LONDON—New economic forecasts from the European Commission and services PMIs will help clarify the outlook for the euro zone economy after third-quarter growth disappointed, while midterm elections and a Federal Reserve meeting top the U.S. agenda.

The European Union’s executive will publish its quarterly economic forecasts on Nov. 8 for the 28 EU member countries—including Britain, which is due to leave the bloc in March—and for the eurozone as a whole.
