Werder Bremen will host Eintracht Frankfurt at the Weserstadion on Saturday in another round of the 2024-25 Bundesliga campaign. The home side have had their struggles this season but remain hopeful of a top-half league finish as they sit 12th in the table with 36 points from 27 matches.
They beat Holstein Kiel 3-0 in their last match, with Marvin Ducksch opening the scoring midway through the first half before Felix Agu and Marco Grull joined the talisman on the scoresheet in the second.
Eintracht Frankfurt, meanwhile, have impressed all season and are now pushing for a return to the UEFA Champions League. Like their weekend opponents, Frankfurt marked their return to action after the international break with a win, beating 10-man Stuttgart 1-0 with Mario Gotze scoring the sole goal of the game in the 70th minute to register his first league strike since last November.
The visitors have now climbed up to third in the Bundesliga with 48 points from 27 matches and will be looking to add to that tally this weekend.
