Team News

Wolfsburg
  • Christian Träsch could be an option to replace Fagner at right-back.
  • Vaclav Pilar and Patrick Helmes remain the only injured players.
  • Naldo, Diego and new sporting director Klaus Allofs will return to the club with which they spent a long period of their respective careers.
  • Interim manager Köstner will most likely field an unchanged team again.
Werder Bremen
  • Sebastian Prödl will return to the starting line-up, with Assani Lukimya suspended again.
  • In midfield, manager Schaaf is unlikely to make any changes after playing the same formation for several weeks now.
  • Nils Petersen and Joseph Akpala compete for a spot up front.

Prediction

  • Wolfsburg are back on track after three wins in manager Köstner's first four games. The attack seems to get better in every game and Diego is motivated again and has the ability to decide games like these on his own.
  • Bremen have been in solid form as well in the last few weeks and their new attacking players continue to adapt to each other very well.
  • Expect this to be an open game with several chances for both sides.
Prediction:
