Volkswagen Arena Showdown

Die Wölfe burst from the gates with lightning intensity against red-hot Borussia Mönchengladbach seven days ago, rattling in three goals inside the opening 34 minutes as Wolfsburg sailed to a comprehensive 3-1 away triumph.

Freiburg, by contrast, displayed notable fortitude after Jobe Bellingham's sending-off last weekend, fighting from behind to earn a valuable point against a strong Borussia Dortmund.

Christian Streich's charges, however, have experienced difficulty on their away assignments of late, accumulating a paltry two points from the last fifteen available away from home at Europa-Park Stadion.

VERDICT: Wolfsburg to win either halves at 1.64

Baden-Württemberg Derby

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

Hoffenheim journey to Stuttgart brimming with confidence. Christian Ilzer's team found the net twice in each half against newly-promoted Hamburg in gameweek 14, cantering to a convincing 4-1 triumph at the PreZero Arena.

The Stuttgart showdown promises to deliver an open contest.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.43

Bundesliga's Elite Collide

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

That result arrested a three-game unbeaten streak and proved a disappointing outcome to close the gap to Bayern Munich, who were held against Mainz 05.

Bayer Leverkusen, by contrast, made no mistake against the promoted FC Köln as goals after the interval from Martin Terrier and Robert Andrich confirmed a comfortable 2-0 win.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.46

De Kuip Showdown

Feyenoord return to home at De Kuip seeking redemption after a chastening 2-0 loss away to Ajax in the venerable De Klassieker.

Twente journey to Rotterdam with better form and renewed confidence. John van den Brom's side have lost on a single occasion in their last 12 league matches.

Historical encounters between the sides have reliably generated attacking fare, even if margins are often narrow.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.52

South Coast Versus Northeast

Brighton's poor recent run persisted at Anfield as they endured a third fixture without three points in sequence.

Sunderland's restoration to the Premier League achieved a new high after they toppled arch-enemies Newcastle to move within two points of the Champions League spots.

The AMEX showdown constitutes a difficult road trip for Sunderland.

VERDICT: Over 1.5 Goals at 1.27

Gil Vicente vs Rio Ave

Gil Vicente seems to be running out of steam after a impressive start to the season.

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

This could be an significant fixture for both teams to arrest their current form.

SELECTION: Gil Vicente to win either halves at 1.42

Tottenham vs Liverpool

Thomas Frank scrutiny after Tottenham turned in another dismal performance at Nottingham Forest to endure a fourth league loss in seven.

Liverpool are a shadow of the team that won the title last season, but recent results from their last four matches constitutes some sort of progress given how troubled their campaign has predominantly been.

Liverpool have struck 15 goals in their last three league encounters against Tottenham.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.56

St Mary's Stadium Showdown

Jovon Makama scored a brace for a troubled Norwich side in gameweek 21 as Southampton were subjected to an surprise loss on the road at Carrow Road.

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

Southampton's defence is weak and Coventry's not always secure, so this encounter promises goalmouth action.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.48
