Bayer 04
Bayer 04 is showing an impressive performance this season and holds second place in the league table. With only two losses in 32 games, they present themselves as an extremely stable team. Their play is characterized by high pressing pressure, quick transitions, and purposeful possession play. However, their form has slightly dipped in the last five matches, in which they achieved two wins and three draws. Opponents are increasingly better defensively, so sometimes the necessary breakthrough power is missing. Despite some difficulties, they remain strong at home and are considered an intelligent top club.

Borussia Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund currently stands in fifth place and has shown inconsistency this season. With 11 losses in 32 games and a vulnerable defense conceding 49 goals, the team fluctuates too often. However, in the last five games, Dortmund seems to be gaining momentum again with four wins and one draw. Offensively they are currently showing more life and successful combinations, but the defense remains vulnerable, especially to fast counterattacks and spaces between defenders and midfield. They struggle more away from home but are currently in good form.

Injuries
Bayer 04 is missing Nordi Mukiele, Alejo Sarco, Mario Hermoso, Jeanuël Belocian, and Martin Terrier. Borussia Dortmund has to do without Maximilian Beier, Cole Campbell, Filippo Mané, and Nico Schlotterbeck. These absences may affect the squad depth and tactical flexibility of both teams.

Head-to-head matches
The direct encounters between Bayer 04 and Borussia Dortmund have been balanced and varied in recent years. Results like 2:3, 1:1, 0:2, or 1:0 show that both teams can neutralize each other well but are also capable of high-scoring games. Especially the last meetings with two 1:1 draws indicate a tactical balance but also offensive potential on both sides.

Match forecast
Considering the current attacking and defensive strengths of both teams, a high-scoring game is expected. Bayer 04 usually controls the game well and actively looks for ways to goal. Borussia Dortmund is currently dangerous in offense, but their vulnerable defense will open spaces for Bayer. The statistics and current performances suggest many goals, with the possibility that both teams will score at least once. The odds of 1.45 for over 2.5 goals reflect a high probability of a game with at least three goals and represent an attractive bet.

My tip: Over 2.5 goals (1.45)

Hannover 96
Hannover 96 currently occupies 8th place with 49 points from 32 games. The team recently showed two wins and three losses, without any draws, indicating a decisive approach to matches. With a goal difference of +5 and an average goal result of 2.28 per game, their focus is on organized and pragmatic football, maintaining both defensive stability and offensive capability. They score an average of 1.22 goals and concede 1.06 per game.

Greuther Fürth
Greuther Fürth currently struggles in 15th place, with only 35 points and a significantly negative goal difference of -15 (41 goals scored, 56 conceded). The last five games were catastrophic with only one draw and four losses. The team shows defensive weaknesses with an average of 1.75 goals conceded per game and also lacks stable offensive output. Their current problems and injuries additionally burden the already fragile squad, especially as away matches are traditionally more difficult.

Injuries
For Hannover, important defensive players Knight (suspension), Tomiak (red card), and Halstenberg (suspensions) are missing, but this is still manageable. Greuther Fürth has several injured players including Asta, Banse, Koerber, and Calhanoglu, which further weakens the already thin squad depth.

Head-to-Head
In the last five direct encounters, Hannover 96 clearly has the upper hand with three wins. At home, they recently won twice with 2-1 against Fürth, indicating home strength and a certain superiority over this opponent.

Match Prediction
The visitors from Fürth are in poor form and have devastating defensive problems. Against the organized and strong-at-home defense of Hannover 96, a controlled match is therefore expected, with Hannover aiming to control the game and Fürth hardly able to apply offensive pressure. Despite the offensive potential of both teams, everything points to a game with less than 3.5 goals, as Hannover primarily relies on defense and efficiency and Fürth rarely becomes dangerous.

