Fatigue makes Hoffenheim vulnerable on trip to Hannover

BT Sport, from 5.30pm Tuesday

Werder Bremen v Hertha BerlinBT Sport 2, 5.30pm
Two of the Bundesliga's unbeaten teams go head-to-head at the Weserstadion and they might be happy to settle for a share of the spoils.

Second-placed Hertha Berlin are doing more than anyone to keep tabs on leaders Bayern but they haven't won at Werder Bremen since 2006.

Recommendation
Draw
1pt 13-5 Betfred

Key stat
Bremen are unbeaten in their last ten home games against Hertha.

Bayern v AugsburgBT Sport 2, 7.30pm
The start of the Champions League does not seem to have had an adverse impact on Bayern Munich's league performances and their perfect start to the season can continue at home to Augsburg.

Bayern posted a pair of 2-0 away wins last week – against Benfica and Schalke – and the match with fellow Bavarians Augsburg looks even easier than those assignments.

Recommendation
Bayern Munich to win 3-0
1pt 8-1 Betfair

Key stat
Bayern have won each of their last six matches against Augsburg by at least two goals.

Hannover v HoffenheimBT Sport ESPN, 7.30pm
Hannover's home results will be key to keeping them away from the relegation zone and the visit of Hoffenheim presents them with a good chance of registering a first win of the season.

Hoffenheim have had a testing week – drawing 2-2 away to Shakhtar Donetsk and 1-1 at home to Borussia Dortmund – and may dip below their usual standards due to fatigue.

Recommendation
Hannover
1pt 5-2 bet365, Betway

Key stat
Hannover have won their last two home league fixtures against Hoffenheim without conceding a goal.
