Team News

Werder Bremen
Hoffenheim
  • Felix Agu has a ligament tear, while ex-Liverpool midfielder Naby Keita is struggling with problems with his adductors. Skipper Marco Friedl has a niggling rib injury, while Niklas Stark missed last weekend through injury but is expected to return.
  • Dennis Geiger has problems with his adductors, while Marco John and Bambasé Conté are both not being rushed back from injury. Pavel Kaderabek (adductors) and Wout Weghorst (thigh) could return to the squad after missing last Friday.

Prediction

  • 6th placed Hoffenheim have the best league record on their travels with three wins out of three, and remain unbeaten in Bremen in eight games, their best ever away Bundesliga record.
  • Bremen are yet to draw this season, while both of their wins have come at home.
  • These two shared 2-1 wins in their meetings last season and a similar result is on the cards with Bremen squeezing home.
