Union Berlin vs. Borussia M'bach (Sunday, 2.30pm)
Union Berlin will be aiming to end the weekend top of the Bundesliga when they host Borussia Monchengladbach on Sunday.
The visitors, meanwhile, may require a positive result in order to stay in the top half of the table.
We say: Union Berlin 1-0 Borussia Monchengladbach
Gladbach's chances of gaining a positive result in Berlin are undoubtedly boosted by their opponents' involvement in Europe on Thursday, but we can envisage yet another narrow win for the hosts.
Farke's side struggled to create chances against Frankfurt last time out despite dominating possession, and it would be fair to assert that Union Berlin are a much tougher defensive unit to overcome.

Schalke vs. Freiburg (Sunday, 4.30pm)
Schalke 04 will be aiming to end a run of five consecutive league defeats when they take on Freiburg in the Bundesliga on Sunday.
The visitors, meanwhile, may require a positive result in order to remain in the top four positions depending on results elsewhere.
We say: Schalke 04 1-2 Freiburg
Freiburg may be a little tired from their European exploits on Thursday, but we expect them to have too much quality for Schalke in the end.
The hosts have lost six successive matches in all competitions and it is likely to take time for Reis's desired methods to have an impact, but they should show more fight than of late at least.

FC Koln vs. Hoffenheim (Sunday, 6.30pm)
FC Koln will be hoping that they can recover quickly enough in time for their match against Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga on Sunday.
The visitors, meanwhile, will be hoping to use their opponents' recent European exertions to their advantage having only won one of their last five league games.
We say: FC Koln 1-3 Hoffenheim
We can envisage Hoffenheim punishing Koln's tiredness and the amount of players that they have unavailable with an away win on Sunday.
The hosts feel like a team who could do with next month's World Cup starting even sooner than it does, with injury problems and fixture pile-up's mounting on Baumgart's shoulders.
