The Assist

The race for Europe’s biggest prize is reaching its dramatic finale, only four teams remain in the battle for Champions League glory.

Join Warren Ashurst and Jack Ogalbe as they break down the biggest matchups, key storylines, and players to watch in the semi-finals of Europe’s elite competition.

PSG face Bayern Munich in what promises to be a blockbuster encounter. Harry Kane will be desperate to boost his Ballon d’Or ambitions, and a Champions League triumph could be the final piece of the puzzle. But standing in his way is a resilient, battle-hardened Paris side ready to prove their credentials on the biggest stage.

Arsenal travel to Spain to take on Atletico Madrid. Despite a turbulent run of form, the Gunners come into this one with renewed confidence after a crucial win at Newcastle. Atletico, however, are a different beast, their rock-solid defence and tactical discipline make them one of the toughest teams to break down over two legs.

The run-in is ON — and everything is at stake. The title race, the battle for Europe, and the fight for survival come to a head this weekend. It's also FA Cup semi final weekend.

Manchester City continue their hunt for a domestic treble when they take on a surging Southampton at Wembley on Saturday. The Citizens look to be on a roll, but Southampton are on a 20 game winning run and have already proven they can cause a major shock.

Sunday sees a big rivalry renewed as Chelsea and Leeds clash in the second semi final. Things went from bad to worse for the Blues as Head Coach Liam Rosenior was shown the door after just over 100 days in the job and a pitiful midweek display away at Brighton in the Premier League.

Can Interim boss Callum Mcfarlane conjure up some magic for the lifeless Londoners? Leeds will really fancy their chances come Sunday.

Elsewhere in the Premier league, the race for survival continues to reach it's climax as Tottenham travel to already relegated Wolves. This is surely a game that Tottenham MUST WIN? Meanwhile, West Ham host Everton as David Moyes ventures back to one of his former clubs.
