Bundesliga, Schwarzwald Stadion

Live on BT Sport 1 HD – Kick Off: 19:30 BST

Freiburg will host top four hopefuls Borussia Monchengladbach in Bundesliga action this Friday night.

The hosts have had a decent season to date but have been slow to start since the Bundesliga’s restart a couple weeks back from the coronavirus pandemic. Meanwhile, Monchengladbach have looked a real force recently with a huge 4-1 victory against Union Berlin last time out.

Freiburg are underdogs for this match despite their home advantage and are priced at 16/5 to win this match by SkyBet. The hosts are winless in their last four matches and have just two wins from their last twelve matches. They have also failed to score in two of their last three matches since the league’s restart. Up against a free-scoring Gladbach, Freiburg will struggle off recent form.

Going forward, Nils Petersen will be their biggest threat with nine goals so far this season. He is priced at 9/4 to score anytime.

Borussia Monchengladbach will hope to keep their top four dreams alive with a victory and are priced at 3/4 to claim an away victory by SkyBet. The visitors impressed in their last outing; a 4-1 victory over Union Berlin where their strike force shined once again. Gladbach are fighting well for Champions League football next season and will not want to slip up against the out-of-form Freiburg.

In attack, both Marcus Thuram and Alassane Plea have been in top form and work well together up front. Both are priced at 6/4 to score anytime and SkyBet are offering 11/2 for both of them to score during the match.

Last time they met, chaos ensued as they played out a six-goal thriller in favour of Gladbach and 50 booking points were brandished during the match. SkyBet are offering 13/8 for 50+ booking points.

The match will be televised on BT Sport 1 HD and kicks off at 19:30.

Prediction: Freiburg 0-2 Borussia Monchengladbach

– The visitors have looked much stronger in attack and home advantage has not made much difference in the behind closed doors format.

Werder Bremen are priced at 17/10 to win the match by SkyBet and claim a vital three points in their bid for survival.

Eintracht Frankfurt are priced at 7/5 to claim an away victory. Frankfurt finally ended their poor winless run on the weekend with a 2-1 victory over Wolfsburg.

Going forward, Portuguese forward Andre Silva has seven goals this season and scored in their last match. He is priced at 15/8 to score anytime.

Last time these two met in the Bundesliga, they played out an entertaining 2-2 draw as a 91st minute penalty from Milot Rashica saved Bremen from another away loss. 30 booking points were brandished during the match and SkyBet are offering 11/10 for 50+ booking points.

FC Koln vs RB Leipzig
Monday 1st June 2020
Bundesliga – RheinEnergie STADION

Live on BT Sport 1HD – Kick-off 19:30 BST

The Bundesliga action continues on Monday evening as RB Leipzig travel to face FC Koln.

Both sides have started slowly since the Bundesliga’s resumption, but will be looking to pick up a positive result on Monday evening. In their last fixture Koln were defeated 3-1 away to Hoffenheim, meanwhile RB Leipzig were held 2-2 at home by Hertha Berlin; a result which saw them lose even more ground in the race for the title.

Koln are yet to win any of their three matches following the Bundesliga’s stoppage. Markus Gisdol’s side are without a win in their last four Bundesliga encounters and their poor run of form has seen them slip into the bottom half of the division.

RB Leipzig on the other hand have picked up where they left off in the Bundesliga and are unbeaten in their three matches since the re-start of football in Germany. Leipzig currently occupy 3rd place in the division, and trail 2nd placed Borussia Dortmund by two points. Julian Nagelsmann’s side are unbeaten in all competitions since January, a run which consists of eleven matches. SkyBet are offering odds of 4/7 for a Leipzig victory on Monday evening.

Despite having the lowest number of defeats in the Bundesliga this season, Leipzig’s tendency to draw matches has been their achilles heel. Ten of Leipzig’s twenty-five encounters this season have ended in a stalemate.

Leipzig were 4-1 winners in the reverse fixture back in November and boast the better recent record in this fixture. They’ve won three of the last five matches in this fixture. Koln’s most recent win came back in February 2018, where they were 2-1 winners.

BTTS has landed in each of the last five encounters between these two sides. BTTS in this fixture is priced at 8/15, whereas BTTS and Leipzig to win is at odds of 7/4.

SC Paderborn vs Borussia Dortmund
Sunday 31st May
 2020
Bundesliga, Benteler Arena 

Live on BT Sport 1 HD – Kick Off: 17:00 BST

Bottom of the Bundesliga SC Paderborn take on second-placed Borussia Dortmund in league action this Sunday afternoon.

The hosts managed to muster one point from their last outing against Augsburg, but their overall picture looks bleak – nine points from safety. And now, a badly timed visit from one of the league’s most prolific teams in on the cards as Borussia Dortmund will hope to get on foot closer to securing a top four finish. Dortmund’s title hopes took a huge blow after their 1-0 loss to league leaders Bayern Munich.

SC Paderborn are heavy outsiders for the encounter and are priced at 8/1 to win the match by SkyBet. Paderborn’s season makes for grim reading as they are all but staring relegation in the face. They have claimed just one win from their last nine home matches and have scored just one goal from their three matches back.

