Schalke vs. RB Leipzig (Tuesday, 5.30pm)
Crisis club Schalke 04 return to home comforts in the Bundesliga for the first time in 2023 when they host RB Leipzig at Veltins-Arena on Tuesday night.
The league's basement side suffered a 3-0 loss to Eintracht Frankfurt upon their return to competitive action, while Die Roten Bullen held Bayern Munich to a 1-1 draw.
We say: Schalke 04 0-3 RB Leipzig
History does not always repeat itself in football, but Leipzig have posted a trio of goal-laden successes versus Schalke with clean sheets in tow recently and should make lightning strike for a fourth time here.
Die Roten Bullen have struggled for inspiration and defensive resilience away from home all season long, but Rose's side have seemingly turned a corner on their travels and should have no problem deepening Schalke's demotion woes here.

Bayern vs. FC Koln (Tuesday, 7.30pm)
Bayern Munich will endeavour to make an immediate return to winning ways in the Bundesliga when they host FC Koln at the Allianz Arena on Tuesday night.
Julian Nagelsmann's side were held to a 1-1 draw by RB Leipzig in their first game back on Friday, while their visitors taught Werder Bremen a footballing lesson in a 7-1 mauling.
We say: Bayern Munich 3-1 FC Koln
Facing a steadfast Bayern backline is a different kettle of fish to tackling an out-of-sorts Werder Bremen side for Koln, who will nevertheless feel confident of breaching the Bavarians' depleted defence after their magnificent exploits in front of goal at the weekend.
However, Skhiri's ankle injury is not what the doctor ordered for Baumgart's side, who continue to struggle for resilience at the back and should be brought crashing back down to earth by the goal-happy champions.

Hoffenheim vs. Stuttgart (Tuesday, 7.30pm)
Hoffenheim will be looking to end a four-game losing streak when they welcome fellow strugglers Stuttgart to PreZero Arena on Tuesday night.
The two sides are separated by three points at the bottom end of the Bundesliga table, with Stuttgart occupying the dreaded relegation playoff spot.
We say: Hoffenheim 1-1 Stuttgart
This is destined to be a cagey affair between two sides struggling at the bottom end of the table, so Hoffenheim should be able to end their four-game losing run with a draw on home soil.

Hertha Berlin vs. Wolfsburg (Tuesday, 7.30pm)
Having posted differing results on their return to Bundesliga action, Hertha Berlin and Wolfsburg resume domestic duties at the Olympiastadion Berlin on Tuesday evening.
The hosts fell to a 3-1 loss to Bochum last time out, while Niko Kovac's men ran riot in a 6-0 thumping of fellow continental chasers Freiburg.
We say: Hertha Berlin 0-2 Wolfsburg
Wolfsburg boss Kovac will be forced into a couple of unwanted alterations for Tuesday's game, but the defensively-sound and clinical visitors will be expected to extend their impressive winning run here.
Hertha tend to do well on the goalscoring front at home, but Wolfsburg have tightened up at the back ten-fold over the winter period and should encounter few issues en route to another three points.
