The UFC returns Saturday with UFC Fight Night 36. Here are the five primary storylines to follow as we head into this weekend’s event.

UFC Fight Night 36 takes place Saturday at Arena Jaragua in Jaragua do Sul, Santa Catarina, Brazil. The event features seven prelims on UFC Fight Pass at 7:30 p.m. ET (4:30 p.m. PT), followed by four main-card fights on FOX Sports 1 (10:30 p.m. ET).

In the main event former light heavyweight champion Lyoto Machida (20-4 MMA, 12-4 UFC) takes on former Strikeforce champ Gegard Mousasi (34-3-2 MMA, 1-0 UFC). UFC President Dana White has said that a Machida win could put him next in line for the winner of May’s middleweight title fight between champ Chris Weidman and Vitor Belfort.
