Guardiola looking to banish memories of Bernabeu bedlam

Jimbo, James Horncastle, Raphael Honigstein, Julien Laurens and Alvaro Romeo are with you earlier than usual ahead of a massive midweek of European football.

Man City travel to Madrid in a rematch of last year’s Champions League semi-final. Can Real halt Haaland? Can City vanquish Vinicius?

The fitness of Rafael Leao is the big concern for Milan as they prepare for the derby with Inter in the other semi-final.

In the Europa League, can apprentice Alonso get one over master Mourinho? And will Mourinho be wearing a wire?

Michiel Jongsma joins us to outline AZ Alkmaar’s chances in their Conference League semi against West Ham.

Plus the game of the season in Europe’s top 5 leagues and the worst miss in xG history.
