Full-time: Stuttgart 1-1 Union Berlin

These two sides couldn't be separated this afternoon, in what was an entertaining contest. Stuttgart started the second half strongly and soon got their reward for their attacking efforts through Führich's brilliant opener. Union were never really out of it, however, and showed time and again they could penetrate the Stuttgart backline. The hosts could find neither a second goal nor the answer to keeping the capital club quiet, and conceded a late equaliser from Jeong despite having looked the better side for much of the half.

Full-time: Leipzig 1-5 Bayern

It's fair to say we're witnessing something very special with this Bayern team. A goal down at the break, they roared back to thump Leipzig 5-1 and restore their 11-point lead at the top of the Bundesliga whilst extending their unbeaten start to 18 matches. As for Leipzig, they learn the hard way that you simply have to take your chances against the defending champions. Ole Werner's men slip to fourth as a result.

Full-time: Hamburg 0-0 Gladbach

It ends goalless as neither side can find the breakthrough. Hamburg had plenty of chances in the first half, but each time they had the opportunity, they only found the gloves of Nicolas. The second half was far more even, but with both teams struggling to create.

Full-time: Hoffenheim 1-0 Bayer Leverkusen

The hosts register a sixth consecutive home Bundesliga victory with a well-earned triumph over the Werkself. They scored the only goal of the game inside the opening 10 minutes through Wouter Burger's free-kick, and they were the better team throughout - had Mark Flekken, then replacement Janis Blaswich, not made several saves, the margin of victory would have been greater.

Bell's opener was the Mainz defender's first Bundesliga goal since May 2022.

Half-time: Hamburg 0-0 Gladbach

Hamburg should be out of sight, and yet the game is still 0-0 at the break. The hosts have already had 16 shots in the first half, and Gladbach just the one. Capaldo, Muheim and Downs have all seen opportunities come and go. Could they be made to regret that after the break?

Half-time: Hoffenheim 1-0 Leverkusen

The hosts continue their impressive form as they lead at the break. They were the better side throughout the opening 45 minutes, and took the lead through Wouter Burger's free-kick. The visitors, meanwhile, offered very little in the final third, and must improve after the break if they are to get anything from this one.

Half-time: Wolfsburg 0-1 Heidenheim

The Wolves dominated the early exchanges, but it's Heidenheim who hold a one-goal lead at the break, after Beck made the breakthrough in first-half injury time. Wolfsburg will likely need to battle hard for a leveller in the second half.

Half-time: Dortmund 1-0 St. Pauli

Julian Brandt's stoppage-time goal sends Dortmund in at the break with a slender lead. It'll be a tough one to take for Pauli, who switched off defensively at the worst possible time. Until then, they'd given very little away whilst creating a couple of half chances of their own.

1 - 0

Half-time

Half-time: Cologne 0-1 Mainz

Bell's rocket remains the difference at the break as Mainz head into the dressing rooms one goal to the good over Cologne. It's no less than the 05ers deserve, with Potulski having hit the woodwork prior to the opener, and failing to double their lead minutes later through Silas. Lukas Kwasniok will need much more from his side in the second half if they're to end their run of eight Bundesliga games without a win.

So harsh on Pauli, but it's a great goal by Dortmund. Adeyemi's the architect as he drives past Ritzka and whips a low cross into the six-yard box. Silva misses it at the front post, but so do all the white shirts and there's Brandt to side-foot home from close range.

There's the opener!

Heidenheim had crept more and more into the match, and now they have a crucial goal! It's Beck who gets it, pouncing on a chance in the box to fire the away side into a useful lead.

0:25

Feisty

Adeyemi's next into the book for a late challenge on Mets. The Pauli man returns the favour moments later, but escapes a booking.

Off the line!

Schwäbe has to come off his line to head clear a ball over the top to Nebel. His header lands at the feet of Silas, who attempts a chip from distance, but Jóhannesson is back to clear the attempt off the line!

38'

Better!

Can injects a bit of urgency into proceedings with a powerful forward run and inside pass to Brandt. He helps it on for Svensson, whose low cross is put behind for a corner. Schlotterbeck meets Ryerson's delivery, but his header is straight into the back of a Pauli defender.

