On Saturday, Werder Bremen will host Borussia Dortmund at Weserstadion for a Bundesliga clash. With the season drawing to a close, neither team has much at stake in this final match. Dortmund will maintain their second-place position regardless of the outcome, while Bremen, currently in 15th place, can only move up one spot at best.
Die Grün-Weißen have struggled recently, securing just one win in their last six matches across all competitions. Their latest league game against Hoffenheim ended in a 1-0 away defeat, marking their second consecutive loss.

Die Borussen began the month with a 1-0 away loss to Borussia Monchengladbach but rebounded with a 3-2 home victory against Eintracht Frankfurt last week. Serhou Guirassy and Nico Schlotterbeck scored late in the first half, and Samuele Inacio netted his first goal for the club after the break.
