Bayern Munich could go top in the Bundesliga when they welcome struggling Union Berlin in Saturday's gameweek 13 encounter at the Allianz Arena.
Thomas Tuchel's men seek a seventh straight win in the competition, while Union hope for another positive result since their managerial change.
We say: Bayern Munich 3-1 Union Berlin
Despite firing blanks on Wednesday, Bayern should return to winning ways in the league against Union, stopping the Iron Ones' two-game run in all competitions without losing.

RB Leipzig will be expecting to return to winning ways when they host Heidenheim in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
The visitors, meanwhile, have collected just one point from six matches on their travels since gaining promotion.
We say: RB Leipzig 3-1 Heidenheim
Having lost two of their last three league games, Leipzig will be determined to return to winning ways and give themselves a chance of returning to the Champions League qualification spots.
Heidenheim have struggled on the road since gaining their first ever promotion to the Bundesliga, although their excellent efforts at Dortmund and Bayern will give them hope of causing a major upset. We can envisage them scoring but falling to defeat.

Both teams will be aiming to return to winning ways when Borussia Monchengladbach host Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Gladbach were beaten 4-2 by Borussia Dortmund last weekend, while Hoffenheim drew 1-1 against Mainz 05.
We say: Borussia Monchengladbach 1-2 Hoffenheim
Although Gladbach have improved in recent weeks, they allowed 13 shots on their goal against Dortmund last week, with performances under Seoane's management still leaving plenty to be desired.
Hoffenheim's results have dipped of late, but their away record has been extremely impressive this season, and we can envisage Matarazzo's side claiming a sixth win in seven matches on the road.

VfL Bochum will be aiming to extend their unbeaten run to five matches when they host Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Wolfsburg, meanwhile, returned to winning ways against RB Leipzig last weekend.
We say: VfL Bochum 1-1 Wolfsburg
Bochum have drawn more than half of their matches this season, but their lack of wins means they have been unable to make significant progress in terms of moving up the table, despite becoming harder to beat.
Given that Wolfsburg have lost their last five away matches, we can envisage both managers settling for a point on Saturday, with attacking quality likely to be at a premium at Vonovia-Ruhrstadion.

Stuttgart vs. Werder Bremen (Saturday, 5.30pm)

Stuttgart will be expecting to earn their 10th league win in 13 matches when they host Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
The visitors, meanwhile, have won just one of their last seven games to slide closer to the relegation zone.
We say: Stuttgart 2-1 Werder Bremen
Werder Bremen were humbled by Leverkusen's dominance during their defeat last weekend, but things do not get much easier for them here with a trip to in-form Stuttgart. The hosts have already won two more matches than in each of the last two seasons.
We can envisage them earning a 10th victory in 13 matches by dispatching Werder Bremen on Saturday, but it may be closer than expected. Both sides are better offensively than defensively, so it should be an entertaining clash at MHPArena.
