Stuttgart vs. B. Leverkusen (Sunday, 2.30pm)
Two of the surprise packages in the Bundesliga this season will go head-to-head when Stuttgart host Bayer Leverkusen on Sunday.
Stuttgart have won three successive matches to move into third spot in the table, while Bayer Leverkusen remained top despite drawing at home to Borussia Dortmund last weekend.
We say: Stuttgart 2-2 Bayer Leverkusen
With only the reigning champions Bayern scoring more goals than these two sides in the Bundesliga so far this season, it would be a major surprise if those in attendance at MHPArena and watching on from home are not treated to plenty of goals on Sunday.
Wirtz's potential absence through injury would be a major blow for Leverkusen, who may need to avoid defeat to return to the top of the table. Stuttgart are yet to draw a league game this season, but we can envisage them sharing the spoils for the first time this weekend.

FC Koln vs. Mainz (Sunday, 4.30pm)
FC Koln will be looking to record successive victories when they host Mainz 05 in the Bundesliga on Sunday.
The visitors, meanwhile, saw their unbeaten run of four matches come to an end at the hands of Freiburg last weekend.
We say: FC Koln 1-1 Mainz 05
No team has scored fewer goals than these two sides in the Bundesliga so far this season, meaning we are unlikely to see either goalkeeper troubled on too many occasions at RheinEnergieStadion on Sunday.
With both sides appearing set for relegation battles despite previously enjoying a rise up the table in the last couple of years, we can envisage them sharing the spoils with little to split them in terms of quality.
