Jimbo's got Julien Laurens, Seb Stafford-Bloor, Pol Ballús and Italian expert Max Callegari alongside him to recap all the latest action from across the continent.  Fresh off the back of last week's thrilling Champions League quarterfinals - it's back to domestic matters - but with a nod to the small matter of Arsenal v PSG and Barcelona v Inter just around the corner…  Back in Serie A, Napoli moved level on points with Inter at the top of the table after the Nerazzurri were beaten 1-0 by a stunning goal from substitute Riccardo Orsolini. So, could we be heading towards a play-off to decide who takes the Scudetto?! In Spain, Barcelona and Real Madrid scored dramatic stoppage-time winners to keep the La Liga title race alive ahead of Saturday's Copa del Rey final between the two. No such luck for Atleti though, who saw their slim title hopes dashed courtesy of a late defeat at the hands of our favourites Las Palmas.  Over in France, it's all eyes on Arsenal for PSG as they continued their march to an unbeaten league season with a 2-1 win at Le Havre. Marseille put five past Montpellier to take back second place from Monaco - but it's their plans for the rest of the campaign which have raised a few eyebrows…  And in Germany, the Bundesliga title race is all but over as Bayern Munich thrashed Heidenheim 4-0 to move eight points clear after Leverkusen were held at St Pauli. But could Xavi Alonso's focus be elsewhere with links to the Real Madrid job growing stronger? Produced by Lucy Oliva. RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1: Moments of the weekend - well, four French moments of the weekend (00.45) • PART 2: Serie A review - Orsolini stuns Inter as Napoli move level on points (06.30) • PART 3: Ligue 1 review - PSG prepare for Arsenal and Marseille head to… Rome?!

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?

Jimbo has Daniel Storey, Tim Spiers and Jay Harris for company on a historic weekend of football. Chris Waugh also joins us from Wembley after Newcastle finally win their first domestic trophy in 70 years, upsetting Premier League leaders Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final. All hail Eddie Howe and the job he's done at St James's Park. But did Arne Slot get it wrong on Sunday? And where was Mo Salah? It's a good weekend for Arsenal and Nottingham Forest in terms of securing their top 5 place while Man City are pegged back twice by Brighton. But it's another miserable afternoon for Spurs at Fulham and a record-breaking evening for Leicester against Man United. Plus there's points and pints for Vitor Pereira and thoughts on Thomas Tuchel's surprising first England squad. Produced by Charlie Jones.

Jimbo's joined by Julien Laurens, Pol Ballús and Seb Stafford-Bloor for a deep-dive into domestic and European matters across the continent.  Last week's Champions League first legs left some results more conclusive than others… we're looking at you, PSV 1-7 Arsenal! But there's still plenty of intrigue with the ties between Liverpool and PSG, Real and Atleti and Barca and Benfica finely poised.  In La Liga, Real warmed up for their trip across the capital with a 2-1 win over Rayo Vallecano, while Atleti were on the wrong end of that scoreline in a dramatic late defeat at Girona. Meanwhile Barcelona's game with Osasuna was postponed just 20 minutes before kick-off following the sudden death of first team doctor Carles Miñarro Garcia. In Ligue 1, PSG's B-team made light work of Rennes to move 16 points clear at the top of the table - while Paulo Fonseca began his nine month (!) touchline ban as he watched his side beat Nice 2-0 from the stands to put themselves right in the mix for European football next season.  Max Callegari - host of Pressing on Canale 5 - joins us to run the rule over all the Serie A action, which included humiliation for Juve, a first win in six for Napoli and spookily similar comebacks for Milan and Inter.  And in the Bundesliga, there was history as for the first time in nearly 20 years Bayern, Leverkusen and Dortmund all lost on the same matchday.

Jimbo is joined in the studio by Daniel Storey, Tim Spiers and Adrian Clarke as the race for Champions League football hots up. Arsenal can only draw at Old Trafford, allowing Liverpool's lead to extend to 15 points. With goals still proving an issue outside of Eindhoven, could their place in the top 5 be under threat? The same question has to be asked of Man City who lose to Nottingham Forest at the City Ground. How did Pep get Nuno'd again? Maybe the game of the weekend is at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as an impressive Bournemouth somehow only draw after taking a 2-0 lead. Would Andoni Iraola ever consider taking the Spurs job? Plus where it's going wrong for Cole Palmer and why it's going right for Crystal Palace. Produced by Charlie Jones.
