart and Leipzig go to Schalke.
- Ligue 1: PSG 17, Rennes 16, then Lille and Monaco 15 and Lyon and Paris FC 14. PSG visit last-place Le Havre (2 points). Paris FC v Monaco and Lille v Lens are games between teams near the top.
