Real Madrid versus Inter and Atalanta v Liverpool are the headline acts of this European midweek, with Leipzig also facing PSG in a rematch of last season’s semi-final.
We look at Lionel Messi’s rapidly declining numbers and ask if he needs to adapt his game at Barcelona. He could take a page out of Zlatan’s book, who has led the Mighty Ducks of Milan to the top of Serie A.
Elsewhere, Sociedad and Sassuolo stay flying high. And AVB goes back to Porto with Marseille – will he refer to himself in the third person again?
