Borussia Dortmund will need to win this match, to secure the third place in Bundesliga and an automatic qualification to the group stage of UEFA Champions League. They are currently having the same number of points as Hoffenheim, and this is why the Millionaires need to win this match. On the other hand, Werder Bremen has slight chances to reach Europa League place, and even if they win, they do not entirely depend only on themselves. If they played the whole time, like in the second part of the season, for sure, there would fight for Champions League spot now.
