Following the first international break of the season, the present Bundesliga campaign resumes with some cracking fixtures slated for Matchday 4. Naturally, we will offer our insight into all the matches for the best weekly Bundesliga betting tips.
At the moment, it is Bayer Leverkusen that leads the charts with a 100% win record and the largest goal-difference. Reigning champions Bayern München also has 3 wins out of 3 but with a slightly less impressive goal-tally. Meanwhile, Stuttgart currently holds 3rd place in the table, indicating it could be the surprise package of 2023/24 even though it is still early days. Leipzig, Union Berlin, Hoffenehim, Wolfsburg and Freiburg are the other teams to have 2 victories from their opening 3 matches of the season. Eintracht Frankfurt and Borussia Dortmund are both undefeated so far but neither have picked up a win since the opening week.
Meanwhile, Darmstadt is rock bottom of the standings and the only team yet to open its tally. Mainz and Borussia M’gladbach are the other sides that are languishing in the bottom-3 with only 1 point from the opening 3 games. Heidenheim and Köln also have the same returns even though both clubs are presently hanging above the drop zone.

FC Bayern München v Bayer 04 Leverkusen
Date: September 15th 2023
Venue: Allianz Arena, Munich
Time: 19:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Bayern: 1.60
Draw: 4.75
Leverkusen: 4.75
Bayern München went a goal behind before it produced a 2nd half comeback to grab a late winner in the 1-2 victory at Borussia M’gladbach on Matchday 3. Having maintained its perfect start, Bayern now has to get ready for its biggest challenge so far this season.
Bayer Leverkusen also gave an excellent 2nd half display on Matchday 3 to pick up a 5-1 home win over Darmstadt and keep up its perfect record. It now faces its strongest test, the result of which should indicate whether Leverkusen can mount a serious title bid.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Total Goals: Over 3.5 at 1.78
Bayern were unsurprisingly the top scorers of the Bundesliga in 2022/23 and it has even greater firepower at its disposal this season. While it averaged over 3 goals per game at Allianz Arena, it could still only earn the 4th best defensive record on home turf.
With 11 goals in 3 games, Leverkusen is currently the top scorers of the current campaign having scored at least 3 goals in each game thus far. But on the flipside, Leverkusen has conceded 2 or more goals in 4 of the previous 6 trips to Allianz Arena.
Highest Scoring Half: Over 3.5 at 1.78
Considering how both these teams have begun the new season, this is a very evenly matched contest. So there is not much here to bet with any real confidence although this fixture should produce a fair share of goals, especially in the latter period of the match.
Of the 9 goals that Bayern München has scored in the Bundesliga up to this point, 6 of those have been registered during the final 45 minutes of its matches. For Bayer Leverkusen, only 4 of its 11 goals have been scored within regulation time of the 1st half.

RB Leipzig v FC Augsburg
Date: September 16th 2023
Venue: Red Bull Arena, Leipzig
Time: 14:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Leipzig: 1.22
Draw: 7.00
Augsburg: 11.0
After losing its opening fixture of the campaign, Leipzig responded strongly with dominant victories in its last 2 games. On Matchday 3, Leipzig got a 0-3 away win over top-4 rivals Union Berlin who had been a bogey team for them in the past few years.
Meanwhile, Augsburg will head into this clash as one of 7 Bundesliga teams that are still searching for its maiden win of the campaign. It could only earn a 2-2 stalemate at home against Bochum on Matchday 3 despite taking the lead twice during that game.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Which Teams to Score: Both Teams at 1.71
Marco Rose, the Leipzig manager, is known for a dynamic, attacking style of play and his team has scored at least 2 goals in each of the last 6 Bunedsliga matches stretching to the back end of last season. However, it only earned 1 clean sheet during this period.
Defensively, Augsburg has been quite poor for a long time now and it has only claimed 1 clean sheet from its previous 15 Bundesliga matches. Still, it has been quite consistent in front of goal and has failed to open its account in just 2 of those fixtures.
Leipzig Highest Scoring Half: 2nd Half at 1.96
Despite losing some key players, Leipzig has made some fine acquisitions in the summer that has been able to continue its attacking prowess. Leipzig has an astonishing tally of 19 goals from its last 6 league games and 16 of those were scored in the 2nd half.
On the other hand, Augsburg has now gone through 15 Bundesliga away matches without keeping a clean sheet. Moreover, it has conceded 3 or more goals in over half those games so it may well let in a couple more in the last 45 minutes of this clash.

