Bundesliga league leaders Wolfsburg will face Greuther Furth on Sunday and will hope to continue their impressive start to the season.

Wolfsburg have won all three of their games so far in the Bundesliga, and their last win against RB Leipzig was the pick of the lot.

Mark van Bommel’s side shut out Leipzig’s impressive attack, and got the job done in the final third to pick up a gritty 1-0 win.

Greuther Furth, on the other hand, have not found it easy after returning to the German top flight.

The newcomers were beaten convincingly by Mainz in their previous game and need to show more mettle against an in-form Wolfsburg side to pick up some positive momentum.


Greuther Furth vs Wolfsburg Head-to-head

Wolfsburg have faced Greuther Furth three times, and are yet to lose to them. The Wolves have won twice and drawn once against Furth.

The two sides last faced off in 2013, a game which Wolfsburg won 1-0. Furth will need their home support more than ever to push their team over the line against an in-form team come Saturday.
