Topic: Germany Bundesliga picks 3-5/12

Friday:


St Pauli vs Kaiserslautern

St Pauli are at the bottom of the form table and Kaiserslautern have been pritty impressive recently.

Kaiserslautern win.


Saturday:


Frankfurt vs Mainz

Frankfurt have 1-1-1 on their last three home games while Mainz have 2-0-1 on their last three away games.

Over 2.5 goals.


Freiburg vs Hamburger

Freiburg have 2-0-1 on their last three home games while Hamburger have 0-0-3 on their last three away games.

Freiburg win.


Moenchengladbach vs Hannover

Moenchengladbach have been very weak recently but Hannover have not been too good in their recent away games.

Over 2.5 goals.


Stuttgart vs Hoffenheim

Stuttgart have 2-0-1 on their last three home games while Hoffenheim have 1-1-1 on their last three away games.

Over 2.5 goals.


Wolfsburg vs Bremen

Wolfsburg have failed to impress me recently, but they face a very weak Werder Bremen side in this one and should be able to win at home.

Wolfsburg win and Over 2.5 goals.


Schalke vs Bayern

Bayern have superb form and I believe they have a good chance at beating Schalke in this one.

Over 2.5 goals.


Sunday:


Leverkusen vs Koln

Leverkusen have been very strong recently and I will be surprised if they do not manage to win this one at home.

Leverkusen win.


Nurnberg vs Dortmund

Dortmund have been outstanding recently but they face a very strong team in this one and it could end close.

Over 2.5 goals.
