Die Wölfe Host Freiburg

Die Wölfe burst from the blocks with lightning intensity against red-hot Borussia Mönchengladbach in their previous encounter, dispatching three strikes inside the opening 34 minutes as the home side glided to a commanding 3-1 victory on the road.

Freiburg, for their part, displayed admirable resilience after Jobe Bellingham's sending-off last weekend, fighting from behind to earn a hard-earned point against a strong Borussia Dortmund.

Christian Streich's charges, however, have experienced difficulty on their road trips of late, gathering just two points from the last five games' worth available away from home at Europa-Park Stadion.

PREDICTION: Wolfsburg to win either halves at 1.64

Baden-Württemberg Derby

Stuttgart ended a three-match winless streak and now trail their higher-ranked opponents.

Hoffenheim journey to Stuttgart riding a wave of momentum. Christian Ilzer's side scored twice in each half against Championship winners Hamburg in gameweek 14, cruising to a commanding 4-1 win on home soil.

The Stuttgart showdown should provide an open contest.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.43

Bundesliga's Elite Collide

RB Leipzig held their draw for only three minutes against Union Berlin after Tidiam Gomis' leveller last weekend.

That result ended a modest unbeaten streak and proved a missed opportunity to narrow the deficit to Bayern Munich, who dropped points against Mainz 05.

Bayer Leverkusen, by contrast, showed no mercy against newly-promoted FC Köln as goals after the interval from Martin Terrier and Robert Andrich secured a clinical 2-0 triumph at the BayArena.

VERDICT: Both teams to score at 1.46

Eredivisie Heavyweight Clash

Feyenoord return to the cauldron of De Kuip eager to atone after a humbling 2-0 loss away to Ajax in the historic De Klassieker.

Twente journey to Rotterdam with better form and less baggage. John van den Brom's team have suffered defeat only once in their last twelve league fixtures.

Historical encounters between the sides have consistently delivered attacking fare, even if the outcomes are often narrow.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.52

South Coast Versus Northeast

Brighton's troubling form extended at Anfield as they suffered a third fixture without three points in succession.

Sunderland's comeback to the Premier League reached a new peak after they defeated bitter rivals Newcastle to advance to two points of the Champions League positions.

The AMEX showdown constitutes a testing journey for Sunderland.

SELECTION: Over 1.5 Goals at 1.27

Gil Vicente vs Rio Ave

Gil Vicente appears to be losing momentum after a impressive start to the season.

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

The fixture represents an crucial encounter for both teams to halt their current form.

VERDICT: Gil Vicente to win either halves at 1.42

North London Hosts Merseyside

Thomas Frank continues to feel intense pressure after Tottenham produced another dismal performance at Forest to endure a fourth league defeat in seven.

Liverpool are far from the team that lifted the title last season, but four unbeaten games from their last four games constitutes modest improvement given how catastrophic their campaign has predominantly been.

Arne Slot's side have notched 15 goals in their last three league encounters against Tottenham.

VERDICT: Both teams to score at 1.56

Southampton vs Coventry

Jovon Makama scored a brace for a struggling Norwich side in gameweek 21 as Southampton were condemned to an unexpected away defeat at Carrow Road.

Winger Ephron Mason-Clark was the hero for Coventry last weekend as his strike turned out to be enough to earn all three points against Bristol City.

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

VERDICT: Both teams to score at 1.48
