The North derby is just five days away. The 102nd meeting between the sides could be an extra special occasion for Bremen. Last season's 1-0 home victory saw them take the bragging rights in the 100th clash between the sides; if Bremen beat HSV this time it will be their 500th home victory in the Bundesliga.

The omens are looking good for SV Werder Bremen: They've won each of their last four games against HSV. The last time they tasted defeat in this fixture at the Weser-Stadion came over eight years ago (Hamburg won 2-0 on 17th February 2007). Werder have had the upper hand in the match-up of late: They have won six of the last 10 encounters, losing only three times.

Their record in the Weser-Stadion is good too. The sides have met there 50 times and Bremen have won 25 of these matches. There have been 16 draws, meaning they have lost only nine times at home. It's also worth noting that Werder haven't won any of their last five games against sides at the bottom of the table.
