• Will Arsenal suffer a Real Remontada? And can Bayern best Inter?

  Jimbo assembles his European comrades - Julien Laurens, Pol Ballús, Seb Stafford-Bloor and special guest Max Callegari - to round up all the latest domestic action and look ahead to the Champions League quarter-final second legs. Can Real overcome a 3-0 deficit and produce another special European night at the Bernabéu to stun Arsenal? Will Raphinha continue his extraordinary goalscoring form? Is there any way back for Aston Villa against the French champions? And can the meanest defense in Europe stop Thomas Müller signing off in style? We talk Kylian Mbappé’s terrible tackle, more misery at Marseille, the 2-2 Bayern v Dortmund deadlock and Claudio Ranieri’s remarkable Derby della Capitale record. Produced by Lucy Oliva.

• Newcastle take control of top 5 race as Forest and Chelsea make costly slips

  Jimbo has Duncan Alexander, Daniel Storey and Matt Davies-Adams for company as the race for Champions League football gets very interesting. Newcastle make light work of Man United with a 4-1 victory at St James’s Park. Are they the best team in the country right now. And could they finish 2nd? Chelsea come from 2-0 down to Ipswich to salvage a point but fan discontent grows at Stamford Bridge. And it’s squeaky bum time for Nottingham Forest who lose again at home to Everton. Could Moyes do a Nuno next season? Liverpool could win the title next weekend after Van Dijk’s late winner against West Ham. And we ponder the chances of the English clubs in the Champions League next week. Plus Villa Park is great, Spurs are a shambles and goal difference is a lie. Produced by Charlie Jones. RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1a: Newcastle 4-1 Man United (05.00) • PART 1b: Chelsea 2-2 Ipswich (11.00)  • PART 2a: Man City 5-2 Crystal Palace (18.00) • PART 2b: Nottingham Forest 0-1 Everton (23.00) • PART 3a: Liverpool 2-1 West Ham (30.00) • PART 3b: Arsenal 1-1 Brentford (34.00) • PART 3b: Southampton 0-3 Aston Villa (38.00) • PART 4a: Big weekend for Birmingham and the FA Cup (43.00) • PART 4b: Wolves 4-2 Spurs with Steve Madeley (46.00) • PART 4c: Brighton 2-2 Leicester (50.00) Learn more about your ad choices.

• Arsenal, Barca & PSG put on dazzling Champions League displays

  Jimbo’s joined by Natalie Gedra, Tom Williams and Duncan Alexander to run the rule over a breathtaking midweek of Champions League action. It turns out Declan Rice is a free-kick specialist?! Lamine Yamal is ludicrously good at football and the man old enough to be his dad Robert Lewandowski isn’t too bad either. PSG prove why they’ve been touted as favourites to win this competition after bamboozling a spirited Villa, plus dark horses Inter take an advantage back to the San Siro.  Away from all the European fun, another big week of Premier League football awaits.  Can Liverpool get back on track against West Ham? And is Mo Salah staying after all?! Can Manchester City get over their recent Crystal Palace hoodoo? Is this the weekend Newcastle take advantage in the race for a top five finish? And can Chelsea avoid the indignity of letting Ipswich do the double over them? Plus - how should decorated assistant referee Darren Cann sign off from his final professional appearance after officiating over 1000 matches?  Produced by Lucy Oliva. RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1: Arsenal 3-0 Real Madrid (05.00)  • PART 2: PSG 3-1 Aston Villa with Julien Laurens (15.00) • PART 3a: Bayern Munich 1-2 Inter Milan (25.10) • PART 3b: Barcelona 4-0 Borussia Dortmund with Pol Ballús (30.15) • PART 4: The Premier League weekend (38.40) Learn more about your ad choices.

• European elite await for Arsenal & Villa as quarter-finals commence

  Jimbo’s got Julien Laurens, Seb Stafford-Bloor, Pol Ballús and Michael Cox alongside him to get all warmed up for the mouthwatering Champions League quarter-final first legs. Arsenal v Real, Bayern v Inter, Barca v Dortmund & PSG v Villa await in a fascinating midweek of cup action. We look ahead to each of the ties. On the domestic front, the La Liga title race took another turn as Real Madrid were stunned by Valencia - while Barca were held by Betis but still extended their lead at the top to four points. But was it an opening they’ll rue not taking full advantage of come the end of the season? PSG officially wrapped up the Ligue 1 title with their 1-0 win over Angers - as their quest to go unbeaten continues. Behind them the fascinating race to be the best of the rest continues, with Marseille picking up a much-needed three points while Lyon and Strasbourg put the pressure on Monaco.  In the Bundesliga, Bayern showed their mettle to come from behind to beat a stubborn Augsburg 3-1, their first game since the news broke that club legend Thomas Müller is set to leave at the end of the season. Plus - Dortmund warmed up for their trip to Barcelona with an impressive 4-1 win at Freiburg - but with injury news that could scupper their chances…  And over in Serie A, Inter surrendered a two-goal lead against lowly Parma,Igor Tudor fires up Juve as they put an end to Roma’s seven-match winning streak, and Lazio go route one as they reignite their hopes of a top four finish.  Produced by Lucy Oliva.  RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1: Moments of the weekend & Champions League quarter-final previews (00.45) • PART 2: Ligue 1 review - PSG crowned as Marseille bounce back (23.40) • PART 3: La Liga review - Barca fail to capitalise on Real’s shock defeat (27.00) • PART 4: Bundesliga review - Dortmund dealt a huge injury blow as Muller signs off (36.30) • PART 5: Serie A review - Inter drop points as the hunt for Europe heats up (51.30) Learn more about your ad choices.

• Liverpool lose, Saints go marching down - and not even KDB can save dour derby

  Jimbo's got Matt Davies-Adams, Daniel Storey and Tim Spiers alongside him for a deep-dive into all the weekend's Premier League action. We struggled to stay awake through a thoroughly underwhelming goalless Manchester derby - but at least there's time to talk about Kevin De Bruyne being special. Liverpool's recent struggles continued as they were beaten 3-2 at Fulham with the help of some calamitous defending - is their season at risk ending on a sour note even if/ when they lift the Premier League trophy? Southampton were finally put out of their misery - becoming the first team ever to be relegated from the Premier League with seven games to spare. Elias Burke was at the Tottenham Stadium to see Spurs flatter to deceive again despite their 3-1 win. Wolves are all but mathematically safe and Vítor Pereira's out on the town, Palace v Brighton was ill-disciplined but good fun indeed - and is Mikel Arteta really the hottest manager in the top flight? Plus, we preview the huge midweek Champions League clashes that await Arsenal and Aston Villa, with Real Madrid and PSG lying in wait in their quarterfinal first legs. Produced by Lucy Oliva. RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1a: Man United 0-0 Man City + farewell KDB (05.30) • PART 1b: Fulham 3-2 Liverpool (14.25) • PART 2a: Tottenham 3-1 Southampton - Saints relegation confirmed (22.00) • PART 2b: Brentford 0-0 Chelsea (25.45) • PART 3a: Aston Villa 2-1 Nottingham Forest (31.45) • PART 3b: Everton 1-1 Arsenal (35.45) • PART 3c: Ipswich 1-2 Wolves (43.05) • PART 3d: West Ham 2-2 Bournemouth (53.00) • PART 3e: Crystal Palace 2-1 Brighton (55.30) Learn more about your ad choices.
