Soccer Saturday: Miller picks FIFA U20 World Cup, plus Leipzig v Bayern, Barcelona v Valencia, Sporting v Porto, Hearts v Celtic

Cup matches are all over Europe
Published on: 

One of the best weekends in European football is the week after most of the leagues end.

It is cup final Saturday, with teams around the continent trying to lift one last piece of silverware before they scatter to all ends of the earth for the summer.

In Germany, Scotland, and Spain, the heavyweight championship sides (Bayern Munich, Celtic, and Barcelona) will take the best shot from the upstarts (RB Leipzig, Hearts, and Valencia), who would all consider a cup win a successful season.

In Portugal, Porto and Sporting will battle it out, with the loser heading into the break with nothing to show from this campaign.

Also, the FIFA U20 World Cup continues, with favorites France taking the pitch for the first time.
