Sunday's Bundesliga predictions including Freiburg vs. Bayer Leverkusen

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Bundesliga fixtures, including Freiburg vs. Bayer Leverkusen.


Augsburg vs. Holstein Kiel (Sunday, 2.30pm)

In a battle that will impact the race for survival and European football, Augsburg will host second last Holstein Kiel at WWK Arena on Sunday in their third final Bundesliga game of the season.

Augsburg are in 10th place with 43 points and will almost certainly need to win to have hopes of qualifying for Europe, while the 17th-placed visitors have 22 points following their 4-3 victory against Borussia Monchengladbach on April 26 and occupy the second of two automatic relegation spots.

We say: Augsburg 1-1 Holstein Kiel


It is difficult to separate the sides given both have not managed to achieve many positive results in the last weeks.

Neither team have been particularly productive in the final third in their recent matches, and they could play out a low-scoring stalemate.

Freiburg vs. B. Leverkusen (Sunday, 4.30pm)

By the time visitors Bayer Leverkusen play fourth-placed Freiburg at Europa-Park Stadion on Sunday, Bayern Munich may have already taken their Bundesliga crown.

The hosts currently have 51 points and occupy the final Champions League qualification spot, whereas second-placed Leverkusen beat Augsburg 2-0 on April 26, but their points tally of 67 is eight fewer than Bayern with just three games remaining.

We say: Freiburg 1-2 Bayer Leverkusen


Although Leverkusen have been strong from a defensive perspective, they will be facing a confident Freiburg side.

While the hosts are likely to pose significant challenges on Sunday, the champions boast a phenomenal away record and could claim all three points.

Mainz vs. Frankfurt (Sunday, 6.30pm)

With Champions League football still to play for in the final three Bundesliga games of the season, Mainz 05 will welcome Eintracht Frankfurt to Mewa Arena on Sunday.

The seventh-placed hosts' tally of 47 points means they are four points and three places from the division's final Champions League spot, while the Eagles are third with 55 points and managed to beat RB Leipzig 4-0 on April 26.

We say: Mainz 05 1-2 Eintracht Frankfurt


Mainz have proven to be defensively vulnerable, and the visitors will be confident of securing a positive result given have not often been beaten in the Bundesliga recently.

However, Eintracht Frankfurt are likely to encounter difficulties at Mewa Arena considering they have struggled away from home, though they should still be seen as favourites on Sunday.
