Werder Bremen host Koln at the Weserstadion on Saturday (May 20) in the Bundesliga.
The hosts have struggled recently, finding themselves in the bottom half of the league table, but they remain set to avoid the drop. Bremen lost 2-1 to RB Leipzig last time out. They looked set to be heading towards maximum points before their opponents scored two late goals to secure the win. Bremen are 12th in the standings with 35 points from 32 games.
Koln, meanwhile, are playing well at the moment and are targeting a top-half finish. They thrashed last-placed Hertha Berlin 5-2 in their last league outing. Four players got on the scoresheet, including Timo Hubers, who netted a brace. The visitors are tenth with 41 points.
