Episode notes

Jimbo, James Horncastle, Rafa Honigstein, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo are back ahead of some mouth-watering Champions League second legs.

Dortmund prepare for Sevilla by losing a classic Klassiker. Pirlo’s Juventus face a season-defining fixture against Porto. And can Leipzig add to Liverpool’s misery?

No Ligue 1 action but the Coupe de France delivers with amateurs beating professionals left and right. Marseille are the highest profile casualties.

In Spain, Laporta wins the election at Barcelona, Atletico are pegged back by Real in the derby and Athletic Bilbao are preparing for two cup finals in two weeks.

Plus Lewandowski, Cosmi and how we can all be Zlatan.
