The wohninvest WESERSTADION is the venue for Friday night’s clash in the Bundesliga between Werder Bremen and Eintracht Frankfurt with both teams searching for a valuable three points at either end of the German top flight table.
Werder Bremen head into this important encounter having managed to pick up just three wins out of their last 18 matches overall which came in the shape of victories against Mainz, Augsburg and Hertha Berlin, but their successes have been few and far between.
The hosts have lost seven and drawn eight out of these last 18 matches so the hosts will have to pull something pretty special out of the proverbial hat if they’re to grab all three points on Friday night despite holding home advantage.
Werder Bremen have won just twice this season at their wohninvest WESERSTADION while the bigger picture has produced just three wins from their last 25 matches and a resounding 4-0 loss at Hoffenheim on the weekend will have done little for their confidence.
Defender Augustinsson and midfielder Erras look set to miss out through injury.
By contrast, Eintracht Frankfurt will be bringing an impressive five-match winning streak into this clash which has helped lift the visitors up into the top four of the Bundesliga having recorded wins against Arminia Bielefeld, Hertha Berlin, Hoffenheim, Koln and most impressive of all, a 2-1 home win against the league leaders, Bayern Munich.
Indeed, Eintracht Frankfurt are now unbeaten in their last 11 matches of which nine have resulted in victories for the Frankfurt outfit, so confidence will be high amongst the visitors’ camp as they go in search of a sixth league win on the trot.
Eintracht Frankfurt have also picked up four wins out of their last five matches on their travels as well with the visitors scoring a total of 14 goals in the process and conceding just four in reply during this recent five-game sequence on the road.
Eintracht Frankfurt’s successful campaign this season has been underpinned y the exploits of prolific goalscorer, Andre Silva (18 goals) who has helped fire the visitors up into contention for one of the Champions League spots for next season.
Defender N’Dicka looks to be the only absentee for Eintracht Frankfurt here.

Eintracht Frankfurt therefore look likely to secure the points on Friday night.
