Bayer Leverkusen take on Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga on Saturday with the hosts looking to bounce back from two successive defeats.
Bremen, meanwhile, have lost five of their last six games themselves to slip to 14th position in the table.
We say: Bayer Leverkusen 2-1 Werder Bremen
We expect Leverkusen to return to winning ways on Saturday against a Bremen side currently devoid of confidence, although it is unlikely to be as comfortable as many may expect.
Should the likes of Patrik Schick and Moussa Diaby fire on all cylinders, though, it is difficult to see Bremen being able to gain a positive result.

Freiburg take on FC Koln in the Bundesliga on Saturday, with the hosts looking to continue their upwards trajectory in the table by gaining a fifth successive league win.
Koln, meanwhile, are languishing just a point outside of the relegation places.
We say: Freiburg 2-1 FC Koln
With Freiburg looking in sensational form at present, we can see them clinically taking the opportunities which will surely come their way against Koln.
Gisdol's side are rarely soundly beaten, though, so have enough about them to make it a competitive game and it would be little surprise to see a share of the spoils.
Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Union Berlin vs. Wolfsburg (Saturday, 2.30pm)

Two of the Bundesliga's over-achievers this season go head-to-head on Saturday when Union Berlin entertain Wolfsburg.
The two sides come into the meeting level on 24 points after 14 matches, with Union Berlin impressively in fifth position in the table, one place ahead of Wolfsburg due to a superior goal difference.
We say: Union Berlin 1-1 Wolfsburg
With both sides punching above their weight this season, certainly in the case of Union Berlin, we can envisage an entertaining draw in a closely-fought match.
Wolfsburg tend to start games very quickly so it would be no surprise to see them take an early lead before Fischer's side work their way into the game, with Awoniyi and Becker capable of causing any defence issues on current form.
Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Schalke 04 take on Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga on Saturday, with both sides in desperate need of gaining a positive result.
It is almost an entire year since Schalke last won in the league, while Hoffenheim have sunk to 13th in the table after three defeats in their last four games.
We say: Schalke 04 1-2 Hoffenheim
With both sides missing several first-team players through injury, neither team is likely to be at their best, but Hoffenheim should still be able to field an XI more than capable of beating Schalke.
Gross's side looked woefully inept in the defeat at Hertha at the weekend, with Hoffenheim unlikely to play as badly as they did in the first half against Freiburg again all season.
Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Mainz 05 vs. Frankfurt (Saturday, 2.30pm)

Under new management, Mainz 05 welcome local rivals Eintracht Frankfurt to the Opel Arena on Saturday, hoping to bounce back from a Bundesliga battering at the hands of Bayern Munich.
Mid-table Frankfurt, meanwhile, come into the game full of confidence due to a fine win over Bayer Leverkusen last time out.
We say: Mainz 05 1-2 Eintracht Frankfurt
Given the opposition for his debut in the dugout, a happy start to Svensson's Mainz return appears unlikely.
This local derby will most probably be decided by Frankfurt's more able attack getting the better of the home side's disorganised defence - so any miracles at Mainz may have to wait.
Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a draw or an away win.

RB Leipzig vs. Dortmund (Saturday, 5.30pm)

RB Leipzig take on Borussia Dortmund on Saturday in a mouth-watering Bundesliga clash.
The hosts may have the chance to move top of the table if Borussia Monchengladbach beat league leaders Bayern Munich on Friday night, while Dortmund can reduce the gap to their forthcoming opponents to three points with a victory.
We say: RB Leipzig 1-1 Borussia Dortmund
Leipzig have failed to win their last five meetings with Dortmund, and with the visitors looking improved since the departure of Favre, we can see them gaining another positive result against Nagelsmann's side.
Both sides have improved defensively this season so it could be a relatively cagey affair, with the sharpness of Haaland after his recent hamstring injury likely to have a huge bearing on the result.
Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.
