Bundesliga Matchday 30 preview, betting picks & top soccer odds

The Bundesliga title may be out of the picture, but that won’t lessen the level of action expected this weekend. See our free soccer betting picks and predictions for every game in Matchday 30.

Eintracht Frankfurt v FC Augsburg

Friday, April 19 – 8:30pm CET – Commerzbank-Arena

Despite being three points ahead of their weekend opponents, Eintracht Frankfurt have the enormous task of stopping an Augsburg side that has won five of its last seven games. Winless in their last four games, it’s almost certain that the Eagles will have their three-point cushion trimmed by the visitors.

FC Heidenheim v RB Leipzig

Saturday, April 20 – 3:30pm CET – Voith-Arena

With just two wins from their last 13 league games, Heidenheim have endured a poor run in recent weeks. Locked in the bottom half of the table, their situation could move from bad to worse when they welcome a high-flying Leipzig side. The visitors are undefeated in their last six Bundesliga outings, winning five of those, and should score early.

FC Koln v SV Darmstadt

Saturday, April 20 – 3:30pm CET – RheinEnergieStadion

This should be an exciting affair between the two most porous defences in the Bundesliga. Bottom-placed Darmstadt are all but assured of relegation, but 17th-placed Koln are still a chance of avoiding the drop. With so much on the line, expect the home side to give it everything from start to finish.

Hoffenheim v Borussia Monchengladbach

Saturday , April 20 – 3:30pm CET – WIRSOL Rhein-Neckar-Arena

Hoffenheim are three points ahead of Borussia Monchengladbach despite recently dropping 12 points out of a possible 15. ‘Gladbach bring in mixed form but have won each of their last six Bundesliga encounters with Hoffenheim, and they should be confident of adding another as they travel southwest.

Wolfsburg v VfL Bochum

Saturday , April 20 – 3:30pm CET – Volkswagen Arena

A point clear of the relegation zone and a single point behind Wolfsburg, Bochum will be hoping to earn vital points as they look to avoid the drop. It is a similar story for Wolfsburg, who are not yet out of the woods with five games to go. Home advantage could prove crucial in this critical clash between relegation candidates.

Union Berlin v Bayern Munich

Saturday, April 20 – 6:30pm CET – An der Alten Forsterei

Although Bayern Munich have lost the league to Bayer Leverkusen with five games to spare, Thomas Tuchel’s men need to build their confidence back up now that they are in the Champions League semifinals. Who better to count on than English striker Harry Kane, who has netted 32 goals in the Bundesliga this season?

Werder Bremen v VfB Stuttgart

Sunday, April 21 – 3:30pm CET – Weser-Stadion

Werder Bremen have failed to win any of their last seven Bundesliga matches. This is in stark contrast to Stuttgart, who have triumphed in five of their last seven league outings. At opposite ends of the table, this should be a turgid affair motivated by survival and the hope of Champions League football.

Borussia Dortmund v Bayer Leverkusen

Sunday, April 21 – 5:30pm CET – Signal Iduna Park

Newly crowned champions Bayer Leverkusen will be keen to avoid defeat in order to finish the season unbeaten. Borussia Dortmund are level on points with RB Leipzig, who occupy the final Champions League spot, and will be hoping to topple their top-four rivals with a victory against Xabi Alonso’s side — a tough ask.

SC Freiburg v Mainz

Sunday, April 21 – 7:30pm CET – Europa-Park Stadion

Condemned to the relegation zone after a string of poor results, Mainz will be hoping to claw themselves out with a decent result against Freiburg. However, this may be easier said than done, as the visitors haven’t beaten Freiburg in any of their last five meetings.
