THE TIMES
About this episode

Natalie Sawyer and Gab Marcotti are joined by Matt Dickinson and Bill Edgar after another Premier League weekend where the top two were victorious.


We look at the run-ins of Liverpool and Manchester City for any potential slip-ups. Will Rafa Benitez have something to say about the destination of the title?


With City and Liverpool continuing to rack up the points, is this title race good for the Premier League or does it show the disparity between the haves and the have-nots?


Ahead of the Champions League quarter-final second legs, we try to second-guess Pep and to make any kind of argument for a Manchester United victory in Barcelona.


And elsewhere this weekend, is Hasenhuttl heading for greater things? Plus Andre Gomes – handsome but horrible.
