Five (5) Great Things To Watch Out For In Sports This Weekend. by zumen(m): 7:15am On May 30, 2015
This weekend is so filled with a lot of sporting activities. This is a rub down in sports of how the weekend will be. My advice to you out there is never miss out in any of this weekend great things to watch in sport.

1. Cup Final weekend across Europe

The European season is winding down and most of the major countries are climaxing with their domestic cups this weekend.

It’s a huge treat as Cup finals hold in England, Germany, France, Spain and Scotland.
In England, Arsenal are heavily tipped to retain the FA Cup and surpass Manchester United as the most successful club in the competition. They are both on 11 trophies each.
The Gunners face Aston Villa, who are wobbling seriously after a surge in form had seen them comfortably escape relegation and romp to the FA Cup final.

After losing their last two matches – 6-1 to Southampton, 1-0 to relegated Burnley at home – Villa are supposedly expected to be given a proper thrashing by Arsenal, but recent Wembley results suggest otherwise.
Curiously, since the new Wembley started hosting FA Cup finals, all eight have been won by one-goal margins.
Some encouragement for Villa, but they have a woeful head-to-head against Arsenal. They have won only three and lost 22 of their last 34 matches against Arsenal in all competitions.
Should Arsenal put the champagne on ice? The action starts from 5.30pm on Saturday.
In the other big Cup final this weekend,

Barcelona aim to secure the second leg of their dream treble when they face Athletic Bilbao from 8.30pm on Saturday night. Having won La Liga in some style, the next targets for Luis Enrique and his men are the Copa Del Rey and the Champions League for a super treble.
The devastating trio of Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez have been sweeping all before them since the turn of the year, but Athletic are no pushovers.

In France, PSG will claim a domestic treble of the Ligue 1 title and two Cups if they overcome second-tier Auxerre in this weekend’s final.
In Germany, will Borussia Dortmund give departing coach Jurgen Klopp a parting gift by defeating Wolfsburg in the DFB Cup final?
In Scotland, it’s rare not to see Efe Ambrose’s Celtic (or the fallen Rangers) in a Cup final, but it’s Inverness versus Falkirk this weekend for the Scottish Cup.
