Bundesliga Preview: All 9 Fixtures, Tickets & Match of the Week (6–8 November 2026)

The Rhineland derby between FC Cologne and Bayer Leverkusen tops the bill in the Bundesliga this weekend, with Bayern Munich heading to Mainz and Borussia Dortmund welcoming Bundesliga debutants SV Elversberg to Signal Iduna Park.

Below you'll find all nine Bundesliga fixtures from Friday 6 to Sunday 8 November 2026, each with a short preview, a seating plan where available and a link to tickets, plus our Match of the Week. Ticket-Compare.com is a comparison platform rather than a seller; it gathers listings from pre-vetted resale sites and authorised hospitality partners so you can compare prices and seat areas in one place before clicking through to buy from the site you choose.

Promoted Schalke 04 and SC Paderborn are both in action too. Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund go into the weekend level at the top on 18 points from eight games, both still unbeaten, with Bayern ahead on goal difference.

Hamburger SV vs Borussia Mönchengladbach – Volksparkstadion, Hamburg (Friday 6 November 2026)

Friday night under the lights at the Volksparkstadion opens the round, and Hamburger SV supporters rarely need an excuse to fill the place. Borussia Mönchengladbach travel north with Isac Lidberg likely to lead their attack, offering a central goal threat and a physical presence up front. Terem Moffi should feature for Hamburg, bringing pace and movement to the home side's forward line. Hamburg sit 15th on nine points and Gladbach are bottom with four, so this already matters at the wrong end of the table. Both clubs carry a weight of history that outstrips their recent achievements, and a home win would give the hosts an early lead on the weekend before most of the division has played.

Mainz 05 vs Bayern Munich – MEWA Arena, Mainz (Saturday 7 November 2026)

Bayern Munich visiting the MEWA Arena is the biggest home game of the season for most Mainz supporters, and the hosts have a habit of making life awkward for the record champions in their own ground. Harry Kane and Michael Olise should be involved for Bayern, with Kane providing the main goal threat through the middle and Olise offering creativity from the right flank. Nadiem Amiri is likely to feature for Mainz 05 and will be central to their attempts to build attacks from midfield. Bayern lead the table on goal difference, while Mainz are ninth on ten points. A point for the hosts would feel like a win, while anything less than three would be a setback for the visitors.

For late availability, it's worth a quick look at what's listed for this fixture.

SC Paderborn vs Eintracht Frankfurt – Home Deluxe Arena, Paderborn (Saturday 7 November 2026)

Promoted Paderborn host Eintracht Frankfurt at the compact Home Deluxe Arena, where the crowd sits close to the pitch and newcomers often find the noise a useful ally. Frankfurt are well used to European nights and should have more quality on the ball, with Can Uzun providing creativity from attacking midfield. Steffen Tigges should lead the line for Paderborn, using his physical presence to occupy defenders and provide an outlet for the hosts. Paderborn have made a steady start with nine points from eight games, two behind eighth-placed Frankfurt, and a home result here would be a significant boost for a side trying to settle into the top flight.

RB Leipzig vs Augsburg – Red Bull Arena, Leipzig (Saturday 7 November 2026)

RB Leipzig return to the Red Bull Arena expecting to dictate the tempo against Augsburg, who tend to defend deep and look for set pieces on their travels. Antonio Nusa should provide Leipzig with pace and direct running from wide positions, while Michael Gregoritsch is likely to feature for Augsburg, giving the visitors a physical presence and a target through the middle. Leipzig are fourth on 15 points, six clear of tenth-placed Augsburg, and a home win would keep them among the clubs chasing the Champions League places, while Augsburg will be happy to frustrate and take a point back to Bavaria.

Borussia Dortmund vs SV Elversberg – Signal Iduna Park, Dortmund (Saturday 7 November 2026)

There can be few bigger culture shocks than walking out in front of the Yellow Wall, and that is what awaits promoted SV Elversberg on Saturday. The visitors are playing top-flight football for the first time in their history, and a day out at the Signal Iduna Park is the sort of occasion their supporters will remember for years. Serhou Guirassy and Jobe Bellingham should be involved for Borussia Dortmund, who sit second and will expect to win, but Elversberg have made an impressive start and arrive seventh on 13 points, just five behind their hosts. The visitors will look to keep things tight for as long as possible and make the most of any set-piece chances.

VfB Stuttgart vs Werder Bremen – MHPArena, Stuttgart (Saturday 7 November 2026)

Niclas Füllkrug is back at Werder Bremen, and the striker is likely to feature when the visitors head south to the MHPArena. VfB Stuttgart will want to put their own stamp on a meeting between two clubs with a long history in the top flight, and Deniz Undav should be involved for the hosts as their main source of goals. The Cannstatter Kurve behind the goal is one of the best standing ends in the country, and Bremen arrive fifth on 15 points, six ahead of 11th-placed Stuttgart, so a home win would help the hosts close the gap on the European places.

For late availability, it's worth a quick look at what's listed for this fixture.

Hoffenheim vs Schalke 04 – PreZero Arena, Sinsheim (Sunday 8 November 2026)

Edin Džeko has brought big-game experience to promoted Schalke 04, and the veteran striker is likely to feature when the Royal Blues make the trip to Sinsheim. Schalke's travelling support will make this feel close to a home game in places, and the visitors will want to show they belong back in the top flight. Andrej Kramarić should be involved for Hoffenheim, who will see this as a chance to pick up three points at the PreZero Arena against a newly promoted side. Hoffenheim are 12th with nine points, three ahead of Schalke in 17th.

SC Freiburg vs Union Berlin – Europa-Park Stadion, Freiburg (Sunday 8 November 2026)

SC Freiburg and Union Berlin are two of the Bundesliga's better-organised sides, so Sunday's meeting at the Europa-Park Stadion could be decided by a set piece or a single moment of quality. Vincenzo Grifo should be involved for the hosts and his dead-ball delivery is always a threat, while Rani Khedira is likely to feature in the visitors' midfield. Freiburg go into the game third on 16 points, while Union are 16th with seven. Freiburg's newer ground has kept the sense of closeness that made the old one so tricky for visitors, and Union will need to cope with that atmosphere to take anything back to the capital.

Match of the Week: FC Cologne vs Bayer Leverkusen – RheinEnergieStadion, Cologne (Sunday 8 November 2026)

Our Match of the Week is the Rhineland derby. FC Cologne against Bayer Leverkusen is one of the fixtures that Cologne supporters look for first when the schedule comes out, and the RheinEnergieStadion should be loud from long before kick-off. Leverkusen arrive with the more expensive squad and the greater recent success, but derbies have a habit of levelling things out. Leverkusen sit sixth on 13 points and Cologne 13th on nine, but bragging rights along the Rhine count for plenty on their own.

Patrik Schick should be involved for Leverkusen, while Said El Mala is likely to feature for Cologne and has the pace to unsettle any defence. The south stand is where the most passionate home support gathers, and the RheinEnergieStadion seating plan shows how the four stands sit close to the pitch.

If you've left it late, you'll usually find the clearest picture of what's left by checking Ticket-Compare.com, which shows listings from pre-vetted resale sites and authorised partners side by side before you click through to buy from the marketplace.
