Bottom three squad SV Werder Bremen (7-15-7, 28 points) will try to get out of the relegation zone as the 2015-2016 Bundesliga season nears its finish, squaring off against last season's runners-up VfL Wolfsburg (10-10-9, 39 points) at the Weserstadion on April 16th, Saturday.
In their last match, Bremen lost to lowly club FC Augsburg, 1-2, also at their home field of Weserstadion last Saturday, as per SkySports.
Die Werderaner actually opened the scoring at the 43rd minute via a right-footed shot from just outside the box by Austrian attacking midfielder Florian Grillitsch to take the lead at the half.
However, Fuggerstädter scored twice in the second half, courtesy of Icelandic forward Alfred Finnbogason and South Korean defender Hong Jeong-ho at the 53rd and 87th minutes respectively, to turn the tables around head coach Viktor Skrypnyk's squad and drop them to the bottom three relegation area.
The loss plunged Werder to the third-from-last place in the current league table, two points behind Augsburg, who escaped the relegation zone with their win.
Meanwhile, three days after their epic 2-0 Champions League win over La Liga powerhouse Real Madrid right at the Volkswagen Arena, Wolfsburg slumped into a 1-1 draw with middling club Mainz also at their home stadium last Saturday, via Soccerway.
It was a huge drop in form for head coach Dieter Hecking's side from their performance against Los Blancos, but still they were able to salvage the tie and a share of a point in the overall standings.
Die Wölfe winger Andre Schurrle scored the opening goal at the 53rd while Mainz midfielder Jairo netted the equalizer at the 66th. Wolfsburg's Brazilian defender Dante was sent off in injury time after getting booked for a second yellow card off a bad foul on Colombian forward Jhon Cordoba.
It was a second consecutive drawn match in the German top flight for the Wolves after their 1-1 contest with Darmstadt in March.
The predicted result is a decisive 2-0 victory for Wolfsburg.
