Show Notes
Patrick and Neel run through the top four races in Spain and Italy for 2026/27. Can Real Madrid deliver a first title in three years, or does the whole race come down to how bad Barcelona's injury situation gets? Is Atletico's squad still built for Simeone ball? And in Italy, have Juventus and Milan's spending actually closed the gap on Inter? Let us know what you think in the comments!
