RB Leipzig seeking ambitious third-place finish as Bremen visits.
In a crucial Bundesliga clash, RB Leipzig, eager to reclaim their winning form and secure a third-place finish, host an in-form Werder Bremen, aiming to extend their three-game unbeaten run, this Saturday at Red Bull Arena.
RB Leipzig
Leipzig are coming into this game after a 1-1 draw against Hoffenheim, which ended their four-game winning streak in the league. A late header from Andrej Kramarić prevented ten-man Leipzig from extending their run, equalizing in the final minute after Benjamin Šeško's goal.
The Red Bulls currently sit in 4th place on the Bundesliga table with 63 points. They have secured a Champions League spot and are now ambitiously eyeing a third-place finish, with Stuttgart just four points ahead with two games left to play.
Marco Rose’s men are unbeaten in their last nine Bundesliga matches and aim to maintain this streak. Leipzig enjoys a superior head-to-head record against their upcoming opponent, having won 69% of their encounters.
The team also boasts a strong home record, winning five of their last six league games while conceding just one goal. They hope these factors work in their favor against Werder Bremen on Saturday.
Despite their strengths, the reverse fixture with Bremen ended in a 1-1 draw last December. Leipzig could potentially face a situation where they go two Bundesliga games without a win against Bremen.
For this match, Marco Rose is likely to stick with the familiar 4-4-2 formation, featuring Yussuf Poulsen and Loïs Openda in attack. However, Xavi Simons will be unavailable due to suspension after being sent off in the last match.
Werder Bremen
Werder Bremen, who are in 11th place on the Bundesliga table with 38 points (10W, 8D, and 14L), are coming into this game off an intriguing 2-2 draw against Borussia Mönchengladbach. The draw extended their unbeaten run in the league to three games (DLWWD).
They make the trip to the Red Bull Arena on Saturday, hoping to extend the three-game unbeaten streak to four, a feat they have achieved only once since 2021. A win in this fixture would see them move up the table, should favorable outcomes emerge elsewhere.
Ole Werner is expected to keep the familiar 3—4—2—1 formation, with last weekend’s hero, Nick Woltemade, who bagged a brace against Gladbach (45’ and 65’), leading the attack. Meanwhile, Naby Keïta remains suspended by the club for the rest of the season due to disciplinary reasons.
