📋 Team News: Borussia Dortmund
Mateu Morey (Knee Injury), Ole Pohlmann (Infection) and Thomas Meunier (Muscle Injury) won’t be playing for Borussia Dortmund manager Edin Terzić.
In all likelihood, Dortmund will probably opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation this time and select Gregor Kobel, Marius Wolf, Mats Hummels, Nico Schlotterbeck, Julian Ryerson, Emre Can, Felix Nmecha, Donyell Malen, Marco Reus, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens and Niclas Füllkrug.
📰 Team News: Werder Bremen
Werder Bremen boss Ole Werner has to choose a team with limited availability. Amos Pieper (Muscular problems), Niklas Stark (Adductor problems) and Naby Keïta (Muscle Injury) miss out here.
We reckon that Werder seem most likely to make use of a 3-1-4-2 system, choosing Michael Zetterer, Milos Veljkovic, Marco Friedl, Felix Agu, Senne Lynen, Mitchell Weiser, Romano Schmid, Jens Stage, Anthony Jung, Dawid Kownacki and Marvin Ducksch.

At the other end, 1899 Hoffenheim got 10 shots at goal with 4 of them on target. Maximilian Beier (8'), Grischa Prömel (29') and Marius Bülter (92') scored for Hoffenheim.
Illustrating their appetite for productive matches, goals have been celebrated 25 times in the last six matches in which Werder Bremen have taken to the pitch, making it an average of 4.17 goals each fixture. Their opponents have managed 13 of those goals. Such a trend isn’t assured to be sustained into this game, of course.
