SV Werder face 1. FC Köln in their final home match of the season on Saturday (15th May, 15:30 CEST). Whilst the guests have already confirmed their place in the Bundesliga next season, SVW want to make sure of their top-flight status with a win at the wohninvest WESERSTADION. “We’ve been focusing on a win and assuring survival this week,” said head coach Ole Werner at his pre-match press conference on Friday.

VfL Bochum 1848 used the international break for a friendly. Second division side Fortuna Düsseldorf were the guests on the training pitches at Castroper Straße. Head coach Thomas Reis rotated his squad to spread out game time. A total of 16 Bochum players were used. Among them were players from our academy: Mohammed Tolba, Leon Tasov and Verthomy Boboy all played against Fortuna. In an even match, VfL ultimately fell to a 0-2 defeat.

Yup, that is exactly what we have and when Bayern Munich and Union Berlin square off this weekend, two of the three league leaders will do battle in a match that will have major championship implications.

“Dennis is a textbook example of the Hoffenheim way. As a child of the region who came through the ranks in our academy, he stands for identification, passion and loyalty. His contract extension is a show of trust from both sides that is definitely not an everyday occurrence in this business,” said TSG director of football Alexander Rosen. “It brings great joy to see him consistently on the pitch this season after several health setbacks in the past. With his strong mindedness and tough tackling in addition to his great footballing qualities, he has increasingly developed into a leading player in our team recently. We’re delighted that Dennis has committed himself to his TSG, even at this challenging time.”

RB Leipzig players and staff talk about the 3-1 win away against FC Bayern.

The schedule for matchdays 17 to 19 has been confirmed by the DFL.

The Wolves have had to pay a high price for their draw against Bayer 04 Leverkusen on Sunday evening, with injuries to two players. Comprehensive examinations on Monday revealed that Paulo Otavio, who was substituted off in the 54th minute, suffered a serious injury to his left ankle and will be out for an indefinite period of time. 

“I’ve congratulated the lads. You have to take your hat off to them. We’ve managed to reach the last eight for the second time in a row. The club has never managed that, and that makes us proud,” said coach Mike Tullberg, reflecting positively on the Youth League campaign. You simply cannot always win a penalty thriller – as was the case away to Manchester United last year or recently in the round of 16 against Paris Saint-Germain.

The 2022/23 Bundesliga season is well and truly on the final straight. SV Werder’s final home game of the season is on Saturday, 20th May against 1. FC Köln (15:30 CEST), and Ole Werner’s side are looking to make a decisive step towards their pre-season goal of staying up. “It’s getting a bit tense, as it usually does during the run-in. It’s the final few metres of the race which always brings a certain element of tension,” revealed Werner at his pre-match press conference.
