Calculator in hand, bundesliga.com examines this weekend's major permutations...

... they beat Borussia Mönchengladbach.

... they draw against Gladbach and Borussia Dortmund fail to beat VfL Wolfsburg.

... they lose to die Fohlen and BVB are beaten by Wolfsburg.

VfL Wolfsburg will avoid relegation if...

... they pick up at least a point against Dortmund. With SV Werder Bremen playing VfB Stuttgart on Monday, 40 points will definitely be enough to secure safety this season.
