BT Sport 3, from 2.30pm Sunday

Leverkusen v Mainz2.30pm
Leverkusen are yet to earn a point in the Bundesliga this season and could be frustrated further when they welcome Mainz to the BayArena.

Die Werkself came from two goals down to beat Ludogorets in the Europa League on Thursday, but fatigue could be an issue against Sandro Schwarz’s side, who are yet to taste defeat, and look good value to earn something from the game.

Recommendation
Mainz or draw double chance
