There's no 'good time' to play Bayern Munich, but in the form they've been in this season, any Bundesliga side would rightly head into that game expecting a thrashing. Borussia Dortmund gave them a right good go! Ultimately though, there simply is no stopping the juggernaut that Vincent Kompany has assembled.Archie Rhind-Tutt was at Signal Iduna Park and joined Andy Brassell to dissect a thriller in North Rhine-Westphalia.Ask us a question on X, Instagram and TikTok, and email us here: otc@footballramble.com.For ad-free shows, head over to our Patreon and subscribe: patreon.com/footballramble.***Please take the time to rate and review us on Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your pods.

What do Tottenham Hotspur, Ajax Amsterdam, Bayern Munich and Austria Vienna have in common? They all, for better, or for worse, have come to be seen as “Jew Clubs” throughout their history. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Sometimes the club embraced it, often it didn't. "Jew Clubs" - not Jewish clubs, not founded as a Jewish sports society or anything like that. But clubs that have become a canvas for the performance of Jewishness, of antisemitism and also of philosemitism. What does that say about these clubs is one question. What does it say about Europe's broader cultural and political discourse? That's another. What it says about Jews in those clubs is one question - what it says about how Jewishness is constructed is another.Pavel Brunssen has written a fascinating book on it. He is a Research Associate and Alfred Landecker Lecturer at the Research Center on Antigypsyism at Heidelberg University. There are a lot of voices from fans, from media, from online discourse in this book - and it's an academic book as well. HELPFUL LINKS FOR THIS EPISODE:NEW: send me a text message!

The Bundesliga Diaries are back with their February 2026 episode! This month, the boys discuss the upcoming Klassiker between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich, new managers at Eintracht Frankfurt and Werder Bremen, and much more.

Borussia Dortmund saw their Champions League bid extinguished in Bergamo on Wednesday but they need to pick themselves up quickly for a crucial Der Klassiker at the Westfalenstadion on Saturday.Bayern Munich hold an eight-point lead over Dortmund at the top of the Bundesliga so a win for the hosts would give them a glimmer of hope in the title battle, while a defeat would effectively end their chances and a draw isn't much use either.

After another successful midweek in the Champions League, The Soccer Sharps betting podcast returns to cover the upcoming weekend in European football. Today's show covers some of the biggest matches taking place in the Premier League, Bundesliga, Serie A, and La Liga. Our hosts and handicappers, Devin and Jordan, offer their expert insight and analysis as they preview each match. The show closes out with our best bets and Official Plays. 00:00 Introduction 03:43 BvB Dortmund vs Bayern Munich 12:37 Arsenal vs Chelsea 20:14 Leeds United vs Manchester City 27:00 Liverpool vs West Ham United 36:06 Manchester United vs Crystal Palace 41:22 Roma vs Juventus 46:29 Barcelona vs Villarreal 49:52 Official Plays

London is divided. This week's Game of the Week is Arsenal vs Chelsea, and there's serious implications on the line. We break down tactics, key matchups, expected goals trends, and where the betting value is hiding. Andrew Passaro is joined by Jon "Buckets" Eimer as they talk about their favorite bets in the Premier League this weekend. We also hit the Bundesliga's biggest rivalry — Borussia Dortmund vs Bayern Munich — and talk best bets, goal angles, and whether this one lives up to the hype.

Borussia Dortmund were eliminated from Europe after surrendering a two-goal advantage against Atalanta, raising fresh questions about mentality ahead of Der Klassiker.Markus Fjørtoft and Jan Åge Fjørtoft analyse Niko Kovač's Dortmund project, examine whether the European collapse changes the Bundesliga title narrative, and debate what Dortmund actually want as a club after moving on from Edin Terzić and Nuri Şahin. We also assess Bayern Munich's position at the top as "history-makers", with Kane chasing Lewandowski's "impossible" record. Can he beat it? Pluss, is the title race still on if Dortmund win?

