Werder Bremen vs Bayern Munich

A win may not be enough for Jupp Heynckes\' side as Dortmund will retain the title should they defeat Gladbach, so the coach will rest key players for their visit to Madrid.Thomas Schaaf\'s side have slid down the table in recent weeks with a series of disappointing results making qualifying for Europe only a distant possibility with just three games remaining.Going into the fixture Werder possess a number of absentees with the suspensions of Clemens Fritz, Sokratis Papastathopoulos and Sebastian Boenisch in defence as well as Philipp Bargfrede (Achilles), Mehmet Ekici (groin) and Marko Marin all on the sidelines through injury.Should Borussia Dortmund defeat Borussia Monchengladbach this weekend they will be crowned Bundesliga champions so Jupp Heynckes is likely to rest as many key players as possible ahead of the second leg of their Champions League semi-final against Real Madrid.With Holger Badstuber suspended, and Breno and Daniel Van Buyten still recovering from suspension, Anatoliy Tymoshchuk will likely plug the gap at centre-back.No fewer than seven first-team players could be rested by the Bayern coach including Philipp Lahm, David Alaba, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Toni Kroos, Arjen Robben, Franck Ribery and Mario Gomez. Takashi Usami could therefore make his first start for the Bavarians while Nils Petersen could return to the fold for his first appearance since the 2-0 defeat to Bayer Leverkusen in March.
