Real got back to winning ways and back in first position after a Vini brace guided them to a 3-1 win over Villarreal. In Ligue 1, it’s awfully tight at the top after PSG were held to a 1-1 draw by Lille, with an Mbappe on the scoresheet… Marseille, Strasbourg and Lyon all sit just a point behind in what’s shaping up to be an exciting start to the season. And in Germany, you guessed it - Harry Kane’s broken another record! Bayern have won each of their first 10 competitive matches this season, with their number 9 becoming the first player in history to score 11 goals in the first six games of a Bundesliga season.Produced by Lucy Oliva. RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1: Moments of the weekend - and pineapple on pizza?

Then it's all eyes on the Premier League weekend - with the battle of the unbeaten sides at Selhurst Park, Arsenal trying to break their recent St James' hoodoo, Villa hoping to end their worrying start to the season - and Chelsea desperate to recapture some of that Cole Palmer magic after his remarkable first half showing in this fixture last year.All that plus stellar pitches, bucolic walks, tough interviews - and an unfortunate cameraman.

They maintained their two-point lead over Barcelona - who beat Getafe 3-0 - with Marcus Rashford starting on the bench due to his poor timekeeping… Over in France, we were made to wait for Le Classique with dramatic storms sweeping over the Cote d'Azur… don’t worry, Jules will give his reaction to *that* result next week! Thankfully, we were able to talk about a fiery Brittany derby and Monaco’s resurgent Ansu Fati. In Serie A, Juve were perhaps suffering from a UCL hangover as they were held to a frustrating 1-1 draw at Hellas Verona, while Lorenzo Pellegrini’s remarkable redemption arc at Roma continued as he scored the only goal in Roma’s first win ‘away’ to Lazio since 2016. And in the Bundesliga, you’ll never guess… Harry Kane is scoring goals! Three of them to be precise - taking his tally to 70 goals in 67 league matches. But he wasn’t the only British export bagging a dreierpack - with Oliver Burke getting three of his own in Union Berlin’s 4-3 victory at Frankfurt! Plus - we’ve got plenty of Ballon d’Or chat, loud helicopters and particularly cheeky Nandos… Produced by Lucy Oliva. RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1: Moments of the week & Ballon d’Or chat (00.40)• PART 2: La Liga review - Real keep winning with Madrid derby round the corner (20.55)• PART 3: Ligue 1 review - Emegha shows his commitment to Strasbourg (35.40)• PART 4: Serie A review - worrying times for Fiorentina, Lazio & Torino (44.35)• PART 5: Bundesliga review - goal machine Kane - and Burke! (54.35) Hosted on Acast.

The Euro crew are back as Jimbo, Pol Ballús, James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and Seb Stafford-Bloor (in person!) assemble for a bumper look ahead to Matchday 1 in the Champions League. Barcelona proved it’s a case of no Yamal, no stadium, no problem - routing Valencia 6-0 in front of less than 6,000 fans at the Johan Cruyff Stadium. But it’s Real who continue to set the early pace - reduced to 10-men but still able to get the better of Sociedad to maintain their perfect start to the season. The game of the weekend came in Serie A, where the Derby d'Italia certainly didn’t disappoint as the Thuram brothers took centre stage in a 4-3 thriller in Turin. Plus - Antonio Conte 2.0 shows he’s not as inflexible as everyone thinks - with his Napoli side coasting to a 3-1 win at Fiorentina to also make it three wins from three at the start of the campaign. Bayern warmed up for the visit of Chelsea with an emphatic 5-0 Bundesliga victory over Hamburg on Saturday, while Leverkusen got the post-ten Hag era off to a winning start in their 3-1 beating of Frankfurt - despite being reduced to nine men! PSG suffered injury blows aplenty in their 2-0 win over Lens which featured an emotional goodbye to one of their own - Presnel Kimpembe - after more than 20 years at the club.

Speaking of strikers - will the arrival of Rasmus Hojlund cement Napoli’s status as favourites for the Serie A title?  Next stop - Ligue 1 - where it was goals galore on Saturday, as Lille put seven past Lorient in an extraordinary second half showing and Toulouse v PSG finished 3-6 with a Joao Neves masterclass… where he scored a hat-trick featuring two overhead kicks! Over in the Bundesliga, Erik ten Hag’s short and fraught spell as Bayer Leverkusen manager was brought to a swift end following their collapse against 10 men in Saturday’s 3-3 draw at Bremen.
