Summary
Dotun and Andy are joined by Lars for today's continental capers, as we realise that even Europe's best-run clubs have to endure moments of tension from time to time.
Away from off the pitch shenanigans at the German champions, we wonder how Bayern will fare against Dortmund's free-scoring attack and free-pouring defence. We also recap a shameful day for Portuguese football and tip our hat to Atalanta, who lurk menacingly in the Serie A undergrowth.

| 0:14.0 | On today's edition, what on earth is going on at one of the world's best-run football clubs? |
| 0:20.0 | And will Bayern's Robert Lewandowski take out his frustration on Dortmund in this weekend's declassica? |
| 0:26.0 | Also, in Portugal, the Great Ben Feker, a 7-0 up against 7 men, including two goalkeepers, and at halftime they still don't win the match. |

| 1:00.0 | So first up, let's talk about Der Klassiker and D. |
| 1:04.0 | This legendary match up between two Germany's greatest clubs. |
| 1:08.0 | How's the history going back, what, 50, 55 years now? |
| 1:12.0 | Yeah, and it's interesting. The Klassiker always feels like it's come to mean Bayern versus Dortmund in recent years. |

| 1:40.0 | But Hamburg have been in that spot before. |
| 1:43.0 | And it goes back to I guess the feeling in German football is it's always who can beat Bayern. |
| 1:50.0 | That is the way the competition is framed. |
| 1:53.0 | And it's felt, I don't know what you guys feel, but it's felt to me at various points this season. |
