Date: 27th October 2023
Venue: Vonovia Ruhrstadion, Bochum
Time: 19:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Bochum: 2.45
Draw: 3.50
Mainz: 2.80
Bochum is still searching for its league win of the campaign as it slipped back into 17th position in the Bundesliga table at the end of Matchday 8. It was handed a 2-1 defeat at Freiburg on Saturday afternoon despite taking an early lead in the match.
Meanwhile, Mainz was sent back to 18th spot in the league standings on Matchday 8 just a week after lifting itself from the bottom of the table. Mainz gave a decent performance but still went down to 1-3 loss at home against the champions Bayern München.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Total Goals: Over 2.5 at 1.78
Bochum averaged more than 1.5 goals at home last season and it has scored 14 times during its ongoing 9 game scoring streak at the Ruhrstadion. However, it has only earned 2 clean sheets during this period while conceding 2 or more goals on 4 occasions.
Therefore Mainz should be able to open its account in this contest despite scoring just 7 goals in the previous 8 home games. But it did not pick up any clean sheets during this time while letting in more than 2 goals in half of those matches.
Draw No Bet: Bochum at 1.78
Strong home form was the chief reason why Bochum was able to avoid relegation last season and the route to survival looks much the same this season, as well. Bochum has taken 9 points from its last 6 home games despite facing some big teams during this time.
Meanwhile, Mainz has been struggling on its travels for a long while and has only notched 2 wins from its previous 15 away matches in the Bundesliga. It is presently on an 8 game winless on the road which includes 5 defeats from its last 7 matches

Venue: WWK Arena, Augsburg
Time: 14:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Augsburg: 2.90
Draw: 3.50
Wolfsburg: 2.33
Successive losses had left Augsburg just above the drop zone before it bagged some much needed points with a 2-5 win at Heidenheim on Matchday 8. The timely victory has allowed Augsburg to jump 5 places up the league table to 10th position at the end of the week.
After a bright start to the season, Wolfsburg has been dealt consecutive defeats with the 1-2 loss at home to Bayer Leverkusen. As a result, Wolfsburg dropped down to 9th in the table but it will not fall any lower this weekend regardless of the outcome of this clash.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Double Chance: Augsburg or Draw at 1.57
The new manager of Augsburg, Jess Thorup has got off to an excellent start by breaking a yearlong winless run on the road and he should improve the home form as well. Despite underachieving at WWK Arena, Augsburg has lost just 3 of its past 13 home games.
Despite its strong start, Wolfsburg has definitely lost its confidence after suffering 4 defeats in the last 6 Bundesliga matches. Moreover, it has been struggling on the road for a long while now after taking 6 losses in the previous 8 league matches away from home.
Which Teams to Score: Both Teams at 1.58
Augsburg is yet to earn a clean sheet this season having conceded 2 goals in every game so far and it has got only 1 in the last 10 home games. But it has failed to score in 1 of the last 13 matches at WWK Arena and has recorded 11 goals in its 4 home games this season.
Wolfsburg should be able to open its tally as well even though it has managed just 4 goals in the 4 away games this season. Meanwhile it has not picked up a clean sheet from its previous 8 away fixtures as well, while letting in 2 or more goals in half of those games.

VfB Stuttgart 1893 v TSG 1899 Hoffenheim
Date: 28th October 2023
Venue: MHPArena, Stuttgart
Time: 14:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Stuttgart: 2.90
Draw: 3.50
Hoffenheim: 2.33
Continuing its outstanding start to the campaign, Stuttgart has not lost any momentum and in fact, seems to be growing in stature with every passing week. It bagged an easy 0-3 win at Union Berlin on Matchday 8 to maintain its grip on 2nd place in the Bundesliga table.
Hoffenheim suffered another setback on home soil after losing 1-3 to Eintracht Frankfurt at the PreZero Arena on Saturday afternoon. This has dropped Hoffenheim back to 6th position in the Bundesliga and it currently lags 5 points behind a top 4 spot.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Double Chance: Augsburg or Draw at 1.57
Stuttgart has the best scoring record at home this season having scored 16 goals in the 4 matches at MHPArena with at least 3 goals in every game. It has also picked 4 clean sheets overall from the 8 league matches thus far although it is unlikely to get one in this clash.
That is because Hoffenheim has the best scoring record on the road at the moment with at least 2 goals in all 4 away matches this season. However, it has only managed 1 clean sheet overall and has conceded 2 or more goals in 5 of the 8 league matches.
Double Chance: Draw or Hoffenheim at 1.57
After racking up 6 victories in a row, Stuttgart is currently the hottest team in the Bundesliga based on current form. This includes a perfect 4 wins out of 4 on home turf this season but it will have to play incredibly well to continue this winning run.
The reason for that is pretty simple; Hoffenheim presently has the best away record in the division after winning all of its opening 4 away matches of the 2023/24 campaign. Keeping this run going will be extremely difficult but it should be able to avoid a defeat.

