Bundesliga: The games of the afternoon in the individual tickers

Home	Guest	Score/Ticker
Hertha BSC	Werder Bremen	2:4
VfL Bochum	VfL Wolfsburg	1:5
TSG Hoffenheim	1. FC Cologne	1:3
FSV Mainz 05	FC Bayern Munich	3:1

The most interesting game is probably in Berlin, where Pal Dardai will be making his debut for Hertha for the fourth time (!) and his third as a coach. Of course, only one win against Werder Bremen counts for the 47-year-old successor to Sandro Schwarz.

The same actually applies to VfL Bochum, who can feel VfB Stuttgart breathing down their necks. And Hoffenheim are far from saved, despite their recent successes.

The matchday started on Friday evening with the match between Augsburg and Stuttgart. Thanks to a 1-1 draw, VfB remained undefeated in the third game under Sebastian Hoeneß.
