Pedri’s injury nightmare, and are Leverkusen home and dry?
It's Jimbo and an interspersed Euro crew of James Horncastle, Raphael Honigstein, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo. We look ahead to the last 16 second legs of the Champions League, where Bayern’s hopes of silverware could be ended by Lazio. With Leverkusen 10 points clear, is that it for the Bundesliga title race? Real Madrid host Leipzig after a final whistle controversy at Valencia that sees Jude Bellingham sent off. And with Barcelona losing Pedri to injury again, we ask if his career could be a warning sign to Lamine Yamal? Kylian Mbappe is taken off again in PSG’s draw at Monaco. Does Luis Enrique have a problem with star players? And it’s time to sing the praises of Stuttgart who look certain to be in the Champions League next season, as do Bologna. Plus it’s been one of the best weeks in Mallorca’s history. Produced by Charlie Jones.
