Team News

Werder Bremen
RBL
  • Milos Veljkovic and Sebastian Langkamp compete for a spot at centre-back.
  • Davy Klaassen returns from a one-match ban to start in central midfield.
  • Johannes Eggestein could get another chance up front, if Max Kruse does not recover from a thigh injury in time.
  • Manager Ralf Rangnick could also switch to a back-three, with Nordi Mukiele starting as a third centre-back.
  • Amadou Haidara, Tyler Adams and Konrad Laimer offer further options in central midfield.
  • It remains to be seen if manager Ralf Rangnick rotates more ahead of the DFB-Pokal final against Bayern next weekend.

Prediction

  • Bremen must win this game and hope for both Hoffenheim and Wolfsburg to drop points to still claim a Europa League spot. They will hope for captain Max Kruse to recover from injury in time to improve their chances here.
  • Leipzig will finish third in any case after a 0-0 draw with Bayern last weekend. They can focus on the cup final against the Bavarians now, but will look to gain further confidence with a positive display here.
  • Expect this to be an intense game with several chance at both ends of the pitch.
