SV Meppen – TSG Hoffenheim (Sunday, 13:01)
Two useless teams meet in Meppen on Sunday. The promoted hosts TSG Hoffenheim. Meppen recently lost narrowly to SGS Essen, sometimes due to under-exploitation of chances.
Despite a defeat against Wolfsburg, the Hoffenheim side are prepared for their next match. In front of over 7,000 spectators, they gained a healthy dose of self-confidence at their home premiere and now want to reward themselves with points against SV Meppen.
Eintracht Frankfurt – SV Werder Bremen (Sunday, 13:01)
Aside from failing to qualify for the Champions League, Eintracht Frankfurt can be quite pleased with how the season has gone so far. One point against Monaco, three against Freiburg. This gives hope again for a good place in the standings. Now Eintracht welcomes SV Werder Bremen and wants to support the good start.
Before the match, defender Sjoeke Nüsken highlights the dangerous standards set by Bremen. “It will be a complicated match. We have to react from the first minute and ideally take the lead at the start,” he told the DFB. With the exception of Laura Freigang, whose assignment is still uncertain, all players are available in Frankfurt.
After the clear 0: 3 against Monaco, Bremen are not at all unmotivated. On the contrary. Coach Thomas Horsch is proud of his team: “We played a very good match against a team like Bayern Munich and we managed to put pressure on them. In the end we opened, but it was a great performance.” However, the match shouldn’t be any less difficult against Frankfurt and Bremen need more of a “great performance” to take something countable for the table this time around.
MSV Duisburg – Bayern Munich (Sunday, 4:01 pm)
David welcomes Goliath, it is said Sunday afternoon in Duisburg. The women promoted by MSV have FC Bayern Munich as guests. With a narrow defeat to Leverkusen and a 3-0 win against Potsdam last week, the Duisburg side have started the season well, although of course they will enter the game as outsiders.
Sarah Freutel, who has effectively finished her career and is now back in the Bundesliga, does not want to hide: “If we take the momentum of the match in Potsdam and defend very disciplined from the start, maybe something is possible”.
Alexander Strauss’ side, which went through a huge upheaval, still lack the last fluency on the pitch.

SC Freiburg – SGS Essen (Sunday, 16:01)
A lot of effort, little profit: this was the conclusion of manager Theresa Merk after the home defeat of her Freiburg side against Frankfurt. For the fans, however, there is another chance this week to hope for points at home: SGS Essen are visiting the Dreisamstadion.
Essen arrives in Freiburg with confidence. With a 1-0 win, SGS secured three points against newly promoted Meppen last weekend.
