Most of the attention for this weekend’s matches will be focused on the game between Mainz 05 and Borussia Dortmund, but there are several interesting matches both before and after the heavyweight clash in the Stadion am Bruchweg. Champions Bayern Munich host early season surprises SC Freiburg and the Bundesliga’s leading scorer Papiss Cissé in the late game on Friday as they try to push back into the title race, while Kaiserslautern and Borussia Mönchengladbach will play out one of the first relegation six-pointers of the season on Saturday.
Bundesliga, Week 10: Borussia Dormund And Mainz 05 Battle For First
Elsewhere, Werder Bremen will host Nuremberg in an interesting clash between attack-minded sides, Stuttgart will look to keep their new-found form going against Wolfsburg, and Schalke 04 will seek their first home win of the season against Bayer Leverkusen. Hannover 96 take on TSG Hoffenheim in an extremely interesting battle for third place in the late Sunday kickoff, but the match of the weekend will certainly be the clash between the showdown between Jürgen Klopp’s Dortmund and Thomas Tuchel’s high-flying Mainz. Both sides play high-tempo, attacking football, and their match on Sunday should be one of the best of the season.
