Borussia Dortmund take on Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Alongside Bayern Munich, BVB are the only other team with a 100% record after two matches, while newly-promoted Bremen are unbeaten with two draws.
We say: Borussia Dortmund 3-1 Werder Bremen
With Fullkrug and Ducksch in such excellent form, we can envisage the visitors scoring, but Dortmund should have too much for them overall.
As last week's victory in Freiburg showed, BVB do not even necessarily need their main cast to fire to record victories, although they should be fired up by the competition for places.

Bayer Leverkusen entertain Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
There is real pressure mounting on the hosts to win this game after losing their first three competitive matches of a season for the first time in the club's history.
We say: Bayer Leverkusen 3-2 Hoffenheim
Goals feel like an absolute given in this game, with both teams generally more comfortable attacking than defending.
As such, predicting a result seems tricky, but Leverkusen's losing run surely has to come to an end sooner or later and we can see them picking up a vital victory on Saturday.

Wolfsburg take on Schalke 04 in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Neither side have managed to bag a win in their opening two matches, with both teams heading into the weekend's encounter with a point apiece.
We say: Wolfsburg 1-1 Schalke 04
We do not envisage a thrilling encounter in Lower Saxony on Saturday, with neither side playing with great confidence at present.
Schalke would likely be content with a draw and, unless Kruse can provide a spark, Wolfsburg may struggle to break them down.

Augsburg host Mainz 05 in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Both teams occupy top-half positions after two matches, with the visitors remaining unbeaten so far.
We say: Augsburg 1-1 Mainz 05
With both teams adopting similar formations, we can envisage a low-scoring, tight encounter in Augsburg on Saturday.
The visitors were involved in a goalless draw last time out and may be content to remain unbeaten, with Augsburg unlikely to push too hard for a winner either.

Stuttgart host Freiburg in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Stuttgart are unbeaten with two draws from their opening two matches, while Freiburg have won one and lost one.
We say: Stuttgart 1-2 Freiburg
We expect a fascinating tactical battle in Stuttgart on Saturday, with both teams capable of counter-attacking in the blink of an eye.
Freiburg are a more consistent collective unit, though, and we expect them to bounce back from their unfortunate defeat to Dortmund with a narrow victory.

Union Berlin take on RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga's Saturday evening kickoff.
Both sides head into the meeting unbeaten after two matches, although the visitors are winless having drawn twice.
We say: Union Berlin 1-1 RB Leipzig
It is hard to split these two teams, with Leipzig obviously possessing superior individual quality, but Union Berlin's counter-attacking style is likely to hurt them.
As such, it would be no surprise to see Leipzig draw a third successive match, with both teams probably content enough with that potential outcome.
