Werder Bremen and Hamburger SV clash in the second UEFA Cup semi-final. This is a German affair. We already know that the Final will be played between and Ukrainian and a German squad. In my opinion Werder start this double leg battle as favorites, although Hamburger have a better season in the Bundesliga.
Werder Bremen will finish the domestic season out of an European Cup spot. They will do their best to win this last UEFA Cup edition and earn themselves a spot in next year’s Europe League. The two clubs played twice this season. Hamburg won the home Bundesliga game with 2-1, while Werder won away, 4-2 in the DFB Pokal.
