Bundesliga Matchday 2 review

Saturday

SC Freiburg v. FSV Mainz 05

Prediction: 2-1
Actual result: 1-2

Mainz are in the top spot and showing fight in the post-Holtby and Schurrle era.

Hamburger SV v. Hertha BSC

Prediction: 2-0
Actual result: 2-2

Hamburg were outplayed badly by the unlucky capital city side, which hit the goalframe at least four times and probably deserved all three points.

FC Schalke 04 v. 1. FC Koln

Prediction: 3-1
Actual result: 5-1

It may already be crisis time for Solbakken at the Rheinenergie.

VfL Wolfsburg v. Bayern München

Prediction: 1-1
Actual result: 0-1

A harsh result for the home side as Gustavo rescued Bayern from a winless start.

1. FC Nürnberg v. Hannover 96

Prediction: 2-1
Actual result: 1-2

Abdellaoue strikes again as Hannover joins Mainz as the only clubs on six points.

1899 Hoffenheim v. Borussia Dortmund

Prediction: 2-1
Actual result: 1-0

TBG predicted a loss for the champions, and Salihovic's wonder strike made it a reality.

Mönchengladbach v. VfB Stuttgart

Prediction: 1-2
Actual result: 1-1

Gladbach hold on after Brouwers' dismissal and Favre's men are off to a strong start.

Sunday

1. FC Kaiserslautern v. FC Augsburg

Prediction: 1-1
Actual result: 1-1

If this was billed as a relegation six-pointer, this outcome means that both teams have plenty to worry about.

Bayer Leverkusen v. Werder Bremen

Prediction: 2-1
Actual result: 1-0

Leverkusen were well worth the three points as Kadlec was on target for the late winner.
