Die Wölfe Host Freiburg

The hosts exploded from the gates with lightning intensity against the in-form Borussia Mönchengladbach seven days ago, rattling in three efforts inside the first 34 minutes as the home side glided to a convincing 3-1 away triumph.

Freiburg, by contrast, exhibited notable fortitude after Jobe Bellingham's 53rd-minute dismissal last weekend, recovering from behind to secure a valuable point against the formidable Borussia Dortmund.

Saturday's visitors, however, have found the going tough on their away assignments of late, collecting merely two points from the last 15 available away from home at Europa-Park Stadion.

PREDICTION: Wolfsburg to win either halves at 1.64

Stuttgart vs Hoffenheim

Stuttgart ended a troubling winless run and now trail their fifth-placed opponents.

Hoffenheim will arrive in high spirits. Christian Ilzer's side struck twice in each half against newly-promoted Hamburg in gameweek 14, cantering to a comprehensive 4-1 home victory.

The Stuttgart showdown possesses all the hallmarks goals aplenty.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.43

Bundesliga's Elite Collide

RB Leipzig held their draw for a mere three minutes against Union Berlin after Tidiam Gomis' equaliser last weekend.

The draw ended a modest unbeaten run and proved a disappointing outcome to narrow the deficit to Bayern Munich, who were held against Mainz 05.

Bayer Leverkusen, meanwhile, made no against newly-promoted FC Köln as goals after the interval from Martin Terrier and Robert Andrich confirmed a routine 2-0 win.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.46

De Kuip Showdown

Feyenoord arrive to their fortress at De Kuip seeking redemption after a chastening 2-0 defeat away to Ajax in the storied De Klassieker.

Twente arrive to Rotterdam with better form and renewed confidence. John van den Brom's side have tasted loss only once in their last dozen league matches.

Recent meetings between the sides have tended to produce goals rather than stalemates, even if final scorelines are often slender.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.52

AMEX Stadium Contest

Brighton's poor recent run continued at against the Reds as they endured a third match without victory in a row.

Sunderland's return to the Premier League achieved a new peak after they vanquished bitter rivals Newcastle to climb to within two points of the Champions League positions.

Saturday's fixture represents a testing journey for Sunderland.

PREDICTION: Over 1.5 Goals at 1.27

Primeira Liga Clash

Gil Vicente looks to be losing momentum after a remarkable start to the season.

Rio Ave have experienced considerable troubles off the pitch, which have carried over onto the field – only one win in their last five fixtures.

Saturday's contest may prove an significant fixture for both teams to arrest their present trajectory.

SELECTION: Gil Vicente to win either halves at 1.42

Spurs Welcome The Reds

Thomas Frank continues to feel mounting scrutiny after Tottenham delivered another dismal performance at the City Ground to experience a fourth league loss in seven.

Liverpool are a shadow of the team that claimed the title last season, but recent results from their last four fixtures demonstrates some sort of progress given how catastrophic their campaign has largely been.

Liverpool have struck 15 goals in their last three top-flight games against Tottenham.

VERDICT: Both teams to score at 1.56

Saints Host The Sky Blues

Jovon Makama struck a brace for a troubled Norwich side in gameweek 21 as Southampton were subjected to an disappointing away defeat at Carrow Road.

Winger Ephron Mason-Clark was the saviour for Coventry last weekend as his goal after the break proved enough to secure all three points against Bristol City.

Southampton's defence is weak and Coventry's shaky at times, so this game should produce goalmouth action.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.48
