An important duel in the bottom section of the Bundesliga, with both Paderborn and Werder Bremen experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 18th and the visitors in 17th place.

Relegation threatens Paderborn who should definitely be looking for some points here. Werder Bremen are fighting to avoid relegation and will work hard for points.
