Tim Borowski is still not fit to play

Tim Borowski might be out of action for another week due to his back injury. The former Bayern Munich player was expected to be fit and back on the field for Saturday's game against Hoffenheim. However, it looks like the team will have to meet the opponent without its highly-rated midfielder. 

Werder Bremen currently hold the fourth place in the Bundesliga table with 15 points from previous matches. The team has been unbeaten after a 3-2 loss against Eintracht Frankfurt at the very begining of the league.
