In the German Bundesliga
Hoffenheim are likely to stay at top of the German Bundesliga standings with a win at Frankfurt. Both teams are unbeaten and Frankfurt could finish top of the league with a win in this fixture.
None of last season’s top four finishers managed a win in the last round of games.
Dortmund
RB Leipzig
Monchengladbach
Bayern Munich
Dortmund will host Freiburg with the hope of making up for the 2-0 defeat against Augsburg.
Monchengladbach goes away against FC Koln. It will be a chance for them to make up for the points dropped at home against Union Berlin.
RB Leizig are gifted with Schalke to make up for the points dropped in Leverkusen after a 1-1 draw.
Bayern Munich gets a visit from Hertha Berlin. Bayern Munich will be expected to bounce back from their shocking defeat against Hoffenhiem in the last round. Could be a disaster for Hertha Berlin.
In the Spanish La Liga
Atletico Madrid must make up for the points dropped mid week when they take on Villarreal. It won’t be an easy task for both teams.
Getafe’s place at the top of the league table will be secured with a victory against Real Sociedad. Real Sociead is coming from a defeat to Valencia.
Valencia with a win against Real Betis will keep them in the top end of the standings. There is just a point gap between the two teams after 4 games played.
Levante almost escaped Sevilla with a point from their last league match. A late goal denied Levante. Can Levante succeed against Real Madrid?
It’s 2 wins out of 2 for both Barcelona and Sevilla. Points must be dropped. Can both teams stay unbeaten?
In the English Premier League
Leicester City, Liverpool, and Everton are gunning for 4 wins in 4 matches. Everton play as host to Brighton.
We are expecting an attacking game when Leeds host Manchester City.
Leicester City tales on West Ham. Both teams are coming from shocking wins in their last league fixture. West Ham were 4-0 winners against Wolves, while Leicester defeated Manchester City 5-2.
Arsenal will like to make up for their first league defeat by getting to winning ways against Sheffield United. It’s a good thing for Arsenal that Sheffield United have lost every game since the start of the season.
Manchester United are a game behind and a point behind Tottenham. A win for Manchester United will have them leap above Tottenham in points; while having a match in hand. It’s up to Tottenham to avoid that outcome. Jose Mourinho faces his old club.
Aston Villa and Liverpool have both had a perfect season so far. Liverpool has 3 wins from 3 matches played. Aston Villa has 2 wins from their 2 league matches played. Coincidentally, both teams were also eliminated from the league cup on Thursday.
In the French Ligue 1
Win number 4 in a row for Paris St. Germain when they take on Angers? Both teams are on 9 points after 3 wins and 2 defeats in the opening 5 matches of the season.
Rennes keep top of the table spot in Ligue 1 if they get a home victory against newly-promoted and relegation-zoned Reims.
Choc des Olympiques – Both teams are coming into the game on the back of a 1-1 draw. Marseille haven’t had a victory in their last three league games (2D and 1L), while Lyon have gone 4 league matches without a win (3D and 1L). A win will be the objective for both clubs to make up for the points dropped.
In the Italian Serie A
Napoli, Atalanta, Inter Milan, AC Milan, and Hellas Verona are leaders and unbeaten after 2 rounds.
Napoli has a stiff test away against Juventus.
Inter Milan will be tested by a wounded Lazio team that is coming from a 4-1 hammering.
Atalanta has Cagliari. An opportunity for Atalanta to take advantage of the results from the other games. (We are assuming Cagliari will be an easier opponent).
Hellas Verona are away against Parma.