SC Freiburg v BVB 09 Borussia Dortmund

Venue: Red Bull Arena, Leipzig
Time: 14:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Freiburg: 3.20
Draw: 3.80
Dortmund: 2.10
Despite winning its opening 2 games of the season, Freiburg was blown apart from start to finish in the 5-0 thrashing at Stuttgart on Matchday 3. This is a difficult match to get back on the winning track yet it could be a good time to face last season’s runners-up.
Borussia Dortmund let a 2 goal lead slip through its hands on Matchday 3 and were held to a 2-2 stalemate at home by newcomers Heidenheim. The disappointing end to the previous campaign is seemingly still hanging a black cloud over the morale of this team.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Total Goals: Under 3.5 at 1.66
Freiburg averaged below 2 goals per game at EuropaPark Stadion in 2022/23 and has scored just 7 times in its past 7 home games in the Bundesliga. But it has also bagged 3 clean sheets in this period and had the 2nd best defensive record at home last season.
On the other hand, Dortmund had the 2nd best scoring rate on the road but actually it averaged below 2 goals per game. And despite its unquestionable attacking capability, it has only managed to score 4 times in its first 3 fixtures of the current campaign.
Double Chance: Freiburg or Draw at 1.69
Home form is the backbone of this Freiburg side and it finished with 10 wins and just 3 defeats at EuropaPark Stadion last season. On top of that, Freiburg has collected 2 wins and 2 draws from its last 6 meetings against Dortmund on home turf.
Away form was the Achilles heel for Dortmund last season losing nearly a third of those fixtures even though it held the 2nd best record on the road. And its form at the start of the 2023/24 campaign has been quite mediocre thus far.

VfL Wolfsburg v 1.FC Union Berlin

Venue: Volkswagen Arena, Wolfsburg
Time: 14:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Wolfsburg: 2.25
Draw: 3.40
Union: 3.20
Wolfsburg fell to a 3-1 defeat at Hoffenheim on Matchday 4 despite taking the initial lead which put an end to its winning start to the season. It will now be looking to bounce back with a strong performance against one of the top teams in the division.
Union Berlin also has to come back from a defeat after losing 0-3 at home to Leipzig on Matchday 4. This is the last league game before Union begins its UEFA Champions League campaign and it will be tricky to find a balance between the two competitions.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Draw No Bet: Wolfsburg at 1.60
Wolfsburg did not do particularly well at home last season but it certainly managed to improve its form towards the back end. At the moment, it has only 1 defeat in the last 8 league matches at Volkswagen Arena, including 3 wins in its past 4 home games.
Away form is a contentious aspect for Union Berlin and it picked up more losses than victories on the road last season. While it did win its first away game of this season, it has still suffered 4 defeats in its previous 7 league matches away from home.
Which Team to Score: Both Teams at 1.69
As an attacking unit, Wolfsburg has shown quite consistent form at Volkswagen Arena having failed to score in just 3 of its last 18 home games. But defensively, it has kept just 2 clean sheets in the last 10 home fixtures while conceding 2 or more in half of them.
It is a pretty similar tale for Union Berlin on the road with the team earning just 2 clean sheets from its previous 10 away matches in the Bundesliga. Nevertheless, it has failed to open its account on just 2 occasions during this stretch.

