AC Milan Inter Derby Maddonina Predicts Klasiker
The Milan derby closes out the Serie A weekend

Bundesliga

Der Klassiker Bayern Dortmund
Der Klassiker is undoubtedly the fixture of this weekend’s Bundesliga

Saturday, 19th November

♦ Bayer Leverkusen 2-2 RB Leipzig (1:00 AM)

This season’s surprise package, 2nd placed RB Leipzig, face a tough trip to the Bayer Arena, and have the chance to go top of the Bundesliga with a win over their 8th placed opponents. Expect a thrill-a-minute fixture, with Javier Hernandez and Timo Werner likely to be on the scoresheet for either side.

SV Darmstadt 1-0 Ingolstadt (8:00 PM)

Wolfsburg 0-1 Schalke 04 (8:00 PM)

FC Augsburg 2-2 Hertha BSC (8:00 PM)

Mainz 2-1 SC Freiburg (8:00 PM)

Borussia Monchengladbach A German Team 1-3 FC Koln (8:00 PM)

♦ Borussia Dortmund 3-3 Bayern Munich (11:00 PM)

Pep Guardiola’s last two Der Klassiker’s were drab goalless draws, but with Carlo Ancelotti replacing him at the helm of Bayern Munich, expect the biggest game in the Bundesliga to be an attacking feast with Thomas Tuchel no exactly being a shrinking violet himself. Dortmund have a need to win to claw their way back up from 5th place, which should see them come out of the gate firing on all cylinders, with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang likely to continue his excellent scoring form.

Bayern have one of the best defences in Europe, but also face the 5th highest goal-scoring side in Europe. Ancelotti might have to rely on his devastating frontline of Robert Lewandowski to get something from this game, especially with Thomas Muller still not as fluent in front of goal this season.

Sunday, 20th November

TSG Hoffenheim 3-0 Hamburg SV (8:00 PM)

Werder Bremen 1-2 Eintracht Frankfurt (10:00 PM)