My tip: Under 3.5 goals (1.43)

Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham currently occupy 16th place with 38 points from 35 games. The Spurs’ season has been inconsistent: a strong start followed by a dip in form with only one win in the last five matches. Offensively, they score just under two goals per game but are defensively vulnerable, conceding an average of 1.63 goals. The defense particularly suffers from key injuries, which favors the opponents' fast counterattacks. The home game should provide security, but there have also been uncertainties and lapses here.

Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace are in 12th place with 46 points. The Eagles show a more stable season with fewer defeats than Tottenham and a more robust defense. Although they have not won in their last five games, they have multiple draws against challenging opponents. The team is characterized by an organized and pragmatic style of play, often acting defensively and seeking quick counterattacks. Despite having less offensive power, they currently appear much more solid.

Injuries
Tottenham must do without key players, including James Maddison (knee), Dominic Solanke (hip), and Radu Drăgușin (cruciate ligament tear), which strongly affects both offensive and defensive play. Crystal Palace also miss players such as Cheick Doucouré (knee surgery) and Chadi Riad (cruciate ligament tear), but their absences seem less severe for the overall structure.

Head-to-Head
The recent encounters have been balanced: Crystal Palace narrowly won 1-0 at home in October 2024, and Tottenham took revenge with a 3-1 home win in March 2024. Overall, the record shows 3 wins for Tottenham and 2 for Palace in the last five duels, with no draws. The games have exhibited varied character, sometimes low-scoring, sometimes high-scoring, with no clear dominator.

Match Prediction
Considering the current form, injury situation, and the playing philosophies of both teams, a close game is expected. Tottenham will try to control the match but struggle with defensive weaknesses that Crystal Palace can certainly exploit. Palace will primarily focus on defense and watch for counterattacks. The statistics and playing styles of both teams indicate goals on both sides, since Tottenham will not waste their chances lightly and Palace is dangerous on the counter. The odds of 1.43 for the bet "Both teams to score: Yes" are thus very attractive and realistic.

My tip: Both teams to score: Yes (1.43)

Barcelona
Barcelona enters this prestigious derby as league leaders with 79 points after 34 matchdays. With 91 goals, the team has the strongest offense in the league. The Catalans currently display impressive form with four wins and one draw in their last five matches. In play, Barcelona is characterized by a controlled possession strategy where the team deliberately searches for space and often builds their attacks from the wings. Despite their offensive strength, there are occasional defensive weaknesses, especially against fast counterattacks from opponents. The generally high average number of goals and the 62% probability of both teams scoring point to an exciting and high-scoring game at home at the Camp Nou.

Real Madrid
Real Madrid sits in second place with 75 points and continues to fight for the championship. The team is known for its pragmatic playing style, utilizing quick transitions and often attacking through the center. The defense is generally solid, but currently the team is significantly weakened by many injuries, especially in defense. In the last five games, there were four wins but also one loss, which could affect the morale ahead of this important duel. Despite defensive absences, Real remains a dangerous opponent capable of producing scoring chances through individual class. Away from home, the team generally plays more cautiously, but the fast counterattacks remain a major threat to the home side.

Injuries
Real Madrid is struggling with a severe injury wave in defense. Key players such as Rodrygo, Ferland Mendy, David Alaba, Antonio Rüdiger, Daniel Carvajal, and Éder Militão are all sidelined, leaving a big gap in defense. Midfielder Eduardo Camavinga is also missing. Barcelona is missing important defensive players Alejandro Balde and Jules Koundé, two key players in defense, but these absences are less severe compared to Real. Real’s defensive stability is therefore greatly impacted, giving Barcelona significant chances in offense.

Head-to-head encounters
The recent direct encounters between Barcelona and Real Madrid have been very high-scoring and dramatic, with an average goal tally of 4.8 per game. Highlights include a 5-2 and a 4-0 win for Barcelona as well as a 4-1 victory for Real Madrid. These matches show that encounters between these giants are rarely characterized by defensive play and instead promise an open and attacking game. Both Barcelona and Real have clearly demonstrated in the past that they are capable of high-scoring results, indicating an exciting duel with many goals.

