Bundesliga Matchday 25 predictions

Friday night

Borussia Dortmund v. 1. FC Koln

Prediction: 2-1

If Dortmund are to slip up, this would be a spot for it to happen. But we believe they will manage to get the three points over Frank Schaefer's men.

Saturday

Eintracht Frankfurt v. 1. FC Kaiserslautern

Prediction: 1-1

A win for Kaiserslautern would leave these sides level on points and drag Eintracht into the relegation battle. Surely Frankfurt will finally score, right?

VfB Stuttgart v. FC Schalke 04

Prediction: 3-1

Have to believe Schalke won't have much incentive after the midweek win at Bayern while Stuttgart finally are showing signs of life.

Mönchengladbach v. 1899 Hoffenheim

Prediction: 1-2

Favre won his first home match but last week showed that was a fluke.

Hannover 96 FC v. Bayern München

Prediction: 1-2

The champions are on thin ice after two straight defeats, but Hannover are without Didier Ya Konan so they should find it tough to find goals.

1. FC Nürnberg v. FC St. Pauli

Prediction: 2-0

Nürnberg are a club that may earn a European spot in the final reckoning.

Bayer Leverkusen v. VfL Wolfsburg

Prediction: 3-1

Leverkusen have been piling up plenty of goals, and that trend should continue against the Wolves' toothless D.

Sunday

SC Freiburg v. Werder Bremen

Prediction: 2-2

Freiburg have started to stutter, and Bremen simply need the three points more. This is a hard fixture to determine.

Hamburger SV v. FSV Mainz 05

Prediction: 1-1

Hamburg have a chance to draw level with Mainz for fifth place in what should be an entertaining affair.
