Bremen welcomes Leverkusen: the battle for table honors begins!
The tension is palpable again in the Weserstadion today as SV Werder Bremen welcomes Bayer 04 Leverkusen. The game starts at 3:30 p.m. and promises a lot of entertainment. Referee Robin Braun will send the players onto the pitch and the signs point to tension and enthusiasm for both teams.
Before we turn to what's happening on the pitch, let's take a look at the last duels between the two teams: In the last ten Bundesliga games, Werder has only won once (5 draws, 4 defeats). However, Bremen won impressively 2-0 in their last meeting in March, which is why fans are hoping for a repeat of that success today. Leverkusen, on the other hand, has a modest away win rate of just 20% in Bremen, the second lowest in the league.
Current form and records
Bremen have gone through their last four Bundesliga home games unbeaten, with two wins and two draws. The best thing about it: They didn't concede a single goal in these games! Another clean sheet would equal the club record from spring 1993 - so there's a lot at stake!
On the other hand, Leverkusen has a current streak of 34 unbeaten Bundesliga away games, which is impressive with 23 wins and 11 draws. Their last defeat in Bremen was back in October 2016. Nevertheless, coach Erik ten Hag had a less than pleasant start to the season: his team lost the first game against Hoffenheim 1-2.
Personnel changes and players in focus
An interesting aspect is the line-up: Werder Bremen can rely on the new Japanese international Yukinari Sugawara, who was signed by FC Southampton. Justin Njinmah also showed great performances by scoring his tenth Bundesliga goal in the last meeting in March. Njinmah will be a player to watch out for against Leverkusen as he leads the scoring against Leverkusen.
Leverkusen also have new faces to offer: Lucas Vázquez has been signed and has a contract until 2027. Alejandro Grimaldo has already collected 21 assists in the Bundesliga and is just behind Florian Wirtz, who has 23 assists. It remains to be seen whether Sugawara and Vázquez can set the decisive tone today.
Broadcast details and live updates
There is good news for all those who cannot watch the game in the stadium: the game will be broadcast live on Sky on TV and in the stream. DAZN also offers a conference broadcast, while SPORT1 has a live ticker so you don't miss any important events.
The meeting between Bremen and Leverkusen promises not only top sporting performances, but also a thrilling atmosphere. The fans can look forward to seeing how the teams perform on the pitch - perhaps one or two fans will get a surprise!
