This Sunday features some thrilling matches across all competitions, and we have picked the three best games happening on this game. In England, two powerhouses, Manchester City and Manchester United, lock horns in the Manchester derby. AC Milan, on the other hand, will be aiming to return to winning ways in Serie A when they host Genoa while Paris Saint-Germain and Lyon go head-to-head at Parc des Princes.

Manchester City have been plagued with inconsistency, and they head into this clash with just one win from their last ten matches across all competitions (D2, L7).
A 2-0 defeat against Juventus in the UEFA Champions League in midweek extended their winless run in the competition to three matches (L2, D1). This comes after playing out a 2-2 draw against Crystal Palace in the league.
When it comes to league form, Manchester United has fared much better than Pep Guardiola's charges in the last five matches, with seven points accumulated, three points better than their opponent's measly four. Their most recent league match ended in a 3-2 home defeat against Nottingham Forest.
However, the Red Devils did manage to regain momentum with a hard-fought 2-1 win against Viktoria Plzen in Thursday's UEFA Europa League fixture.
It's no hidden fact that Manchester City has been experiencing problems as of late. However, I believe they'll be able to utilize home comforts to their advantage and get back to winning ways. They have won five of their last six matches at home against Manchester United, which is why I recommend supporting them in the full-time market to secure a hard-fought win.

AC Milan vs. Genoa
AC Milan have not been at their best this season in Serie A. In fact, they have made a slow start, and they find themselves outside the top six and 12 points behind first-placed Atalanta.
After a 6-1 thrashing of Sassuolo in the Coppa Italia, Milan went on to lose 2-1 in the league against Atalanta. However, they did manage to regain momentum with a recent 2-1 win over Crvena Zvezda in the UEFA Champions League. This result means that they have lost one of their last nine matches across all competitions (W6, D2).
Genoa won't be fazed by the threat posed by their opponents in this upcoming encounter as they have seen a sudden resurgence in their performances.
After failing to win their last five matches, recording four losses and one draw, Genoa heads into this clash unbeaten in their last five matches (W2, D3). Their most recent league match saw them hold Torino to a goalless draw and will be anticipating a similar outcome.
Genoa might be underdogs in this upcoming encounter, but I do expect them to get on the scoreboard. In the past nine encounters between these two sides, six of those matches have seen both sides get on the scoreboard. This is a trend that I expect to see when they clash on Sunday.

Paris Saint-Germain vs. Lyon
Despite not being able to take maximum points in a goalless draw against Auxerre in their recent league match, PSG have now maintained a 14-match unbeaten run in Ligue 1 (W10, D4).
However, they did manage to restore their confidence with a commanding 3-0 away win to Salzburg in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.
The last time Lyon clashed with Paris Saint-Germain was in the Coupe de France, losing 2-1 on May 25. They will be aiming to avoid another similar scenario that could end their impressive run.
A 3-2 home win against Eintracht Frankfurt in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday extended their winning streak across all competitions to four matches while avoiding defeat in nine games (W5, D4). Prior to this, they secured a 3-0 league win against Angers on the road.
After their performance against Auxerre in Ligue 1, I think PSG will once again struggle for a favorable outcome here. However, I see this as a highly entertaining affair where both sides will be able to get on the scoreboard. Considering that the last three matches between these two teams have featured over 2.5 goals, I anticipate the same trend to continue here.
