Team News

Prediction

  • Four-time Bundesliga champions Bremen have not won at home in stark contrast to their strong away record with three wins and 13 goals.
  • Kiel, German champions way back in 1912, avoided shipping at least two goals for the first time this season, and promptly beat Heidenheim to secure their first-ever Bundesliga win.
  • A share of the spoils could be a good shout here in a Northern derby.
