Summary

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.