In attack, they will look to Streli Mamba to help them cause and upset and he is priced at 10/3 to score anytime.

Borussia Dortmund are not expecting too many issues in this match-up and are priced at 3/10 to claim the victory. Dortmund’s hopes of catching Bayern are all but gone now after they could not overcome the Bundesliga champions. In other performances, they have looked fast, strong and creative and have the second-best goal tally in the league. They face the third worst defence.

In attack, they are missing star striker Erling Braut Haaland through a knee injury he picked up against Bayern. Jadon Sancho is likely to return to the starting side and is priced at 14/5 to open the scoring.

Last time out, the two teams played out a contender for match of the season as Dortmund came back from 3-0 down with two late goals to salvage a 3-3 draw. 40 booking points were brandished during the match. SkyBet are offering 13/8 for 50+ booking points.

SC Paderborn vs Borussia Dortmund will be televised live onBT Sport 1 HD with kick-off at 17:00 BST.

Saturday 30th May 2020
Bundesliga – Allianz Arena

Live on BT Sport 1 HD – Kick-off: 17:30 BST

Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich return to the Allianz Arena on Saturday evening as they host Fortuna Dusseldorf.

Following Tuesday night’s Der Klassiker victory over closest rivals Borussia Dortmund, Bayern now have a healthy seven-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga, and look set to make it eight consecutive league titles. A win for Hans Dieter-Flick’s side on Saturday would open up a ten-point gap over Dortmund, who don’t play until Sunday afternoon.

The visitors Fortuna Dusseldorf sit precariously above the relegation zone and occupy the play-off place in 16th. Uwe Rossler’s side are currently on a six-match unbeaten run which stretches back to the middle of February. Since the league’s resumption, Dusseldorf have drawn two and won one.

Bayern Munich have won their last seven consecutive Bundesliga encounters and are unbeaten in their last fourteen.

Dusseldorf have the second highest number of draws this season with nine and six of these draws have come in their last nine encounters. For those optimists, a draw is priced at 8/1 on SkyBet.

This fixture has been one of the more exciting affairs in the Bundesliga in recent years.

Schalke vs Werder Bremen
Saturday 30th May
 2020
Bundesliga, VELTINS-Arena 

Live on BT Sport 1 HD – Kick Off: 14:30 BST

Slow re-starters Schalke will play host to relegation-threatened Werder Bremen on Saturday afternoon in Bundesliga action.

The hosts have lost all three matches since the Bundesliga returned due to the coronavirus pandemic. Their slow start means they are now without a win from their previous 10 Bundesliga matches. Meanwhile, Werder Bremen have shown some signs of hope as they look to claw their way out of the relegation zone. They managed a draw and a win from their last two matches.

Schalke are priced at 7/5 to win the match by SkyBet and turn their horrid form around since the restart. The club’s hopes of Europa League football next season are slipping away after their poor start since the return. They are currently five points adrift from Wolfsburg and will hope they can finally find their groove this Saturday against a struggling team. Schalke often see plenty of possession, it’s their creativity in the final third that has been lacking.

In attack, youngster Rabbi Matondo has looked busy with his work-rate and lightning pace. He is priced at 7/2 to score anytime.

Werder Bremen are priced at 19/10 to win the match by SkyBet and claim a huge three points in their bid for survival. The struggling side will take some confidence from their recent performances, keeping back-to-back clean sheets for the first time since October 2018. They also have a very impressive away record this season with 16 points from 14 matches, and away sides seem to be playing much better in the behind closed doors format.

In attack, Bremen’s top goalscorer Milo Rashica is priced at 11/5 to score anytime.

Last time these two met, Schalke battled out a 2-1 victory away from home in a tight and tense match. 50 booking points were brandished and SkyBet are offering 5/4 for 50+ booking points to be shown again.

The match will be televised on BT Sport 1 HD and kicks off at 14:30 BST.

SC Freiburg vs Bayer Leverkusen
Friday 29th May 2020
Bundesliga – Schwarzwald-Stadion

Live on BT Sport 1HD – Kick-off: 19:30 BST

The latest instalment of Bundesliga action kicks off on Friday night when SC Freiburg host Bayer Leverkusen.

Both sides will be looking to return to winning ways after their midweek results. Freiburg were held 3-3 away to Eintracht Frankfurt meanwhile Bayer Leverkusen were thumped 4-1 at home against Wolfsburg.

A win for Freiburg on Friday evening would see them momentarily close the gap on 6th placed Wolfsburg to only one point in their battle to secure European football for next season. Christian Streich’s side are yet to win since the resumption of the Bundesliga, so a win would be just as useful for momentum as well as ranking. Freiburg have won one of their last eight in the Bundesliga

Bayer Leverkusen on the other hand missed the chance to go third in midweek. RB Leipzig’s stalemate with Hertha Berlin means there’s now only two points separating the two sides, and a win for Leverkusen on Friday night would see them leapfrog Leipzig and claim 3rd spot.

Five of Freiburg’s eight defeats this season have come at home, which is something that doesn’t bode well ahead of Leverkusen’s visit. Leverkusen have one of the best away records in the division and have lost only three of their fourteen games on the road this season. Leverkusen are priced at 3/4 on SkyBet to grab all three points on Friday evening.

