Wolfsburg vs Freiburg

The hosts exploded from the gates with lightning intensity against red-hot Borussia Mönchengladbach last weekend, dispatching three goals inside the opening 34 minutes as they cruised to a commanding 3-1 victory on the road.

Freiburg, for their part, exhibited considerable character after Jobe Bellingham's sending-off last weekend, clawing back from behind to earn a hard-earned point against the formidable Borussia Dortmund.

The Black Forest club, however, have endured struggles on their road trips of late, gathering just two points from the last five games' worth available away from the comfort of Europa-Park Stadion.

SELECTION: Wolfsburg to win either halves at 1.64

MHP Arena Encounter

Stuttgart arrested a troubling winless run and now trail their higher-ranked opponents.

Hoffenheim will arrive riding a wave of momentum. Christian Ilzer's team found the net twice in each half against Championship winners Hamburg in gameweek 14, cantering to a convincing 4-1 win on home soil.

This fixture possesses all the hallmarks an open contest.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.43

Bundesliga's Elite Collide

RB Leipzig remained level for a mere three minutes against Union Berlin after Tidiam Gomis' leveller last weekend.

The draw halted 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, showed no mercy against newly-promoted FC Köln as late efforts from Martin Terrier and Robert Andrich sealed a comfortable 2-0 win.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.46

Eredivisie Heavyweight Clash

Feyenoord head back to home at De Kuip eager to atone after a sobering 2-0 reverse away to Ajax in the historic De Klassieker.

Twente travel to Rotterdam with greater rhythm and less baggage. John van den Brom's side have tasted loss only once in their last twelve league matches.

Historical encounters between the sides have consistently delivered attacking fare, even if the outcomes are often narrow.

PREDICTION: Both teams to score at 1.52

Brighton vs Sunderland

Brighton's worrying sequence continued at Anfield as they endured a third fixture without three points in a row.

Sunderland's comeback to the Premier League reached a new peak after they toppled arch-enemies Newcastle to climb to within two points of the Champions League positions.

This is a testing away assignment for Sunderland.

PREDICTION: Over 1.5 Goals at 1.27

Portuguese Encounter

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

Rio Ave have experienced some difficulties off the pitch, which have transferred onto the playing surface – merely three points in their last five fixtures.

This could be an important match for both teams to reverse their present trajectory.

PREDICTION: Gil Vicente to win either halves at 1.42

Tottenham vs Liverpool

Thomas Frank remains under mounting scrutiny after Tottenham turned in another dismal performance at the City Ground to endure a fourth league loss in seven.

Liverpool are far from the team that won the title last season, but recent results from their last four matches constitutes modest improvement given how disastrous their campaign has generally been.

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

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.56

St Mary's Stadium Showdown

Jovon Makama struck a brace for a troubled Norwich side in gameweek 21 as Southampton were consigned to an disappointing loss on the road at Carrow Road.

Winger Ephron Mason-Clark was the saviour for Coventry last weekend as his second-half opener proved enough to secure all three points against Bristol City.

Southampton's rearguard remains porous and Coventry's shaky at times, so this fixture should produce goals.

SELECTION: Both teams to score at 1.48
