About this listen

The Champions League is back — and Germany’s four representatives are all in the spotlight.

Harry Kane scored twice as Bayern beat Chelsea on Matchday 1, and now they head to Pafos looking to keep the momentum going. And why "boring" Bayern is a credit to Kompany...

Dortmund’s 4-4 chaos in Turin showed both their firepower and their fragility. Niko Kovač has them winning domestically, but can they find the balance in Europe when Athletic Bilbao come to town?

Leverkusen rescued a late draw at Copenhagen thanks to Grimaldo. Now PSV visit the BayArena in what feels like Kasper Hjulmand’s first real test on the continental stage.

And then there’s Eintracht Frankfurt. Burkardt, Uzun, and a new-look attack swept Galatasaray aside, but Simeone’s Atlético in Madrid will be a very different challenge. With Atleti’s defence already looking shaky this season, could Frankfurt be primed for another statement?

We also touch on Freiburg and Stuttgart’s Europa League assignments, plus Mainz’s return to Europe in the Conference League.
