Dortmund vs. Borussia M'bach (Saturday, 2.30pm)
Borussia Dortmund return to league action after the international break with a home clash against Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Edin Terzic's side will hope the break can help them reset after a troubling run of form, while the visitors remain marooned in mid-table.
We say: Borussia Dortmund 3-1 Borussia Monchengladbach
Gladbach have been very kind opponents for Dortmund in recent years, as the hosts have won the last 10 meetings here, and the Foals have not shown enough this season to suggest they can end that run.
Both sides have shown goalscoring form of late, and goals have been commonplace in this fixture too, as Dortmund have scored 49 in their last 15 home clashes with Gladbach, and the last three head-to-heads have produced 19 goals, with BVB winning the last two here by 6-0 and 5-2 scorelines.

Union Berlin vs. Augsburg (Saturday, 2.30pm)
Union Berlin will be desperate to avoid a 10th successive defeat in the Bundesliga when they host Augsburg on Saturday.
The visitors, meanwhile, are unbeaten in four league games and could move into the top half of the table with a positive result.
We say: Union Berlin 1-1 Augsburg
Although Union Berlin's sacking of Fischer was a desperately sad day for the club, in the end it was a decision that probably had to be made given their disastrous start to the season. Grote will hope to make an immediate impact, with this fixture likely to provide his best opportunity of doing so.
However, Augsburg have become tougher to beat in recent weeks, having drawn successive games 1-1. We can envisage a repeat scoreline in the capital on Saturday, with both teams likely to be content with avoiding defeat.

Freiburg vs. SV Darmstadt 98 (Saturday, 2.30pm)
Both teams will be aiming to return to winning ways when Freiburg host SV Darmstadt 98 in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Freiburg have failed to win any of their last three league games, while Darmstadt ended a three-match losing streak by drawing against Mainz 05 last time out.
We say: Freiburg 0-0 SV Darmstadt 98
Although Freiburg will expect to return to winning ways in this match, their extensive injury list clearly makes them a less effective team at present, and we can envisage the visitors making life difficult for their opponents.
Darmstadt will have taken great confidence from keeping their first clean sheet of the season against Mainz, and we would not be surprised to see them involved in another goalless draw this weekend.

Wolfsburg vs. RB Leipzig (Saturday, 2.30pm)
Wolfsburg will be desperate to end a run of five matches without a league win when they host RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
The visitors need a positive result to ensure that they remain in the Champions League qualification places.
We say: Wolfsburg 1-2 RB Leipzig
Wolfsburg's league form dropped off a cliff prior to the international break, so Kovac will be hoping that the timing of it has worked in his side's favour. They will take some confidence from beating Leipzig in the DFB-Pokal last month.
However, Die Roten Bullen have become a consistent outfit under Rose, with Openda only one goal from moving into double figures in the Bundesliga. We expect the visitors to have a little bit too much firepower in the end.

Werder Bremen vs. B. Leverkusen (Saturday, 2.30pm)
An imperious Bayer Leverkusen side return to action with an away trip to the Weserstadion to face Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Xabi Alonso's side signed off for the international break with yet another win to maintain their place at the top of the table after 11 matches.
We say: Werder Bremen 1-3 Bayer Leverkusen
The fact Leverkusen are still yet to stumble suggests they could maintain their challenge at the top, and they should have enough to navigate their way past a potentially tricky test here against Werder.
Alonso will hope they can get through this week still on top and past Hacken with limited fuss in midweek, before a huge trip to Borussia Dortmund next weekend.

Frankfurt vs. Stuttgart (Saturday, 5.30pm)
Eintracht Frankfurt will be hoping to extend their unbeaten run in the Bundesliga to six matches when they host Stuttgart on Saturday evening.
The visitors head into the encounter six points clear of their opponents in the table, having performed above expectations this season.
We say: Eintracht Frankfurt 2-2 Stuttgart
With Stuttgart having the option to combine Guirassy and Silas from the outset once again, they could pose Frankfurt plenty of problems. The hosts have only averaged conceding one goal per game this season, but showed some vulnerabilities when drawing 2-2 against Werder Bremen last time out.
However, only unbeaten sides Bayer Leverkusen and Bayern Munich have lost fewer times than Frankfurt (once) in the Bundesliga this season, and we can envisage them being involved in another thrilling draw on Saturday evening.
