The Bundesliga title race keeps getting more interesting each week. Yesterday, the chasing pack
of Schalke and Borussia Mochengladbach who were just a point behind leaders Bayern heading into
this weekend's games were both held to draws that saw them lose ground in the title race.
However, the shock result of the weekend was Bayern's 1-1 home draw with Hamburg.
After a month's hiatus (due primarily to an extended internet-free trip to India see below),
we're back with a TV guide to the weekend. As usual, we provide US TV listings with ET kickoffs,
since that's where we reside. For our non-US readers, we've included a link to livesoccertv.com
for each match.
So it appears Halloween hasn't ended for Real Madrid who
celebrated Cristiano's 100th goal last night with Raul Albiol aka
"el Enmascarado : The Masked One" (say it in a deep
voice, if you will please).

Group A
Bayern Munich vs Napoli from the Allianz Arena, Munich
The Bavarian giants have been in such great form as of late, their manager Juup Heynckes believes
that today's visitors from Italy should set up to counter attack them, and that's a fair point.
STARTERS
Vancouver Whitecaps will debut at the beautifully refurbished BC Place stadium this weekend against
long time rivals Portland Timbers. Should be a skeptical.
VIDEO OF THE DAY
The latest video from the Minnesota Stars follows them south to Cary North Carolina for the final
game of the regular season - a must win.