1.FSV Mainz 05 v VfB Stuttgart 1893
Date: September 16th 2023
Venue: Mewa Arena, Mainz
Time: 14:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Mainz: 2.50
Draw: 3.60
Stuttgart: 2.71
Mainz is languishing in the relegation zone after failing to win any of its opening 3 fixtures of the new campaign. It was handed a 4-0 hammering at Werder Bremen on Matchday 3 which should raise a few concerns over the team even at this early stage.
In contrast, Stuttgart has been on an upward trajectory at the start of this season after blasting Freiburg 5-0 at home on Matchday 3. Stuttgart has won both its home games by the same margin although it also suffered a heavy defeat in its previous away game.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Stuttgart to Win Either Half: Yes at 1.80
Mainz has been on a downward spiral for a few months now with only 1 home win from the previous 6 games at Mewa Arena. Meanwhile, it is presently on an 8 match winless run and has picked up just 2 wins from its previous 14 league matches.
At the same time, Stuttgart has made steady improvement, especially from an attacking perspective since Sebastian Hoeneß arrived as the manager in April. Stuttgart has picked up 4 wins and tasted just 2 defeats in its past 10 Bundesliga matches.
Last Goal: Stuttgart at 2.00
Late goals are becoming a big issue for Mainz and it has conceded at least once in the final 10 minutes of all 3 league matches this season. On top of this, Mainz has conceded the last goal of the match in 8 of its previous 10 outings in the Bundesliga.
On the other hand, scoring a lot of goals during the latter period has been a major factor for Stuttgart in its resurgence under its current manager. It has netted the last goal in 7 of its previous 10 matches including the two-legged promotion-relegation playoff.

1.FC Köln v TSG Hoffenheim 1899

Venue: RheinEnergieStadion, Köln
Time: 14:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Köln: 2.28
Draw: 3.66
Hoffenheim: 3.00
After losing its opening 2 fixtures, Köln finally managed to open its tally for the season with a 1-1 stalemate at Eintracht Frankfurt on Matchday 3. It nearly held on for a victory but conceding a late goal meant that it had to share the spoils with the home team.
Hoffenheim has recorded back to back wins after losing on opening day with an impressive 3-1 home-win over Wolfsburg in Matchday 3. It has propelled the club up to 6th spot in the table and that is where it will hope to be at the end of this campaign.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Double Chance: Draw or Hoffenheim at 1.58
Considering it is yet to pick up its first win of the season, it is quite surprising to see Köln as a clear favourite with the bookies to win this clash. Actually, Köln has bagged only 1 win in response to the 5 defeats in the previous 8 league matches on home turf.
Despite losing on the opening week, Hoffenheim has built up a bit of momentum with successive victories leading up to this fixture. Moreover, Hoffenheim is undefeated in its past 6 visits to RheinEnergieStadion and has 4 wins over Köln in the last 5 away games.
Total Goals: Over 2.5 at 1.60
Köln has scored 8 goals in its last 8 Bundesliga matches at RheinEnergieStadion so it should open its account in this clash. But it has only earned 1 clean sheet in this period and has conceded at least 2 goals in 5 of those games including each of the previous 3.
Hoffenheim has racked up 7 goals in the first 3 league matches of the new campaign and it has failed to score in only 1 of its previous 14 games in the Bundesliga. However, the defence is still quite porous as it has picked up only 1 clean sheet during this period.

VfL Bochum 1848 v Eintracht Frankfurt
Date: September 16th 2023
Venue: Vonovia Ruhrstadion, Bochum
Time: 17:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Bochum: 2.90
Draw: 3.60
Frankfurt: 2.33
Bochum is presently hanging just above the drop zone in 15th position even though it is yet to pick up its first win of the campaign. On Matchday 3, it had to come back from a goal down twice in order to earn a point in the 2-2 stalemate at Augsburg.
It has been a fairly lukewarm start for Eintracht Frankfurt although it has stayed unbeaten through the opening 3 rounds. For the second week running, it needed a late equaliser to earn a point in a 1-1 draw, this time at home against Köln on Matchday 3.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Total Goals: Over 2.5 at 1.71
Bochum averaged more than 1.5 goals on home turf in the 2022/23 campaign and it has scored 2 or more in 8 of the last 14 league matches at the Ruhrstadion. But it has only kept 3 clean sheets during this time while conceding 2 or more goals on 6 occasions.
On the other side, Eintracht Frankfurt has not managed a single clean sheet in the previous 21 league matches on the road. In addition to this, Frankfurt has also conceded at least 2 goals in 8 of its previous 9 Bundesliga fixtures away from home.
Double Chance: Bochum or Draw at 1.57
While Bochum ended the previous season a mere 2 points above the relegation zone, it still managed to have the 9th best home record in the division. At present, Bochum has 8 wins and 2 draws from its previous 14 Bundesliga matches at the Ruhrstadion.
Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt barely averaged a point per game on the road last season and it is currently on a 12 match winless streak in the Bundesliga. This includes its recent run of 6 defeats in the previous 9 away matches.

