What do you think about discussing here (before every matchday) about the most intresting matches in domestic leagues?

At this weekend:

* Serie A - all Italian fans are waiting for Milanese derby between League champions INTERNAZIONALE and AC MILAN. Inter and Milan are separated by eleven places, but it isn't important... emotions and pressure must be!

* Turkcell Süper Lig - The runner-up FENERBAHCE plays away match with MANISASPOR (league leaders). There is only 3 pts difference between these 2 clubs in league table. It will be a difficult test for both sides.

* Liga Bwin - Portugese derby in Porto, Dragao Stadium. Two famous Portugese teams - BENFICA (after lost CL game 0-3 in Glasgow and win vs. Estrela) and FC PORTO (league leaders with only one lost game this season). Home side is an absolutely favourite, but everything is possible... everything will be clear on Sunday.

* Swiss Super League - GRASSHOPPERS meets with BASEL. The most well-known clubs from Switzerland. Both teams won their last matches (G. with Zurich 1-0, B. with St Gallen 2-1). Very prestigious game...

* Orange Ekstraklasa - WIDZEW plays at home against LEGIA. It is a really Polish classic! Widzew is back to the top division after 2 years break, Legia is the champion of Poland. Emotions in Lodz guaranteed.

P.S. Sorry for mistakes, I'm not good in English thx AlanK

The big game in Porto is Porto-Benfica. The Porto-Boavista game is on December 3.
The best game in Spain is Celta-Sevilla. Celta is off to a fairly poor start: 10th place, with ten points in 7 games, and faces their first group-stage UEFA Cup game against Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday. Sevilla is in 3rd place with 15 points in 7 games, only one point off the pace set by Barsa and Valencia. They have a bye in the UEFA Cup next Thursday, so look for them to go all out in Vigo. Prediction: a 2-2 tie.
Second-best game is Atletico Madrid-Zaragoza. Can Atletico shake off the curse of the witch of Ararat and come back after their 1-0 loss in La Coruna last week? Can Zaragoza follow up wins in San Sebastian and at home against Betis with a win in Madrid? Prediction: 1-1 tie, but a win for either team would be huge!

Israeli Premier League:
Hapoel Tel Aviv- Maccabi Tel Aviv
The hottest derbys in Israel and one of the hottest in Europe(or Asia whatever
Hapoel has a very important week. On Thursday it plays against Rapid Bucharst in Uefa Cup. Maccabi, the best team in the history of Israel, hasn't had a good start for the season, but the derby has his own rules.
Yalla Maccabi!

This is a nice topic but I would suggest it really belongs on Forum 2.

There we already have threads discussing the season in specific domestic leagues. England and Scotland here ,
France here , Scandinavia here , Bulgaria here , and Serbia (at least with links to Ignjat's pages) here .

More specific country threads (& more people contributing to those already running) would be very welcome.
