THE PREDICTION
After bowing out of the Champions League at the hands of Manchester City in midweek, Borussia Dortmund’s aim is now to qualify for next season’s competition, but they have just six games left to overturn a seven-point gap to fourth-placed Eintracht Frankfurt. The Black and Yellows have been up and down in the Bundesliga lately and have been all season, in fact, although they have only lost one of their last seven home league games. Werder Bremen could also do with the points as they are not completely safe yet following four successive defeats in the league, albeit against tough opponents. They could well be in for another loss here against a side who they have beaten once in their last 12 Bundesliga meetings. Florian Kohfeldt’s men have only failed to score in one of their last seven games, though, and as Dortmund have registered just one clean sheet in their last eight in all competitions, consider the option of match result and both teams to score.