Denied

Prass shoots first time from the edge of the area, but Flekken pushes away to safety. He had to be alert, but it was at a good height for him.

0:28

Silas clean through

Mainz win the ball back in the midfield and instantly look to counter. Silas is played in behind the Cologne backline by Tietz, but loses out in the one-on-one with Schwäbe. What a chance that was for Mainz to double their advantage!

0:25

Best chance so far!

Out of nowhere, the away side create the best opportunity of the game so far: Honsak breaks clear and tries to go round Grabara, but the Wolfsburg 'keeper stays big and makes an excellent save!

30'

Yikes!

Nervy moment as Vasilj miscontrols a back-pass from Wahl before clearing, with Adeyemi in hot pursuit. He's lucky the flight path of the ball took him away from his goal!

Bell smashes Mainz in front!

The veteran Mainz defender has broken the deadlock here! Da Costa finds him with a low cross from the right. Bell makes space for a shot with his first touch, before blasting the ball past Schwäbe and in off the crossbar. He hasn't struck many sweeter than that in his time.

0:20

Gladbach show the risk of not taking chances

Now Gladbach come forward for the first time. Honorat sends in a good delivery to the back post that is controlled and hit by Tabaković, but his effort misses the target from a good position. That's a warning for Hamburg.

Kobel made to work

A ball's played in to the near post for Perreira Lage, but Kobel makes himself big to block the shot, which lacked any real power. Encouraging from the visitors!

Good footwork, good chance

Vieira creates space with some good footwork. Remberg then lets fly from the edge of the box with Nicolas equal to the effort. Hamburg then recycle the ball, and Capaldo gets into the box before finding Muheim. He shoots with his right, but gets the effort all wrong.

26'

Almost!

Brandt goes up and over the Pauli wall but with Vasilj rooted to the spot the ball goes fractionally wide of the upright.

Set-piece alert

Sands brings down Brandt in the 'D'. It's a very presentable opening for the BVB No.10 - one that all came about following a quite brilliant flick from Silva...

0:27

Majer goes close again

Majer gets sight of goal once more, but this time he fires the ball over the top from Eriksen into the side netting. That was a great chance!

19'

How are Hamburg not in front?

Downs feeds the onrushing Capaldo in the box, but his powerful strike is straight at Nicolas. Jatta then gets his head on a backpost cross, and again Nicolas makes the save.

0:27

Off the post!

Nebel delivers the free-kick. Cologne win the initial header, but Mainz pounce on the second ball, working it to the right flank. Sano cuts it back to Widmer, who flicks it on to Potulski. The young defender stabs at the ball at the six-yard box, guiding it onto the near post before Schwäbe pounces on the rebound.

No hands

Schlotterbeck concedes a free-kick for a fierce challenge on Pyrka. Kaars goes for a first-time attempt from the ensuing cross, with the ball striking Silva. The referee initially points to the spot, before changing his mind upon VAR review. That clearly struck the BVB forward in the midriff.

Nicely worked chance for Majer

Wolfsburg move forward through Wimmer, who sets up Majer for a shooting opportunity. Unfortunately for the home side, the attacking midfielder doesn't set himself right and hits the ball high and wide.

0:21

And there's the chance!

Vasilj punches a Ryerson cross out to Brandt, who shows great technique to wrap his right foot around the bouncing ball, but Hauke Wahl is able to hook it away in front of the goal-line.

So close again

Hamburg move the ball nicely down the left. Torunarigha finds himself in space, and he feeds Vieira in the box. He tries to whip the ball across goal towards Königsdörffer, but Nicolas gets a vital touch to divert the ball away.

Hoffenheim lead!

It is a lovely free-kick from Burger, whose inswinging set-piece from a tight angle evades everyone, including Mark Flekken, as it finds the top corner. The hosts have been the better team so far, and have the lead with their first shot on target.

Hamburg should lead

Königsdörffer pounces on a mistake from Diks and shoots. Nicolas palms it away weakly into the path of Downs, but he slips at the vital moment with the goal begging. Dompé rushes onto the loose ball and shoots, but he can only hit the side netting.

Danger!

Schlotterbeck flicks on a long throw from Ryerson, but Fujita reacts quickest to clear before Silva can pounce.
