Hoffenheim v Mainz

International viewers are likely to be drawn to Bayern Munich v Stuttgart or RB Leipzig v Borussia Dortmund when it comes to Saturday's Bundesliga action but the game of the day could come from the PreZero Arena.

That's where Hoffenheim host Mainz and something has to give. Hoffenheim have won both of their home matches this season, while the visitors have a perfect three victories from as many away outings.

Last Friday's 1-0 defeat at Dortmund ended Die Kraichgauer's run of three straight successes but they will hope to make home advantage pay.

However, Mainz have won the pair's last three meetings, two of which have been in Sinsheim. Having already taken out Bochum, Augsburg and Borussia Monchengladbach on the road, they will fancy themselves to make it four in a row.

Inter v Torino

Inter have endured a miserable week. A 3-2 defeat to Milan in last Saturday's Derby della Madonnina was a bad start and they followed it up with a 2-0 Champions League loss to Bayern Munich.

Tuesday's trip to Viktoria Plzen may prove the perfect European tonic but before that they host a Torino side sitting a point above them in the standings.

Andrea Belotti's departure on a free transfer was forecast to be a disaster for Il Toro but they have quietly impressed, losing just one of their opening five Serie A matches.

Summer signing Nikola Vlasic seems to be making up for Belotti's absence and while Inter should win, one clean sheet all season suggests they are vulnerable.

Atletico Madrid v Celta Vigo

What do you do when you can't select arguably your best player to start games?

The complications surrounding Antoine Griezmann's loan from Barcelona to Atletico Madrid have left him in limbo, with certain clauses regarding his playing time believed to be restricting his chances of making Diego Simeone's starting line-up.

Despite that, the Frenchman remains a crucial cog for Los Colchoneros and he again came off the bench to score the winner in Wednesday's 2-1 Champions League victory over Porto.

He is likely to fulfil a similar role on Saturday against improving Celta Vigon who arriving in the capital after picking up wins over Girona and Cadiz.

They do, though, have a terrible record away against Atletico, failing to beat them on the road in La Liga since 2007.

After Wednesday's drama, this could be a more sedate affair but don't be surprised to see another Griezmann goal in a similarly tight victory.
