B. Leverkusen vs. Augsburg (Saturday, 2.30pm)
Bayer Leverkusen host Augsburg in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Both sides suffered defeat on the opening day last weekend, so they will be looking to quickly bounce back.
We say: Bayer Leverkusen 3-0 Augsburg
We can only envisage a comfortable home victory for Leverkusen, especially with a couple of attacking changes likely to provide them with a boost.
The visitors were desperately poor in the second half of their 4-0 defeat to Freiburg, whereas Leverkusen were unfortunate in defeat against Dortmund.

RB Leipzig vs. FC Koln (Saturday, 2.30pm)
RB Leipzig take on FC Koln in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
The DFB-Pokal winners are looking for their first league win of the season having been held by Stuttgart last week.
We say: RB Leipzig 3-1 FC Koln
We expect a comfortable victory on home soil for Leipzig, whose fans will be buoyed by the return of Werner following his £25m move from Chelsea.
Koln are a massively improved outfit under Baumgart but they were helped by Schalke's early dismissal last weekend, with Leipzig likely to have too much firepower for them.

Hoffenheim vs. VfL Bochum (Saturday, 2.30pm)
Hoffenheim and VfL Bochum will both be aiming to bounce back from opening defeats in the 2022-23 Bundesliga season when they lock horns in Saturday's showdown at the PreZero Arena.
Andre Breitenreiter's 10 men suffered a 3-1 loss to Borussia Monchengladbach last time out, while the visitors went down 2-1 at home to Mainz 05.
We say: Hoffenheim 2-1 VfL Bochum
Confidence is hardly sky-high in either camp right now, but Bochum should at least take some inspiration from their pair of victories over Hoffenheim in the 2021-22 season, and Reis's side will need such motivation to carry them over the line amid their fresh injury problems.
Breitenreiter will have also been forced to rethink tactically for Saturday's contest, but the hosts boast the more potent attacking options, and we can picture them emerging victorious by a narrow margin.

Hertha Berlin vs. Frankfurt (Saturday, 2.30pm)
Eintracht Frankfurt will aim to put their UEFA Super Cup defeat behind them when they travel to face Hertha Berlin in Saturday's Bundesliga battle.
Die Adler went down 2-0 to Los Blancos in midweek, while the hosts are seeking to recover from an opening-day 3-1 loss to Union Berlin in the Bundesliga.
We say: Hertha Berlin 1-2 Eintracht Frankfurt
Doing the domestic double over Frankfurt and scoring in all of their home matches should give Hertha Berlin quite the psychological boost ahead of Saturday's game against a Frankfurt side who have experienced a difficult period both on and off the field.
Glasner's men will have to battle their way through fatigue to get the job done this week, but a refreshed Kolo Muani who has already got off the mark in the Bundesliga can look to inspire Die Adler to their first league win of the new term.

Werder Bremen vs. Stuttgart (Saturday, 2.30pm)
Werder Bremen host Stuttgart in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Both sides drew in the 2022-23 season's opening weekend last time out, so they will be hoping to record their first victory of the season when they face each other.
We say: Werder Bremen 1-1 Stuttgart
With both managers keen to avoid a dent in confidence and morale which any defeat may bring, we can envisage these sides drawing once again.
Neither side played particularly fluently last weekend as they each dogged it out for a point, so they may struggle for ideas with more possession at their disposal.

Schalke vs. Borussia M'bach (Saturday, 5.30pm)
Schalke 04 take on Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga's Saturday evening fixture.
The hosts' return to Germany's top flight ended in defeat last weekend, while Gladbach began their new era under Daniel Farke with a win.
We say: Schalke 04 1-3 Borussia Monchengladbach
We expect Gladbach to have too much firepower for Schalke to be able to handle on Saturday.
It already has all the makings of a long, hard season for the hosts, whereas the visitors look upwardly mobile with a progressive coach at the helm.
