Team News

RBL
Werder Bremen
  • Dominik Szoboszlai and Amadou Haidara are both available after suspension. Xaver Schlager is nearing a return after recovering from an ankle injury. Goalkeeper Péter Gulácsi is on his way back from an ACL injury, while Josko Gvardiol missed last weekend with a muscle injury, and Konrad Laimer has a toe injury.
  • Bundesliga top scorer Niclas Füllkrug is struggling with a calf problem. Dikeni-Rafid Salifou is ruled out with a foot injury and Felix Agu needs an op on a nagging patella tendon injury.
  • Amos Pieper needs an ankle operation and will miss the rest of the campaign.

Prediction

  • Decent on home soil with 11 wins, Leipzig have kept two consecutive clean sheets for the first time this season to move into third spot.
  • Promoted Bremen have only picked up a single victory in their last nine Bundesliga games and need another win to secure their top-flight status.
  • Leipzig have won the last five meetings with Bremen and can comfortably claim the three points to boost their Champions League qualification quest in a goal-rich affair.
