SV Darmstadt 98 will be desperate to win their first league game since returning to the Bundesliga when they host Werder Bremen on Sunday.

The visitors, meanwhile, have won two and lost three of their opening five matches after surviving in their first season back in the top-flight last time out.

We say: SV Darmstadt 98 1-3 Werder Bremen

Despite selling Fullkrug towards the end of the transfer window, Werder Bremen still retain plenty of quality in attacking areas, and we expect them to have a little too much for Darmstadt as a result.

The hosts have conceded 16 goals in five matches and simply do not look capable of keeping clean sheets at this level, so it could be a long and difficult season for them, even if they should show plenty of fight and score a reasonable amount of goals along the way.

Freiburg will be expecting to end a winless run of three league games when they host Augsburg in the Bundesliga on Sunday.

The visitors, meanwhile, gained their first league victory of the season when beating Mainz 05 last time out.

We say: Freiburg 1-0 Augsburg

Freiburg have been far from at their best in recent weeks, while Augsburg will arrive with renewed confidence after picking up their first win of the season in their last match.

However, we expect the hosts to edge to a narrow victory in what is likely to be a tight encounter, with Streich and his players knowing that they can not afford their winless streak to continue much longer if they are to have another successful campaign.
