Vance McCullough, the voice of @XFINITYSports, delivers his analysis of the five key games to watch online, paired with five Twitter follows to give you insider information on the matchup. Have a matchup that you’d like Vance to feature? Tweet @XFINITYSports with the hashtag #5ToFollow.

1. ACF Fiorentina vs. Parma FC

Details: Monday, September 30 @ 2:45 PM ET - Artemio Franchi Stadium - Florence, Firenze, Italy

Watch Here: beIN Sport on XFINITY

Why Watch: Matchday 6 in Serie A hits the pitch in Florence, Italy, as Parma welcomes Fiorentina for a Monday matinee. Fiorentina’s star striker, Giuseppe “Bambino” Rossi, is leading Serie A in goals scored (5) and will look to tack on another, but the goals don’t come easily against a Parma’s stingy defense. The recent play of these teams is an indicator that this is going to be a compelling match that you don’t want to miss.

2. Everton vs. Newcastle United

Details: Monday, September 30 @ 3:00 PM ET – Goodison Park – Liverpool, Merseyside, U.K.

Watch Here: NBCSN with XFINITY

Why Watch: An Everton team that has yet to taste defeat in the Premier League will host a tough Newcastle club in Goodison Park Monday afternoon. The Magpies have a pair of scorers in Hatem Ben Arfa and Loic Remy who could give the Toons their first loss of the season, but they will have to get the ball past Everton’s goalie, Tim Howard. Howard is as tough as they come with eight saves on the season and three clean sheets. How hard is it to score on Howard? Stream this match Monday to find out.

3. Notre Dame at Michigan

Details: Monday, September 30 @ 7:30 PM ET

Watch Here: Big Ten Network on XFINITY

Why Watch: The game that began the Devin Gardner era at Michigan is live on the #B1G Network for a replay you don’t want to miss. The Big House was packed with 115-thousand plus, the Notre Dame vs. Michigan rivalry was under the lights, and it all came down to a pivotal play in the fourth quarter. If you are looking for an appetizer to #MNF, you’ve found it on the Big Ten Network! Make sure you’re streaming this game Monday night.

4. Miami Dolphins vs. New Orleans Saints

Details: Monday, September 30 @ 8:40 PM ET – Mercedes-Benz SuperDome – New Orleans, LA

Watch Here: ESPN on XFINITY

Why Watch: A pair of undefeated teams kickoff Monday night as the Dolphins and Saints are ready for some football. This is not bizarro world, but the Dolphins are averaging more points on offense than the Saints (24.7), and the Saints defense is allowing fewer points than the Dolphins (12.7). Ryan Tannehill currently has a higher passer rating than Brees, but there are few connections in the NFL better than Brees to Graham. Look for plenty of points on the scoreboard and a great game during #MNF.

5. California vs. Oregon

Details: Tuesday, October 1 @ 4:00 PM ET

Watch Here: Pac-12 Network on XFINITY

Why Watch: The #Pac12’s game of the day is a classic matchup from the Golden Bears and Ducks. This game had moments to fill a highlight reel as Oregon’s Dennis Dixon and Cal’s DeSean Jackson were continuously making plays. This is one of the best fourth quarter comebacks I’ve ever watched and it is going to look even better on Tuesday. If you didn’t see it in ‘07, don’t cheat yourself of a great college football game!
