BVB are one point ahead of RB Leipzig and could really use a win. Folks, we are getting down to the nitty gritty. There are ten games remaining in the Bundesliga, and Borussia Dortmund are hanging onto their Champions League spot by a thread.

Instead, Werder have taken a step forward under head coach Ole Werner. Unfortunately for them, Werder are probably not going to make up the seven points that separate them from sixth place, which would earn them a spot in the UEFA Conference League. but it?s still undeniable that their season has been a success thus far. Player to Watch: Justin Njinmah
Note: I would have chosen Marvin Ducksch, Werder?s leading goal-scorer and major candidate for the BVB inaugural hey-we-should-have-kept-this-guy award, but I already made him the player to watch in my Hinrunde preview, so I figured I?d shake things up a little.
