Bayern Munich take on Hoffenheim in a potentially pivotal encounter at both ends of the Bundesliga table on Saturday afternoon.
The hosts head into the clash two points clear of Borussia Dortmund at the summit, while Hoffenheim are five points clear of relegation danger.
We say: Bayern Munich 3-1 Hoffenheim
Bayern must wish they were instead facing Hoffenheim this time last month, when their forthcoming opponents had collected only two points from 14 matches, stretching back to a 2-0 defeat to the Bavarians in October.
However, while Matarazzo's side's improved form undoubtedly makes them tricky opposition, Tuchel's side should possess more than enough quality to keep them at arm's length for the most part and remain top of the table with a win.

RB Leipzig can move up to third in the Bundesliga with a victory at home against Augsburg on Saturday.
The visitors, meanwhile, are still not completely assured of their safety as they are only six points above the relegation zone.
We say: RB Leipzig 2-0 Augsburg
Leipzig have performed with far more control in each of their recent victories, with an additional defender at the expense of Silva helping them retain possession to a much higher level.
As such, while Augsburg may be able to hang in the game at the Red Bull Arena on Saturday, we expect the hosts to take a giant step towards securing Champions League football for the fifth successive season with a vital victory.

High-flying Mainz 05 travel to the Rhein-Energie-Stadion to face FC Koln in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
The hosts showed signs of improvements last weekend after a worrying run of form.
We say: FC Koln 0-2 Mainz 05
Despite having a relatively poor record away to Koln, Mainz did beat them 5-0 in the reverse fixture back in October, and are in much better shape.
Koln have struggled to build on good results this season and could come undone again on home soil.

Stuttgart host Borussia Dortmund on Saturday in what could prove to be a potentially pivotal match at both ends of the Bundesliga table.
Stuttgart moved themselves out of the automatic relegation zone with a crucial victory last weekend, while Dortmund maintained the pressure on league leaders Bayern Munich.
We say: Stuttgart 1-2 Borussia Dortmund
Despite fighting against relegation, Stuttgart have very rarely been soundly beaten all season long, and we do not expect that to be any different on Saturday.
However, Dortmund have made a habit of scoring late winners under Terzic throughout the campaign, and we can envisage another one this weekend as they desperately attempt to keep pace with Bayern at the top.

Eintracht Frankfurt will be aiming to end a winless run of six league games when they host Borussia Monchengladbach in the Bundesliga on Saturday evening.
The visitors, meanwhile, have only won once on the road so far during Daniel Farke's debut campaign in charge of the club.
We say: Eintracht Frankfurt 3-1 Borussia Monchengladbach
Given Gladbach's dreadful away form this season, Frankfurt could hardly have asked for an easier home match in order to return to winning ways in the Bundesliga.
Glasner will be keen to build some momentum ahead of their winnable cup semi-final tie away to Stuttgart in early May, as he seeks to win a second trophy in only his second season at the club.