Three of the last four meetings between these two sides have ended in a draw. The last win in this fixture came last season, with Bayer Leverkusen winning 2-0. A draw is priced at 14/5 on SkyBet.

Kai Havertz has scored five goals in his last four Bundesliga appearances, including braces against Werder Bremen and Borussia Monchengladbach in his first two games since the leagues return. The German is priced at 23/20 on SkyBet to score anytime.

Freiburg’s Roland Sallai has been yellow carded in two of his last four appearances and is priced at 13/5 to be booked on Friday night.

The match will be televised live on BT Sport 1HD and kicks off at 19:30 BST.

RB Leipzig vs Hertha Berlin
Wednesday 27th May
 2020
Bundesliga, Red Bull Arena

Live on BT Sport 1 HD – Kick Off: 17:30 GMT

Bundesliga high-flyers RB Leipzig host Hertha Berlin in the league this Wednesday night in the early kick-off.

Julian Naglesmann’s men dispatched of Mainz with authority over the weekend with a resounding 5-0 victory away from home to make up for their opening weekend blunder after the Bundesliga’s restart. Meanwhile, Hertha Berlin have also made a fast start in their return with a 3-0 win and more importantly, a 4-0 win over rivals Union Berlin.

RB Leipzig are favourites for this German clash and are priced at 1/3 to win the match by SkyBet. The hosts looked in fine form over the weekend when they dispatched of Mainz in a 5-0 win. Their work-rate was second to none, their attacking was potent and creative, and Hertha will be worried after their performance.

In attack, look no further than Liverpool target Timo Werner to score for Leipzig. The striker has 24 goals this season and scored a hat-rick on Sunday. He is priced at 12/5 to score first.

Hertha Berlin will have a tough test in keeping their 100% record since the league’s restart and are priced at 13/2 to pull off a shock victory. Hertha have been impressive so far but face a much harder opponent in RB Leipzig. Luckily, their defensive frailties have not been tested as of yet but whilst they do prosper in attack, it is likely that most of the football will be played down the other end of the pitch.

Striker Vedad Ibesevic has scored in both matches so far since the return and is priced at 14/5 to score anytime.

Last time these two met, the match was not short of drama as Leipzig were victorious in a 4-2 showdown. 30 booking points were brandished but both clubs have showcased their grit in recent weeks, which could see more booking points awarded. SkyBet are offering 5/4 for 50+ booking points.

The match will be televised on BT Sport 1 HD and kicks off at 17:30.

Prediction: RB Leipzig 2-0 Hertha Berlin

– The hosts have way too much quality in attacking areas and will punish their opponents in midfield and up front.

Werder Bremen vs Borussia Monchengladbach
Tuesday 26th May 2020
Bundesliga – Weser Stadium

Live on BT Sport 1 – Kick-off: 19:30 BST

Werder Bremen host Borussia Monchengladbach in the German Bundesliga on Tuesday evening.

The top of the table clash between Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund may take centre-stage on Tuesday evening, but as far as these two sides are concerned there’s still plenty to play for this season, at different ends of the table.

Werder Bremen picked up a much-needed win against Freiburg on Saturday. Leonardo Bittencourt’s first-half winner secured Bremen’s first win since January and only their fifth in total this season.

Borussia Monchengladbach meanwhile suffered a dent to their hopes of securing Champions League football with a 3-1 home defeat to Bayer Leverkusen. Saturday’s defeat was Monchengladbach’s second in their last nine games, and their third home defeat of the season.

Marco Rose’s side were 3-1 winners in the reverse fixture back in November. Monchengladbach boast a tremendous record in this fixture and are unbeaten in over five years against Werder Bremen, winning six of the last eight. BTTS is certainly a market worth exploring for this one. Eight of the last ten meetings, including the last five encounters has seen both teams score. SkyBet are offering odds for BTTS at 1/2, and BTTS with a Monchengladbach win at 21/10.

Marcus Thuram has scored in his last two games for Monchengladbach, and the Frenchman is priced at 13/8 to score anytime on Tuesday night.

Marco Freidl may be worth considering in the booking market for Tuesday night’s game. The Austrian has been booked in his last two consecutive Bundesliga appearances. Meanwhile Monchengladbach have racked up nine yellow cards in their last four Bundesliga matches, so team booking points may also be a market worth exploring.

Monchengladbach have won three of their last four games on the road and seem good value at 5/6 to pick up all three points on Tuesday evening.

Werder Bremen vs Borussia Monchengladbach will be televised live in the UK on BT Sport 1 with kick-off 19:30 BST.

Prediction: Werder Bremen 1-2 Borussia Monchengladbach

Bayern Munich are priced at 4/5 to win the match and put one hand on the Bundesliga trophy against their fiercest rival. Bayern face their toughest remaining test in the league this season with Dortmund their main threat in the title race. They have been their usual well-oiled machine with easy wins over Union Berlin and Frankfurt.

Robert Lewandowski is like a fine wine, getting better with age with his 27 league goals this season. He is priced at 13/5 to score first.