1.FC Heidenheim v SV Werder Bremen
Date: September 17th 2023
Venue: Voith-Arena, Heidenheim
Time: 14:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Bochum: 2.33
Draw: 3.80
Frankfurt: 2.80
Thus far, Bundesliga debutants Heidenheim have given a pretty solid account even though it lies right above the drop zone. It certainly produced the biggest surprise of Matchday 3 by returning home with a 2-2 draw at Borussia Dortmund.
Werder Bremen also raised a few eyebrows on Matchday 3 with the 4-0 demolition job over Mainz for its maiden win of the season. But Bremen is a very erratic side so it is hard to say whether this team has really turned a corner after securing this result.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Draw No Bet: Heidenheim at 1.75
Heidenheim had the best home record in 2.Bundesliga last season with 12 wins and only 1 defeat and it nearly secured its first top-flight victory in the last home games. It is unbeaten against Bremen at Voith-Arena with 2 wins from 3 games in all competitions.
Meanwhile, Werder Bremen has only notched 2 wins from its previous 13 Bundesliga matches on the road. It has also suffered 9 defeats during this stretch which includes its ongoing 4 match losing streak away from home.
Total Goals: Over 2.5 at 1.71
Clean sheets will be hard to come by for Heidenheim even though it had the 2nd best defensive record in 2.bundesliga last season. But it averaged nearly 2.5 goals at Voith-Arena and it has already shown its capability for scoring goals against any opposition.
Werder Bremen has been shambolic defensively with only 1 clean sheet in its last 15 away matches in the Bundesliga and conceding 2 or more in 10 of those games. Still, it has managed to score 10 times over the course of its past 7 league games on the road.

SV Darmstadt 1898 v Borussia VfL Mönchengladbach
Date: September 17th 2023
Venue: Merck-Stadion, Darmstadt
Time: 16:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Darmstadt: 2.90
Draw: 3.60
M’gladbach: 2.33
Darmstadt is at the very bottom of the Bundesliga table and the only team without a point to its name after starting with 3 consecutive defeats. On Matchday 3, Darmstadt did reasonably early on before it succumbed to a 5-1 hammering at Bayer Leverkusen.
Borussia M’gladbach also finds itself in the relegation zone at this early stage after failing to get a win from the first 3 fixtures. M’gladbach held a halftime lead over Bayern München on Matchday 3 but eventually lost 1-2 after conceding a late goal.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Double Chance: Darmstadt or Draw at 1.57
Home form will be the major aspect for Darmstadt in its bid to avoid relegation therefore it will be throwing its full weight in these fixtures. It had the 2nd best home record in 2.Bundesliga last season with 11 wins and only 1 defeat in the entire campaign.
For M’gladbach, away form has been a big issue for a long while now and it is currently on a 9 match winless run on the road in the Bundesliga. It ended with the 3rd worst away record last season with 9 losses and only 1 win during the 2022/23 campaign.
Which Team to Score: Both Teams at 1.58
Darmstadt has let in 10 goals in the opening 3 fixtures but all those matches were against some of the strongest teams in the division. It still scored a goal in the last 2 matches so it should definitely open its account against a team with a very leaky defence.
Borussia M’gladbach only has 1 clean sheet in its past 15 league matches on road and it has conceded at least 2 goals in 11 of those games. Nevertheless, it has done quite well from an attacking sense having netted 10 times in the previous 5 away fixtures.
