Leverkusen on the verge of historic maiden Bundesliga title.
In a clash that could seal their historic first Bundesliga title, table-topping Bayer Leverkusen welcome Werder Bremen to BayArena this Sunday in what promises to be a thrilling encounter at 16:30 GMT+1.
Bayer 04 Leverkusen
Table-topping Bayer Leverkusen are back on domestic soil after Thursday’s 2-0 first-leg win over West Ham in the Europa League quarterfinals. This victory saw Die Werkself extend their unbeaten run to 42 games in a row across all competitions.
Back in the Bundesliga, Leverkusen, who have amassed 76 points, are looking to take one step closer to their maiden Bundesliga title. With 16 points clear at the top of the table and only six games left to play, they are just one win away from securing their first-ever Bundesliga title.
Even if Bayern or Stuttgart draw, a point will suffice for Leverkusen to clinch the title. Additionally, if Bayern are beaten by FC Koln and Stuttgart are defeated by Frankfurt, Leverkusen will be crowned champions regardless of their own result.
Achieving the title this weekend would make Leverkusen the 13th different champion in Bundesliga history. For the weekend’s game against Werder Bremen, a 3—4—2—1 formation with Patrik Schick in attack is expected. Adam Hlozek is the only injury absentee for Leverkusen.
Werder Bremen
SV Werder Bremen are in 12th place on the Bundesliga table, having failed to win any of their last six Bundesliga games. Bremen put a stop to a run of four losses in a row with a 1-1 draw against Frankfurt last weekend, a game that saw both sides finish with ten men.
Jens Stage was sent off for Werder Bremen moments before Tuta, who also received his marching orders with one minute left on the clock, scored for Frankfurt. The visitors have 31 points ahead of this fixture against Bayer Leverkusen.
Bremen, who have 36 goals after 28 Bundesliga games, are looking to climb two places up the table, should intertwined fixtures end up with favorable outcomes. Die Werderaner are poised to appear in the shape of a 3-5-2 with Marvin Ducksch and Nick Woltemade, who will be leaving the club in the summer, in attack.
Ole Werner will be without Anthony Jung, Marco Friedl, and Jens Stage, who are all suspended for the weekend’s game. Justin Njinmah is ruled out via injury, along with four others.
