Werder Bremen challenges Gladbach: The fight for the first win of the season begins!

An exciting duel is on the agenda next Sunday: SV Werder Bremen will face Borussia Mönchengladbach away on matchday 3 of the Bundesliga. Kick-off is at 5:30 p.m. Bremen have not yet shown their best side in the new season and only got one point from the first two games. At the start there was a 1:4 defeat against Eintracht Frankfurt and in the last game there was a hard-fought 3:3 draw against Bayer Leverkusen, after the team had fallen behind 1:3 in the meantime - and that was outnumbered!

What can the fans expect in this game? According to Deichstube, the game will not be broadcast on free TV. Instead, the streaming service DAZN shows the encounter exclusively in a live stream, commented on by Jan Platte, while Turid Knaak is there as an expert. Tobi Wahnschaffe moderates the whole thing and the preliminary reporting begins at 5:00 p.m.

Exciting background information and statistics

Werder Bremen will try to finally prove themselves and get their first important points. The pressure could increase on the players given their previous performances in the team. BVB also has a similar goal: a win against Bremen would fuel hopes of a successful season. Last season, both teams met in several thrilling encounters, with Borussia Mönchengladbach most recently being remembered for a 4-2 win against Werder Bremen. In this game, Alassane Pléa even scored a hat trick.

If successful, Gladbach can also look forward to the return of Joe Scally and Ko Itakura after suspensions. On the other hand, Werder Bremen will have to do without the suspended Mitchell Weiser. A lot is happening in the Bundesliga after the start of the new season and fans can look forward to an exciting encounter.

Live broadcasts and alternatives
