Bundesliga-Live Ticker for Matchday 7

Full-time: Wolfsburg 2-4 Werder Bremen

The home side started well and went ahead through Tiago Tomás, in a half where the opposition struggled to create anything of note. That was until Ducksch found Weiser for a brilliant equaliser not long before half-time. Bremen started the second-half as they ended the first, on the front foot, and soon found themselves ahead through Agu. Wolfsburg then capitulated by conceding two and going down to ten men, before pulling a late goal back through Maehle.

The home side have been the better going forward, creating more opportunites and spending more time in the final third. They couldn't make the most of it, however, and allowed Werder back into the game moments before the whistle blew for the break.

Ducksch peels out wide before bending a brilliant cross into the near post for the onrushing Weiser to slam home.

Full-time: Leverkusen 2-1 Frankfurt

Leverkusen get there in the end thanks to a strong second-half performance but Frankfurt will feel like this is a missed opportunity. Boniface missed an early penalty before Marmoush converted his own at the other end. Andrich then pulled the Werkself level at the break and Boniface completed the turnaround in the second-half. That could be a significant three points gained come the end of season.

Full-time: Freiburg 3-1 Augsburg

Julian Schuster continues his run with the best-ever start for a Freiburg head coach as his team equal their best-ever start after seven games to move second in the Bundesliga. It was a controlled and clever performance from the hosts, with Augsburg trying plenty of different tactics throughout, but they never really looked dangerous outside of six minutes of second-half drama.

Full-time: Mainz 0-2 Leipzig

There wasn't much to separate the two sides today, but it was Leipzig who continued their unbeaten run with a 2-0 win against Bo Henriksen's side. Xavi Simons opened the scoring in spectacular style, before the experienced Willi Orbán gave his side some breathing space with the second. Mainz certainly could have come away with something on another today, but were lacking that final pass this afternoon.

Hoffenheim claim a precious second win of the season and, given their dominance and far greater number of chances, it's a deserved one. But it wasn't without its nervy moments, Baumann's penalty save putting paid to Bochum's fight-back and paving the way for a more flattering scoreline.

Half-time: Leverkusen 1-1 Frankfurt

It's honours even at the break, much to the frustration of Leverkusen coach Alonso, who saw Boniface miss an early penalty before Marmoush converted from the spot to put Eintracht ahead. Andrich's superb effort pulled Leverkusen level before Ekitiké then had a goal ruled out. It was open, exciting and everything we hoped for. A great half of football.

Half-time: Borussia Mönchengladbach 1-1 Heidenheim

All square at the break! The Foals were the more dangerous of the two teams, but fell behind to Léo Scienza's close-range opener on the rebound before Kō Itakura equalised midway through the half. The hosts looked the more likely of the two teams to score a second, so they will be eager to make their superiority count after the interval.

Half-time: Hoffenheim 1-0 Bochum

Hoffenheim's possession and pressure paid off with Kramarić's opener, but they failed to make the most of a number of big chances and, with Miyoshi leading some credible Bochum attacks late in the half, the hosts could regret not killing the match off.

Half-time: Freiburg 3-0 Augsburg

It was a slow burner to start but once Freiburg got going they've been unstoppable. Augsburg will have been fearing Grifo pre-match and he's been the whole show since the 34th minute. Unless the away side come up with something special, Freiburg are well on course to match their best-ever Bundesliga start.

The Freiburg captain had already tried his luck from range and this time he finds the target. Dōan picks him out on the left, and this time he goes far post, blasting the ball across the goal and into the bottom corner past a helpless Labrović.

Marmoush puts Eintracht ahead

Marmoush makes no mistake from the penalty spot, thrashing it low into the bottom corner. This was billed as a battle between Boniface and Marmoush before kick-off and it's the latter who's come out on top so far.

Off the post!

Eintracht have responded superbly since the penalty miss and the in-form Marmoush lashes one from outside the box which beats Hradecký but rattles the left-hand post and rebounds to safety. That would have been a screamer.

Heidenheim in front!

The visitors have the advantage! Schöppner's shot does have too much pace on it, but Nicolas can only push it into the path of Scienza, who buries on the rebound.

Leverkusen have the first effort on goal and we know Xhaka can hit them from here but his curling effort from distance sails over the bar. Bright start from the home side.

