It’s all to play for on both ends of the table as Dortmunt maintain the pressure at the top, while five teams are fighting for survival in the Bundesliga.
Friday 10 March
Cologne 7/10 | Draw 29/10 | Bochum 4/1 (21:30)
Bundesliga action continues this Friday at the RheinEnergieStadion where Cologne welcome bottom-of-the-pile Bochum. Both sides have failed to find the back of the net in recent fixtures. Cologne’s last result, however, was a good one in terms of place and opposition – a 0-0 draw away from home to Union Berlin. Back the home win at 7/10.
Saturday 11 March
Bayern Munich 1/7 | Draw 8/1 | Augsburg 16/1 (16:30)
Bayern Munich are finally kicking things into gear, and it is no coincidence that it coincides with the Champions League. Bayern lost 1-0 to Augsburg at the beginning of the season but got revenge in the DFB Pokal with a 5-2 victory away from home, now at the Allianz Arena you can expect another bloodbath. Bayern Munich and Over 3.5 Goals is tipped at 7/10.
Eintracht Frankfurt 9/10 | Draw 26/10 | Stuttgart 29/10 (16:30)
Both Eintracht Frankfurt and Stuttgart are struggling for form, going winless in their last two Bundesliga fixtures. For Eintracht, the UCL has been a disturbance, and losing their first leg 2-0 to Napoli has slightly derailed their shot at qualifying for the competition next season. Still, Frankfurt are considerable favourites here.
Hertha Berlin 19/10 | Draw 24/10 | Mainz 29/10 (16:30)
Mainz are the second-best team since the return of the Bundesliga and their recent hard fought 1-0 victory over Hoffenheim continues to justify this label. Hertha Berlin is a tough ask away from home, and the Win/Draw Double Chance in favour of the away team is a decent play.
RB Leipzig 9/20 | Draw 4/1 | Borussia Monchengladbach 56/10 (16:30)
Borussia Monchengladbach’s inconsistency has undermined their shot at a top-half finish, but the 0-0 draw against Freiburg was a very promising display. RB Leipzig have proved far better than M’gladbach’s last opponents, and although he misfired on his return after a lengthy injury, Christopher Nkunku posed a massive threat in their 2-1 loss against Borussia Dortmund. Back the home team convincingly.
Schalke 4/1 | Draw 33/10 | Borussia Dortmund 6/10 (19:30)
Borussia Dortmund showed great defensive structure in the 2-1 victory over tough opponents RB Leipzig. Against the bottom end of the table, Schalke, Dortmund can maintain pressure on eternal rivals Bayern with another three points.
Sunday 12 March
Freiburg 19/20 | Draw 26/10 | Hoffenheim 26/10 (16:30)
Hoffenheim continue to freefall having failed to win a fixture in the Bundesliga since October. Freiburg, on the other hand, have maintained a decent run of results but were lucky to get away unscathed in a 0-0 game against Borussia Monchengladbach. Freiburg boast value, but don’t inspire confidence, I’d back the Home Team Draw No Bet.
Werder Bremen 43/20 | Draw 26/20 | Bayer Leverkusen 12/10 (18:30)
Werder Bremen’s Niclas Fullkrug’s scored his first ever goal came against Augsburg over 10 years ago but was unable to help his team avoid a 2-1 defeat against the same opponents last time out. Now, they welcome Bayer Leverkusen who are a mere one point above Werder. The last four fixtures between the two have ended in a draw, and following the trend is a safe bet.
Wolfsburg 13/10 | Draw 9/4 | Union Berlin 23/10 (20:30)
Union Berlin seem to be crumbling under the pressure, with one win in their last five across all competitions. However, Union’s defence remains firm, securing three clean sheets in just as many fixtures, including their undefeated run in the topflight against Cologne last time out. Back Union’s return to winning ways.
TREBLE @ 44/10
Cologne Win 7/10
Bayern + Over 3.5 Goals 7/10
Eint. Frankfurt Win 9/10