FC Bayern München v SV Darmstadt 1898
Date: 28th October 2023
Venue: Allianz Arena, Munich
Time: 14:30 UTC
Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Bayern: 1.07
Draw: 12.0
Darmstadt: 26.0
Bayern München avoided another budding setback in the early season before going on to take a comfortable 1-3 win at Mainz on Matchday 8. Yet, in spite of putting up back to back victories, Bayern has not made any ground and remains 2 points off the top in 3rd position.
After notching successive league wins, Darmstadt was brought back down to earth with the 1-3 loss at home to Leipzig last Saturday. At the moment, it is sitting on 12th spot in the Bundesliga table and it still holds a 3 point advantage over the bottom 3 teams.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Highest Scoring Half: 2nd Half at 1.80
It is no surprise that Bayern München leads the league for the most goals having scored 26 times in the 8 matches with 14 of those coming in the 2nd half. Moreover, 2 of the 3 goals that it has conceded at home this season have been within the final 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, Darmstadt jointly holds the worst defensive record in the Bundesliga and 13 of the 22 goals that it has conceded so far have been recorded during the latter period. It has got 4 goals in 4 away games till this season with half of them being scored in the 2nd half.
Which Teams to Score: Both Teams at 1.85
Bayern München has won all 5 previous meetings with Darmstadt across all competitions and it has scored 15 times in the 4 home games this season. But it has not quite been as imposing defensively and can actually concede a goal against any team in the division.
Darmstadt clearly does not have any realistic chance of getting even a point out of this game. Therefore it has absolutely nothing to lose here and it might take the fight to the opposition, especially with the confidence of having scored 9 goals in the previous 5 games.

M’gladbach: 1.80
Draw: 4.00
Heidenheim: 4.00
On Matchday 8, Borussia M’gladbach was handed a 3-1 defeat at Westphalia rivals Köln after giving up a couple of late goals. With this result, M’gladbach has dropped back down to 13th spot in the Bundesliga table with a 2 point margin over the relegation zone.

Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
First Goal: Borussia M’gladbach at 1.55
Borussia M’gladbach has done reasonably well as an attacking unit having scored 14 goals till now with 8 of those coming during the 1st half. On top of that, M’gladbach has managed to get the opening goal in 4 of its 8 matches this season.
On the other hand, Heidenheim has conceded 10 goals on the road thus far with 6 of these being registered within the first 45 minutes. Moreover, it has only got 3 goals away from home so far with none of them coming during the 1st period.
Borussia M’gladbach Total Goals: Over at 1.55
M’gladbach averaged nearly 2 goals per game at home in 2022/23 so it should be able to overcome its ongoing struggles at Borussia-Park this season. It seems to have recovered some form after scoring 2 goals in the previous home game.
Heidenheim has the 2nd worst away record in the Bundesliga after taking just 1 point from its first 4 league fixtures on the road. On top of that, it has conceded 10 times in these 4 matches after letting in at least 2 goals in every away game so far.

Sportaza Football Betting Odds
Bremen: 2.62
Draw: 3.40
Union: 3.66
Werder Bremen delivered quite a resilient performance on Matchday 8 but it still was not enough to prevent it from taking a 1-0 loss at Borussia Dortmund. With this latest defeat, Bremen is currently lying just 2 points above the drop zone in 15th position.
There seems to be no end in sight to the disastrous form of Union Berlin as it faltered to a 0-3 home defeat to Stuttgart on Saturday afternoon. Union hangs 2 points over the bottom 3 in 16th position and is also on the verge of elimination from the UEFA Champions League.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Total Goals: Over 2.5 at 1.84
Even though it languishes at the lower end of the table, Werder Bremen averages 1.5 goals per game and has scored 8 times in its 4 home games. Yet it has also conceded 8 goals in these 4 games so it is unlikely to keep a clean sheet in this game.
Union Berlin had the joint defense in the Bundesliga last season but it has not earned a single clean sheet in the current campaign. But it is performing slightly better on the road and has scored 7 times in the 4 away fixtures thus far.
Draw No Bet: Werder Bremen at 1.87
There is little to choose between the two sides at the moment with Werder Bremen suffering 6 defeats in the 8 league matches so far. However, it has picked up 2 wins from its 4 home games so there is a definite home advantage in this clash.
Meanwhile, Union Berlin heads into this match on the back of a 9 match losing streak across all competitions. After starting its Bundesliga campaign with a couple of victories, Union has lost the 6 league matches in a row including each of the previous 3 away fixtures.

Having made a horrendous start, Köln has finally managed to pick up its first 3 points of the season with the 3-1 home win over Borussia M’gladbach this past Sunday. It has lifted Köln from the bottom of the Bundesliga table to 16th place with a 2 points margin to safety.

Frankfurt: 3.14
Draw: 3.60
Dortmund: 2.22
Following a sluggish start to the season, Eintracht Frankfurt has notched back to back league wins with an impressive 1-3 comeback win at Hoffenheim on Matchday 8. It takes Eintracht up to 7th spot in the Bundesliga table but it still lies 7 points away from a top 4 berth.
At the same time, Borussia Dortmund was able to continue its winning run with a hard fought 1-0 victory at home against Werder Bremen. The result was crucial in keeping Dortmund a mere 2 points behind the top spot in the Bundesliga table in 4th position.
Eagle Bet Featured Betting Tips
Total Goals: Over 2.5 at 1.60
This may not be a very high scoring encounter as Eintracht Frankfurt averages just about 1 goal per game while it has also kept 3 clean sheets in its 4 home fixtures. Nevertheless, each of the previous 5 meetings between these two teams has produced at least 3 goals.
Borussia Dortmund has not really fired on all cylinders as yet but it still averages over 2 goals per game and has netted 8 times in its 3 away games in the Bundesliga. Still, it has not earned a clean sheet on the road and it will probably stay that way at the end of this match.
Draw No Bet: Borussia Dortmund at 1.68
Frankfurt has remained unbeaten in the past 14 league matches at Deutsche Bank Park although it has only bagged 4 wins from the previous 10 home games. Incidentally, its last defeat on its own turf was exactly a year ago against the very same opposition.
Meanwhile, Borussia Dortmund will head into this clash on with supreme confidence a 5 game winning streak despite not really performing at its very best. Besides, it has won each of the previous 5 meetings with Frankfurt including its last 2 visits to Deutsche Bank Park.
