Watch Dortmund's tough test on Betfair!
In case you missed the big news last week, the Bundesliga is now available for Betfair customers to watch on Betfair Live Video. It was a fascinating debut too, with Borussia Dortmund extending their lead, Bayern Munich losing again and Bayer Leverkusen and Hannover closing in on second-placed Mainz.
Once again, all nine matches in one of the most competitive leagues in Europe are live this weekend, with perhaps the most intriguing being Saturday's teatime offering between table-topping Borussia Dortmund and gradually improving Werder Bremen.
If you think Werder can build on their 3-0 dismantling of European champions Inter Milan by ending Dortmund's six-match winning run, the hosts are [1.65] to lay, despite the fact their opponents have managed three successive clean sheets since being outclassed by Tottenham.
Prior to that, Hannover are an attractive [2.58] to climb to second by recording their fifth straight victory over poor travellers Stuttgart on Friday night, while Schalke are [2.92] to do them a favour on Sunday by inflicting Mainz's fourth home defeat of the season.
Elsewhere, the Serie A players' strike has been called off, meaning that there are six games to look forward to on Betfair Live Video, with the standout fixture being the clash between Juventus and Lazio - two teams threatening long-awaited title challenges - in Turin.
Both sides head into the encounter as AC Milan's closest challengers and off the back of hugely impressive results - Lazio ripping Inter apart in a 3-1 triumph and Juventus winning by the same margin at Catania - who hadn't lost as hosts in Sicily in 2010.
The likes of Milos Krasic and Fabio Quagliarella for Juventus and Stefano Mauri and Hernanes for the visitors are in fine form and with the Biancocelesti unbeaten in all four of their meetings with top-six rivals to date, we fancy Edy Reja's men to earn a respectable point at [3.55].
Betfair Live Video also have coverage of games from France, Holland, Portugal, Argentina, Belgium, Austria and Australia. Over in Portugal, last year's top two Benfica and Sporting Braga bid to bounce back from disappointment in Europe in the Taca de Portugal. Benfica's underwhelming recent record in a competition they have historically had much success in perhaps lends itself to the lay at [1.6].