Scene is set in Leverkusen

The BayArena looks glorious, bathed in Autumnal sunshine ahead of today's meeting between hosts Leverkusen and visitors Frankfurt. It should be a cracker of a fixture and we'll have teams news dropping shortly.

Dino Toppmöller on facing Leverkusen:

"We have weapons to hurt the opponents, but at the same time we know how hard it is against Bayer Leverkusen. They play incredibly good football. It's always nice to be able to test ourselves against the very top teams."

Xabi Alonso on facing Eintracht

"Frankfurt are in great form and are a good opponent. It's important not to forget what we have done well or badly in the past. We know what happened against Kiel and we don't want that to happen again. We will need our best performance"

Marco Rose on facing Mainz

"Mainz have caused us problems on numerous occasions in recent years, but we're going there tomorrow to win the game. Mainz have developed as a team and have strengthened in several positions after some departures. Amiri is a key player for them. Their strengths are their unity, compactness and stability, plus they are good from counter-attacks. We will need a good performance in order to win tomorrow."

Bo Henriksen on facing Leipzig

"We have to be brave with the ball and without the ball, defend well and be aggressive. If we are aggressive, it will be an open game. If we are just passive, it will be difficult."

Vincent Kompany on facing Stuttgart

"Stuttgart have shown what they're capable of. When you look at their games, they always want to play their way. They always apply a lot of pressure and want to play their way through. They're a good team. They've done very good work in recent years. Their players have grown. It's good for us that we get to play against teams like them."

Sebastian Hoeneß on facing Bayern

"They're back to their old strength, playing with high intensity and running a lot, even though they have the most possession in the league. Bayern have an outstanding squad but we want to try to take our chances and make it a more open game than last year there."

Jess Thorup on facing Freiburg

"We are going to Freiburg to take three points if we can. Freiburg have made a very strong start under their new coach. We will therefore have to put in a top performance."

Julian Schuster on facing Augsburg

"The team really stuck by one another in Bremen. We will need this determination and alertness on Saturday too. Augsburg offer physical prowess, but also have the ability in the final third to create chances."

Gerardo Seoane on facing Heidenheim

"We've been very critical of ourselves. We know the mistakes we made in the last game and have worked on them in the break. Now it's about showing improvement in those areas."

Peter Zeidler on facing Hoffenheim

"Hoffenheim is a young and talented team that also plays in Europe. Of course we watched our opponents closely. I can say clearly - we are going there to get something. Not only am I convinced of that, but the team is too!"

Pellegrino Matarazzo on facing Bochum

"Bochum are a team that generally press high. They are very dangerous due to the numbers they get in the box. It's obvious that it is an important match. We showed before the international break that we have developed. Now we have to deliver. We want three points. An important point for an intense match tomorrow is to take risks."

Frank Schmidt on facing Gladbach

"They will try to put us under pressure from the first minute in order to take the lead as quickly as possible and get the supporters right behind them. They always try to move forward through variable positional play and possession of the ball. All of this entails risks, and also opportunities for us - especially if we defend well."

Bo Svensson on facing Kiel

“It's always tough to start with an away game after an international break. Kiel went into the break with a sense of achievement after the game in Leverkusen. It's going to be a difficult task. Our games have all been close, no matter who the opponent. We have to bring our principles onto the pitch and take Kiel very seriously.”

Marcel Rapp on facing Union

"We fought hard for an hour [in the 2-2 draw] against Leverkusen and played really good football [in the midweek, 5-0 friendly win] against Silkeborg. We will need this mix at the weekend."

Ralph Hasenhüttl on facing Werder

"We are facing opponents who have good qualities in the transition. It's no surprise that they regularly score in away games. They are a team that find solutions and can link up well through good passing and movement."

Ole Werner on facing Wolfsburg

“It will be a hectic game, we have to accept that. Wolfsburg look for the direct path towards goal. However, the same approach always applies to our set-up: to look for and to find solutions for all phases of the match.”

Nuri Şahin on facing St. Pauli

“My full focus is on the home game against St. Pauli [rather than facing Real Madrid on Tuesday]. The magic of this stadium is even more different under floodlights. It's something very special. As a player, I loved playing in the evening. I have the same feeling with the boys now."

Alexander Blessin on facing Dortmund

"These are the games we got promoted to the Bundesliga for. The lads earned themselves the right to play in front of the Yellow Wall over the course of last season. It being a Friday night game is obviously a highlight. We're looking forward to genuine top-class opposition. You need to be at your best to get anything at Dortmund."
