In goal, we have Oliver Baumann, who made a string of crucial saves to help Freiburg to a 0-0 draw on a tricky trip to Mainz.
In front of him stands one of his team-mates, Pavel Krmas, who forms a back three along with Sebastian Boenisch, who got the ball rolling for Leverkusen against Frankfurt, and Mats Hummels, who put in another fine performance in BVB's rout at the Weserstadion.
All four of the midfielders were on target this weekend. Lewis Holtby signalled his ongoing commitment to Schalke with two assists and a goal, Mario Gotze added to Marco Reus' opener for Dortmund, and Diego's strike helped Wolfsburg to their second home win of the season.
Fortuna Dusseldorf may have lost to Augsburg, but Stefan Reisinger almost snatched a point single-handedly with two second-half goals, Stefan Kiessling solidified his case for a Germany call-up with another goal, and Sascha Molders helped Markus Weinzierl's side to three vital points.