Dan Roebuck, Steve Wyss, and James Easton discuss the fallout from the Champions League matches and preview the best bets, value plays and odds movement in the top European soccer matches of the weekend. Betting strategies for Der Klassiker between Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich take center stage. 00:00 Introduction 03:25 Inter Milan vs. Genoa 06:35 Verona vs. Napoli Borussia Monchengladbach vs. Union Berlin 12:20 Eintracht Frankfurt vs. Freiburg 13:40 Borussia Dortmund vs. Bayern Munich 19:00 Hamburger vs. RB Leipzig 20:50 Rennes vs. Toulouse 26:50 Lorient vs. Auxerre 28:35 Lille vs. Nantes 31:05 Monaco vs. Angers 33:05 Marseille vs. Lyon 36:15 Oviedo vs. Atletico Madrid 38:35 Elche vs. Espanyol 40:35 Cremonese vs. AC Milan 42:15 Torino vs. Lazio 43:50 AS Roma vs. Juventus

Borussia Dortmund crash out of the Champions League, losing 4-1 away to Atalanta. And misery could swiftly continue as they host Bayern Munich next. Can the Black and Yellows sooth Stefan's soul by winning on Saturday or will the doom spiral extend? All that and Kaua Prates, the young Brazilian left-back officially joining in the summer on Episode 530 of the Yellowwallpod.

Sports journalist Steve Goldberg joins the show to share his incredible stories covering the 1986 World Cup, witnessing Diego Maradona's 'Hand of God', sneaking into a Bayern Munich tryout, and the early days of Charlotte soccer history with the Carolina Lightnin'.

On this week's main show, Manu and Dan break down the biggest talking points of Bundesliga matchday 23. They kick things off with Bayern Munich's 3-2 win over Frankfurt. Who was to blame for the almost-Frankfurt comeback, and does the club have a leadership issue with Joshua Kimmich as captain? The two also dive into Vincent Kompany's comments on the racism incident during the Benfica-Real Madrid match. Then the two focus on Dortmund. After dropping two points against Leipzig, are they now out of the title race? Enjoy! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

RB Leipzig look to steady themselves after slipping out of the Bundesliga's top four, but they face the worst possible opponent as an in‑form Borussia Dortmund arrive at the Red Bull Arena on Saturday. Ole Werner's record against Dortmund offers little comfort either, with the Leipzig boss failing to win seven of his eight meetings with BVB. Leipzig have also yet to beat any of the current top three this season, which further tilts the balance toward the visitors.

Lisa Carlin, Darian Jenkins, and McCall Zerboni kick off by celebrating the U.S. Women's Olympic Gold in hockey (02:30), then dive into the UEFA Women's Champions League Playoff second legs (06:30). Manchester United impress in their inaugural UWCL run with a 5-0 aggregate over Atlético Madrid, while Wolfsburg upend Juventus and bust a few brackets along the way! Next, the crew breaks down the mouthwatering quarterfinals: Barcelona vs. Real Madrid, Arsenal vs. Chelsea, Manchester United vs. Bayern Munich, and Wolfsburg vs. OL Lyonnes (11:15).

In England, Manchester City entered as a one and a half goal home favorite against Fulham, with notable juice shading toward the road side despite City's push to reestablish themselves in the title race. Warner pointed to City's scoring ceiling while acknowledging the volatility that accompanies backing a favorite capable of conceding a single goal and still jeopardizing margin coverage . Aston Villa, listed as a half goal favorite over Brighton, drew attention for total movement around two and a half, with discussion of a potential shift to two and three quarters and the value mechanics embedded in split totals . Nottingham Forest laid three quarters of a goal to Wolverhampton, one of the league's worst statistical profiles, with the total at two and a half leaning under in what projected as a low event match . Crystal Palace hosted Burnley as a one goal favorite in a matchup defined by offensive limitations and interest in the under two and a half . Sunderland caught three quarters of a goal at home to Liverpool, with Warner expressing skepticism toward Liverpool's form despite last season's title run . In Spain's Copa del Rey semifinal first leg, Athletic Club Bilbao sat a quarter goal favorite over Real Sociedad in a Basque rivalry expected to be physical and conservative, with the total at two and a quarter drawing under consideration . Italy's cup slate featured Bologna as a quarter goal favorite over Lazio in a single leg setting, with the total shaded over two but interest leaning toward the under and the underdog in a potentially cautious affair . In Germany, Bayern Munich were installed as one and three quarter goal favorites against RB Leipzig with a total of four, a number reflecting Bayern's dominant form and prior six nil result in the same venue . Transitioning to college basketball, Warner surveyed marquee matchups including Illinois at Maryland, USC at Ohio State, Florida at Georgia, Alabama at Mississippi, and Connecticut at Butler, highlighting scheduling dynamics, road splits, and coaching performance across conferences . He closed with a promotional code offering twenty percent off at Pregame.com before delivering his best bet, Tulane plus one at home against Temple, citing confidence in Tulane's home performance and skepticism toward Temple's current trajectory Learn more about your ad choices.
