The Totally Football Show with James Richardson

Villa v Bayern and Arsenal v PSG headline Champions League week


Listen Later

Pol Ballús, Julien Laurens, Seb Stafford Bloor and James Horncastle are alongside Jimbo for your weekly dose of continental action.

It’s matchday two in the Champions League and there are some particularly tasty ties to preview including 1982 European Cup final rematch Aston Villa v Bayern Munich and Arsenal v PSG.

In terms of domestic fortunes, Barcelona’s perfect start is over! Hansi Flick’s tinkering doesn’t pay off as they’re beaten 4-2 at Osasuna - while the Madrid derby ended all square in dramatic circumstances. 

The spoils were also shared in the big Bundesliga tie of the weekend - with Bayern and Leverkusen playing out a 1-1 draw. Dortmund bounced back from their 5-1 defeat by Stuttgart - but they made hard work of it having to fight back from 2-0 down to winless Bochum. 

Napoli are the outright Serie A leaders after their 2-0 victory over Monza - and Inter got back to winning ways in a five-goal thriller at Udinese. 

While in Ligue 1, PSG have officially made their best start to a season in seven years after Friday’s 3-1 win over Rennes - while Marseille were handed their first defeat under Roberto De Zerbi by Liam Rosenior’s high-flying Strasbourg.

Produced by Lucy Oliva.
