Werder Bremen vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction and Preview – 14/05/16
Bundesliga preview – Werder Bremen vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction.
Bremen will be without midfielder Fin Bartels who is suspended for the relegation decider on Saturday. The most logical replacement, Sambou Yatabare is injured and Viktor Skripnik could opt for 19-year-old Max Eggestein who came on as a late substitution against Cologne. Full-back Santiago Garcia is a doubtful starter after suffering concussion in the 0-0 draw and Janek Sternberg is on standby if required.
Frankfurt centre-forward Haris Seferovic returns from a one-match which probably means Luc Castaignos will start on the bench. Leading scorer Alexander Meier is back in training after undergoing knee surgery but time is against the 33-year-old getting back to full fitness by the weekend. Central midfielder Szabolcs Huszti will miss the game through suspension and with Stefan Reinartz out of action, Marc Stendera could step in.

Werder Bremen 4-2-3-1 formation: Wiedwald; Gebre Selassie, Vestergaard, Djilobodji, Sternberg; Fritz, Grillitsch; Oztunali, Junuzovic, Eggestein; Pizarro
