Sunday’s\u00a0Bundesliga<\/a><\/strong> action could finally be the day that the title is won by Bayern Munich<\/a>, but they must at least avoid defeat against Stuttgart<\/a> at 4:30PM in order to be crowned champions.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Heidenheim<\/a> would almost certainly be condemned to a placement in the bottom three if they lose against hosts Freiburg<\/a> at 2:30PM.<\/p>\n

Borussia Monchengladbach<\/a> will be playing at 6:30PM, and they could take a huge step towards survival by beating Mainz 05<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here,\u00a0Sports Mole<\/strong>\u00a0provides predictions and previews for all of Sunday’s Bundesliga fixtures.<\/p>\n

Freiburg vs. Heidenheim<\/a>\u00a0(Sunday, 2:30pm)<\/h2>\n

Desperate to avoid being cut adrift in the\u00a0Bundesliga, bottom-of-the-table\u00a0Heidenheim\u00a0will travel to face in-form\u00a0Freiburg\u00a0at Europa-Park Stadion on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Die\u00a0Breisgau-Brasilianer could make it four wins on the bounce this weekend, while FCH could secure back-to-back victories for the first time in 2026.<\/p>\n

We say: Freiburg 1-2 Heidenheim<\/h2>\n

Freiburg are in strong form overall, but their league record remains lacklustre, and they may be caught out by a determined opponent this weekend.<\/p>\n

Heidenheim have struggled in 2025-26, though they have shown signs of a resurgence in recent weeks, and could record a shocking win on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Bayern Munich vs. Stuttgart<\/a>\u00a0(Sunday, 4:30pm)<\/h2>\n

Bayern Munich\u00a0could effectively clinch the\u00a0Bundesliga\u00a0title with a victory against\u00a0Stuttgart\u00a0on Sunday at Allianz Arena.<\/p>\n

The Bavarians lead the way at the top of the table with 76 points, and they are 12 ahead of second-placed Borussia Dortmund with five games left to play, though third-placed Stuttgart have 56 points and will be fighting for a place in the Champions League.<\/p>\n

We say: Bayern Munich 3-1 Stuttgart<\/h2>\n

Bayern should be expected to comfortably see past Stuttgart given the inconsistencies of their opponents.<\/p>\n

The Bavarians’ outstanding form in front of goal should be enough to get the better of the visitors, especially as the away side are lacking firepower themselves.<\/p>\n

Borussia Monchengladbach vs. Mainz 05<\/a>\u00a0(Sunday, 6:30pm)<\/h2>\n
\n

Sunday night entertainment in the Bundesliga comes from Borussia Park as\u00a0Borussia Monchengladbach\u00a0look to complete a season double over\u00a0Mainz 05.<\/p>\n

The hosts still need one or two big results to secure their\u00a0Bundesliga status\u00a0for next season, while Die Nulfunfer are simply looking to shake off a painful European exit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

We say: Borussia Monchengladbach 1-1 Mainz 05<\/h2>\n

Borussia Monchengladbach have performed well at home, and we expect them to get at least a point out of Sunday\u2019s match.<\/p>\n

Mainz have significantly improved under the stewardship of Urs Fischer, but Thursday\u2019s European defeat will have taken a lot out of them – both physically and emotionally.<\/p>\n
