Table-toppers Bayer Leverkusen are gearing up to face newly-promoted Heidenheim at the BayArena in Bundesliga action this Sunday, at 2:30 pm.
Following a dominant performance in Europe earlier in the week, the hosts, under the remarkable leadership of Xabi Alonso, are looking to continue their exceptional season start.
Prediction: Bayer Leverkusen 3-1 Heidenheim
Leverkusen has already displayed their prowess by defeating RB Leipzig and Borussia Monchengladbach, and holding Bayern to a draw at the Allianz.
Another three points are on the line as they face the newly-promoted Heidenheim.
Despite Heidenheim’s recent goal-scoring form, including netting eight goals in their last three games, Leverkusen will approach the match with caution.
In the 4:30 pm fixture, Eintracht Frankfurt and Freiburg, both fresh from their European exploits, will clash at Deutsche Bank Park in the Bundesliga.
Prediction: Eintracht Frankfurt 1-1 Freiburg
Frankfurt has shown a knack for draws this season, recording four 1-1 draws across various competitions.
On the other hand, Freiburg has yet to share the points this season. Expect a closely contested match.
Historically, goals have been a feature of their encounters, with both teams finding the net in their last seven meetings in Frankfurt.
