Visitors Borussia Monchengladbach will have to win on Saturday against Werder Bremen at Weserstadion if they are to keep pace with the teams above them in the Bundesliga's European spots.
The Green-Whites are in 12th place with 33 points and defeated Bayer Leverkusen 2-0 on March 8, whereas the away side lost 3-1 against Mainz 05 on March 7 and are in ninth place with 37 points.
We say: Werder Bremen 1-2 Borussia Monchengladbach
Though Werder Bremen managed to earn a good result against Leverkusen, it is difficult to overlook their poor form.
If Borussia Monchengladbach create the same number of chances as they did last time out, they should be expected to win if they are more clinical in the final third.

Augsburg vs. Wolfsburg (Saturday, 2.30pm)

Wolfsburg's hopes of Champions League football could be boosted should they beat hosts Augsburg at WWK Arena on Saturday in the Bundesliga.
The hosts are 11th with 35 points and could qualify for Europe given they are only four points from sixth-placed RB Leipzig, but the Wolves are in seventh place with 38 points following their 1-1 draw with St Pauli on March 8 and are four points from fourth-placed Eintracht Frankfurt.
We say: Augsburg 1-1 Wolfsburg
Augsburg will be a challenging opponent for Wolfsburg considering they have not often been beaten at home.
Wolfsburg have been subpar defensively in recent weeks, and their vulnerability at the back could cost them victory on Saturday.

Two in-form teams clash in a battle that could shake up the top-four race as Mainz 05 host Freiburg in Bundesliga round 26 on Saturday.
The 05ers sit third in the standings after going five games without defeat, winning each of the last four, while the visitors are just three points adrift in fifth, currently on a six-match unbeaten run.
We say: Mainz 05 1-1 Freiburg
With both teams in strong form and defensively solid, a tight, low-scoring contest seems likely, and with five of their last seven meetings ending in stalemates, another draw appears the most probable outcome.

Bayern Munich will hope to take another significant step towards reclaiming their Bundesliga crown with victory against hosts Union Berlin on Saturday at Stadion An der Alten Forsterei.
Union are fifth last in 14th place with just 26 points and are at risk of being dragged into the relegation battle, while Bayern's tally of 61 points is eight more than second-placed Bayer Leverkusen despite losing 3-2 against VfL Bochum on March 8.
We say: Union Berlin 0-4 Bayern Munich
Bayern will come into the game as clear favourites considering their impressive record on the road this season.
It is difficult to see how Union can stop the visitors from scoring, and the Bavarians will be confident of finding the back of the net multiple times.

In a clash that will impact the race for Champions League football, RB Leipzig will host Borussia Dortmund at Red Bull Arena on Saturday in the Bundesliga.
Die Roten Bullen drew 0-0 with Freiburg on March 8 and are in sixth place with 39 points, while Dortmund have 35 points following their 1-0 defeat against Augsburg in the league last Saturday and are in 10th place.
We say: RB Leipzig 2-2 Borussia Dortmund
Dortmund have been excellent on the road, and they should be confident of finding the back of the net on Saturday.
However, Leipzig's record at home is also strong, and it would not be surprising if the two sides played out an entertaining stalemate.
