Markus Fjørtoft and Jan Åge Fjørtoft preview two massive Champions League ties involving German clubs. Can Bayern continue their dominant Champions League record at the Allianz Arena? And can Leverkusen once again trouble English opposition?
Vincent Kompany’s Bayern are in strong form, with an 11-point Bundesliga lead, one of the most prolific attacks in Europe led by Harry Kane, and a strong record against Italian opposition. But can the last remaining Serie A team in the Champions League give Bayern trouble?
Meanwhile, Bayer Leverkusen head into their tie with Arsenal in solid form, losing only once in their last 12 matches across all competitions, but as Sport Bild reporter, Pippo Arens, warns, the team is getting tired. So what sort of trouble can they cause Arsenal?

Markus Fjørtoft and Jan Åge Fjørtoft break down a massive Bundesliga weekend, starting with Der Klassiker. Bayern go 11 points clear after a thriller at Signal Iduna Park, Harry Kane keeps stacking milestones, and Joshua Kimmich does it again in Klassiker with a late match-winner. We also talk through the investigative piece that breaks down the power dynamics at play in Dortmund. What now, with the season done, and what impact will this have for the summer?
Eintracht’s win over Freiburg wasn’t just about the win. It was about the control and kind of intensity that are starting to define Riera’s early spell. European spots realistic? We also discuss Nagelsmann's recent comments: who plays, who doesn’t, and the Woltemade question + the rest of Round 24.

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?

Vincent Kompany delivered a statement press conference that may define his Bayern tenure, while Harry Kane and Michael Olise continue to chase Bundesliga history.
Markus Fjørtoft and Jan Åge Fjørtoft break down and discuss Bayern’s leadership under Kompany. Plus, is there genuinely a title race after Dortmund’s late equaliser against Leipzig, should Deniz Undav should now be Germany’s first-choice number nine?
Markus examines the tightening relegation battle, where Union Berlin ended a seven-match winless run, Augsburg struck late to beat Wolfsburg, Freiburg pushed Gladbach deeper into trouble, and St. Pauli secured a rare win over Werder Bremen. How worried should the teams "too big to fail" be?
