Saturday's Bundesliga predictions including RB Leipzig vs. Bayer Leverkusen

Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Saturday's Bundesliga fixtures, including RB Leipzig vs. Bayer Leverkusen.

Bayern Munich take on Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga on Saturday, with the Bavarians looking to extend their seven point lead at the top of the table.

Hoffenheim have won their last two games 3-0, and will take confidence from beating Bayern 4-1 in the reverse fixture in September.

We say: Bayern Munich 3-1 Hoffenheim


Hoffenheim have improved in recent matches, but are probably still missing too many key players to push Bayern all of the way.

We expect the visitors to score in defeat, though, with Kramaric likely to worry Flick after scoring a brace against his side in September.

Our tipster partners are predicting that both teams will score (BTTS - yes).

Werder Bremen vs. Schalke (Saturday, 2.30pm)

With faint hopes of survival fading by the week, basement side Schalke 04 travel to Bremen's Weserstadion on Saturday searching for even a point to boost morale.

Hosts Werder Bremen, meanwhile, pulled further away from the Bundesliga's bottom three last week, thanks to a third win in six league matches.

We say: Werder Bremen 2-1 Schalke 04


There can be no significant reason for backing struggling Schalke to come good this week, even against an inconsistent Bremen outfit.

Instead, the home team can capitalise on the continuing demise of Die Konigsblauen by picking up rare back-to-back Bundesliga wins.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Dortmund vs. Augsburg (Saturday, 2.30pm)

Borussia Dortmund entertain Augsburg in the Bundesliga on Saturday, with the hosts looking to get back to winning ways after last weekend's 4-2 defeat at the hands of Borussia Monchengladbach.

Edin Terzic's side are unlikely to have things entirely their own way, though, with the reverse fixture ending 2-0 to Augsburg in September.

We say: Borussia Dortmund 2-0 Augsburg


We expect Dortmund to get back to winning ways against an effective but ultimately limited Augsburg outfit.

Terzic is likely to target a clean sheet in this match, with only four sides scoring fewer goals than Augsburg so far this season, in order to alleviate pressure from his talented array of attackers.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.

Union Berlin take on Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga on Saturday, with the hosts able to leapfrog their opponents into fifth place in the table with a victory.

Gladbach will travel to Berlin full of confidence, though, after last weekend's thrilling 4-2 victory over Borussia Dortmund.

We say: Union Berlin 1-2 Borussia Monchengladbach


Gladbach are one of the Bundesliga's form sides at present, so we can envisage them earning a narrow victory on Saturday.

Union Berlin's performances and results have both understandably dropped off a little in recent weeks, with the visitors possessing the firepower to punish them.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Frankfurt vs. Hertha Berlin (Saturday, 2.30pm)

Two sides enduring contrasting spells of form in the Bundesliga will lock horns at the Deutsche Bank Park on Saturday afternoon as Eintracht Frankfurt play host to Hertha Berlin.

Adi Hutter's men returned to winning ways with a 5-1 rout of Arminia Bielefeld last time out, whereas Hertha were no match for fellow strugglers Werder Bremen in gameweek 18.

We say: Eintracht Frankfurt 3-1 Hertha Berlin


The Hertha faithful will be praying for an immediate new manager bounce this weekend, and Dardai is a man who knows what it takes to succeed in the dugout. However, the 44-year-old is set for a baptism of fire against a Frankfurt outfit who are scoring for fun at the moment, so we cannot see the visitors getting anything out of this one.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

RB Leipzig vs. B. Leverkusen (Saturday, 5.30pm)

RB Leipzig take on Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga on Saturday, with the visitors able to overtake their forthcoming opponents into second place in the table with a victory.

Both sides are looking to bounce back from disappointing defeats last weekend.

We say: RB Leipzig 2-1 Bayer Leverkusen


Both sides have significant injury issues, but Leipzig look to be missing fewer key players and should have enough to secure a narrow victory.

While the title looks a long shot now, Nagelsmann will be expected to comfortably secure a top four position this season, and a win here would go a long way towards achieving that aim.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.
