Summary

We caught up with German football expert Mark Lovell to get the lowdown on Bayern Munich for a podcast preview of tonight’s massive Champions League last-16 second-leg tie at the Allianz Arena. Mark is based in Bavaria, and is the Bayern correspondent for ESPN, so he is perfectly placed to tell us how Niko Kovac’s side are shaping up for the visit of Liverpool. He also explains the big problem caused by Joshua Kimmich’s suspension and why the pressure is on Robert Lewandowsi to deliver. Mark covered Jurgen Klopp’s move from Borussia Dortmund to Liverpool extensively and he explains how he feels the Reds manager has developed at Anfield and why he would – Kevin Keegan style – just love it to beat Bayern in their own background. And there’s also a very interesting take on which current Bundesliga star will one day play for Klopp (again).