Match prediction
Although previous big and offensive results often included more than 4 goals, the current injury concerns at Real Madrid suggest a defensively unstable team that could lose points and concede goals against Barcelona’s strong offense. At the same time, despite their offensive strength and home advantage, Barcelona can also be occasionally defensively vulnerable. Therefore, the game will definitely be high-scoring, but a particularly high score with more than 4.5 goals is less likely, since the defensive insecurity and caution of both teams probably won’t allow too many goals beyond that level. The recommendation is therefore to bet on under 4.5 goals, which given the circumstances is a safe and well-founded tip with odds of 1.40.

My tip: Under 4.5 goals (1.40)

Stuttgart
Stuttgart is facing its last chance to end its home defeat streak this Bundesliga season. The team plays appealing football but has often failed to finish effectively in recent matches. Most recently, they secured a narrow victory against St. Pauli, but at home Stuttgart has an unprecedented run of six consecutive losses. Despite everything, the team is determined to save the season and possibly reach the Europa League via the DFB Cup.

Augsburg
Augsburg recently suffered two defeats, bringing an end to their impressive streak of twelve games without a loss. The team is mid-table and currently seems under less pressure. The coach has given the team more freedom, and especially the active pressing style showed effect against Bayer Leverkusen, although it also left them vulnerable. Augsburg has displayed solid away form and lost only once in their last nine Bundesliga away games.

Injuries
Stuttgart is still missing key players such as Leonidas Stergiou, who was valuable on the right side of defense. Additionally, other players are injured or doubtful. Augsburg has only one long-term injured player, Yusuf Kabadayi; Banks and Berisha are doubtful but do not play a key role.

Head-to-Head
This season, Stuttgart has already won both direct encounters against Augsburg with a score of 1-0 each. These results underline Stuttgart's previous superiority in the direct meetings. Nevertheless, Augsburg remains an uncomfortable opponent who rarely loses away games.

Game Prediction
Although Stuttgart has already been victorious twice against Augsburg this season and home advantage is a strong argument, the long home losing streak weighs on their confidence. Augsburg comes as a robust away team in good form and will not be easy to beat. Nevertheless, we rely on Stuttgart's motivation and home strength, as they finally want and must secure a home win again. Therefore, we recommend the bet Stuttgart to win with odds of 1.55.

My tip: Stuttgart to win (1.55)

Athletic Bilbao
Athletic Bilbao is currently 4th in the league with 61 points after 34 games. The record of 50 goals scored and 26 conceded shows a strong balance. The team is especially convincing at home through intense pressing and a broad attacking play over the wings and the center. Despite a small crisis in results with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 1 loss in the last five games, they appear very stable and convincing at home. The team is tactically disciplined but can quickly switch play and effectively exploit chances when the opportunity arises.

Alavés
Alavés sits in 17th place with 35 points and a negative goal difference of -11 (35 scored, 46 conceded). The team recently shows a similar form as Athletic Bilbao: 2 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss in the last five games. Alavés demonstrates an improved defense and fighting spirit but has a weak offense that mostly relies on long balls or individual actions. They struggle significantly away from home, especially against technically skilled opponents with fast passing play, where they lack speed and precision.

Injuries
Both teams enter the match with almost full squads. There are no serious absences, allowing the coaches to choose their strongest lineups. This is likely to lead to a high-quality and tactically shaped game.

Head-to-Head
The recent direct encounters clearly favor Athletic Bilbao, especially at home. In the latest meetings, there were two clear home wins in the cup (both 2-0) and two draws in the league. The matches were often close and low-scoring, indicating a combative and strategically oriented encounter where defense work is prioritized.

Match Prediction
Given Athletic Bilbao’s home strength and Alavés’ defensive orientation with offensive difficulties, a rather low-scoring game is expected. This can be explained by the tactical discipline of both teams and the high competitive pressure, as much is at stake on both sides. The betting markets support the bet "Under 2.5 goals" with odds of 1.50, as it is unlikely many goals will be scored.

My tip: Under 2.5 goals (1.50)
