Volkswagen Arena Showdown

Wolfsburg emerged from the traps with stunning purpose against the in-form Borussia Mönchengladbach in their previous encounter, firing home three goals inside the opening 34 minutes as Wolfsburg sailed to a comprehensive 3-1 win at Borussia-Park.

Freiburg, by contrast, demonstrated admirable resilience after Jobe Bellingham's red card on the hour last weekend, recovering from behind to salvage a creditable point against the challenging Borussia Dortmund.

The Black Forest club, however, have found the going tough on their travels of late, collecting a paltry two points from the last five games' worth available away from home at Europa-Park Stadion.

VERDICT: Wolfsburg to win either halves at 1.64

MHP Arena Encounter

Stuttgart ended a troubling winless run and find themselves within touching distance of their better-positioned opponents.

Hoffenheim journey to Stuttgart brimming with confidence. Christian Ilzer's team struck twice in each half against newly-promoted Hamburg in gameweek 14, cruising to a commanding 4-1 win on home soil.

This fixture promises to deliver an open contest.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.43

Red Bull Arena Blockbuster

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

The draw ended a modest unbeaten run and represented a squandered chance to reduce the distance to Bayern Munich, who were held against Mainz 05.

Bayer Leverkusen, meanwhile, took no chances against Championship winners FC Köln as second-half strikes from Martin Terrier and Robert Andrich sealed a comfortable 2-0 home victory.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.46

Eredivisie Heavyweight Clash

Feyenoord head back to home at De Kuip seeking redemption after a humbling 2-0 reverse away to Ajax in the historic De Klassieker.

Twente arrive to Rotterdam with greater rhythm and renewed confidence. John van den Brom's side have suffered defeat on a single occasion in their last dozen league fixtures.

Historical encounters between the sides have tended to produce goals rather than stalemates, even if the outcomes are often narrow.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.52

Brighton vs Sunderland

Brighton's worrying sequence extended at against the Reds as they endured a third fixture without three points in sequence.

Sunderland's restoration to the Premier League reached a new peak after they toppled bitter rivals Newcastle to climb to within two points of the Champions League places.

The AMEX showdown constitutes a difficult away assignment for Sunderland.

SELECTION: Over 1.5 Goals at 1.27

Gil Vicente vs Rio Ave

Gil Vicente appears to be fading after a remarkable start to the season.

Rio Ave have endured some difficulties off the pitch, which have carried over onto the field – only one win in their last five fixtures.

The fixture represents an important match for both teams to halt their recent decline.

PREDICTION: Gil Vicente to win either halves at 1.42

North London Hosts Merseyside

Thomas Frank continues to feel intense pressure after Tottenham produced another dreadful performance at Forest to experience a fourth league reverse in seven.

Liverpool are far from the team that claimed the title last season, but four unbeaten games from their last four matches represents tentative recovery given how catastrophic their campaign has predominantly been.

Liverpool have scored 15 goals in their last three Premier League fixtures against Tottenham.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.56

Southampton vs Coventry

Jovon Makama scored a brace for a faltering Norwich side in gameweek 21 as Southampton were consigned to an disappointing reverse at Carrow Road.

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

Southampton's backline continues to struggle and Coventry's occasionally vulnerable, so this game ought to deliver goals.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.48
