Saturday, 2.30pm
RB Leipzig recorded an eyecatching win over Sporting Lisbon in the Champions League on Wednesday but winning in a competition from which you have already been eliminated and winning a high-pressure league fixture are two different things.
The Red Bulls could find life much tougher at home to Bayer Leverkusen, who have won eight games on the spin in the Bundesliga and are once again the most likely team to knock Bayern Munich off top spot.
Saturday, 2.30pm
Defeats to Bayer Leverkusen and Union Berlin in their last two matches have given Mainz a bit of a reality check in the Bundesliga but they can return to winning ways against Stuttgart.
Before those losses, Mainz had won six of their previous seven games, beating both Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich at the Mewa Arena, where they seem to excel.
They can get the better of Stuttgart, who had to travel to Slovan Bratislava on Tuesday and may not be at their sharpest.
Saturday, 5pm
Napoli laid down a marker in the race for the Scudetto with their 3-2 win over Atalanta last Saturday, prompting Antonio Conte to get the fans going when speaking through a megaphone at Naples International Airport.
There is reason to celebrate given that was their sixth win on the spin in Serie A and they can edge Juventus, who have dropped points in three of their last four league games.
Saturday, 6pm
Lille gave Liverpool a scare in the Champions League on Tuesday, pushing the Reds close in a 2-1 defeat at Anfield.
They have indeed impressed both domestically and on the continent this season and they were unbeaten in 21 matches before their midweek reverse.
They should have too much going forward for Saturday's hosts Strasbourg, who have had a mixed bag of results this term with six wins, six draws and six losses in Ligue 1.
Sunday, 3.15pm
Real Sociedad were overpowered 3-1 by Lazio in the Europa League on Thursday but having Aihen Munoz sent off after 30 minutes did not help and the Serie A club have been Europa League specialists this season.
Upon their return to league action, Real Sociedad should justify favouritism at home to Getafe, who have won just one of their last four matches in LaLiga.
