Leipzig will look to place an early marker in this matchday when they travel to the struggling Werder Bremen. This Bundesliga game will be played at the Weser Stadium in Bremen on Tuesday. The hosts are 14th in the standings with 15 points and are five points above the bottom-three. The visitors are 3rd with 32 points which could change depending on the result between Bayern Munich vs Stuttgart. Bremen drew 2-2 with Borussia Monchengladbach in their last league match, which was a positive result making it four points across two games. They have in fact, picked up nine points from their last seven league games. It does put some strain in their season that Bremen are only five points above the relegation zone, although there’s no imminent threat of drop. If anything, their home form is what could drive their safety as Bremen have won 13 points from their last seven home league games.

Leipzig are in better form, to say the least, as they are coming off a 3-1 win over Hoffenheim. That victory made it three in a row for the visitors. Going slightly back in time, Leipzig have six wins across their last eight Bundesliga matches. The only defeats in this sequence have come against Mainz and Wolfsburg. They have been impressing at both ends of the pitch, with their 37 goals scored and 16 goals conceded, the third-best on both counts. That could set Leipzig up for goals in this match although they may keep the goals conceded to a minimum. On the results front though, it’s not a foregone conclusion as Leipzig have lost two of their last three away from home although they won four of the last six on the road in the league.
