Die Wölfe Host Freiburg

Wolfsburg emerged from the traps with stunning purpose against the in-form Borussia Mönchengladbach in their previous encounter, dispatching three strikes inside the initial 34 minutes as the home side glided to a commanding 3-1 victory on the road.

Freiburg, for their part, displayed notable fortitude after Jobe Bellingham's 53rd-minute dismissal last weekend, clawing back from behind to secure a hard-earned point against the formidable Borussia Dortmund.

Christian Streich's charges, however, have found the going tough on their road trips of late, gathering a paltry two points from the last 15 available away from home at Europa-Park Stadion.

PREDICTION: Wolfsburg to win either halves at 1.64

MHP Arena Encounter

Stuttgart halted a three-match winless run and find themselves within touching distance of their fifth-placed opponents.

Hoffenheim will arrive riding a wave of momentum. Christian Ilzer's side scored twice in each half against newly-promoted Hamburg in gameweek 14, coasting to a convincing 4-1 triumph at the PreZero Arena.

This fixture should provide goals aplenty.

VERDICT: Both teams to score at 1.43

RB Leipzig vs Bayer Leverkusen

RB Leipzig enjoyed parity for only three minutes against Union Berlin after Tidiam Gomis' equaliser last weekend.

The a three-game unbeaten streak and constituted a disappointing outcome to reduce the distance to Bayern Munich, who themselves drew against Mainz 05.

Bayer Leverkusen, by contrast, showed no mercy against Championship winners FC Köln as second-half strikes from Martin Terrier and Robert Andrich confirmed a comfortable 2-0 home victory.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.46

Eredivisie Heavyweight Clash

Feyenoord return to home at De Kuip eager to atone after a chastening 2-0 reverse away to Ajax in the historic De Klassieker.

Twente travel to Rotterdam with greater rhythm and less baggage. John van den Brom's team have lost only once in their last 12 league encounters.

VERDICT: Over 1.5 Goals at 1.27

Primeira Liga Clash

Gil Vicente looks to be running out of steam after a fantastic start to the season.

Rio Ave have endured some difficulties off the pitch, which have carried over onto the field – merely three points in their last five fixtures.

This could be an significant fixture for both teams to reverse their recent decline.

PREDICTION: Gil Vicente to win either halves at 1.42

Tottenham vs Liverpool

Thomas Frank remains under intense pressure after Tottenham delivered another abysmal performance at the City Ground to experience a fourth league reverse in seven.

Liverpool are far from the team that won the title last season, but recent results from their last four games represents modest improvement given how troubled their campaign has predominantly been.

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

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.56

Saints Host The Sky Blues

Jovon Makama struck a brace for a faltering Norwich side in gameweek 21 as Southampton were condemned to an surprise away defeat at Carrow Road.

Winger Ephron Mason-Clark was the match-winner for Coventry last weekend as his strike was enough to secure all three points against Bristol City.

Southampton's backline continues to struggle and Coventry's shaky at times, so this game ought to deliver attacking entertainment.

VERDICT: Both teams to score at 1.48
