An imperious Bayer Leverkusen side return to action with an away trip to the Weserstadion to face Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga on Saturday.
Xabi Alonso's side signed off for the international break with yet another win to maintain their place at the top of the table after 11 matches.
Chasing a first-ever Bundesliga title, Leverkusen have made their best start to a top-flight season, winning 10 from 11 games, with the only blemish being a still-impressive 2-2 draw away to Bayern Munich.
Across all competitions, Alonso's men have been exceptional, winning all four Europa League games and their DFB-Pokal fixture with Sandhausen earlier this month too, netting 51 goals in their 16 matches this season.
Despite the remarkable start though, Leverkusen still only find themselves two points ahead of a Bayern side who are also unbeaten, knowing any slip-up will likely see them slip to second.
