devioustrevor Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 After today's games, the German Bundesliga is in for quite the final weekend. Bayern is the only team that is guaranteed to make the Champions League right now. Schalke can still fall into a UEFA Cup spot if they lose and Stuttgart and Hertha Berlin both win. Werder Bremen still also has a shot at getting to the CL. **NOTE** Only the Top-3 teams in Germany qualify for the Champions League Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed said a while ago that Bremen could no longer qualify for the CL and he repeated it in this week's preview. I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm confused. My mistake. I thought one or the other of Stuttgart or Hertha would grab a win today and neither did. Werder Bremen still have a shot as Stuttgart will be hard pressed to win next weekend against Bayern Munich but I'd say Hertha Berlin are in the driver's seat, at home against Hannover.

argh1 Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Quite the turn around for Hertha Berlin weren't they in relegation mix last season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devioustrevor Posted May 21, 2005 Author Share Posted May 21, 2005 Stuttgart lost, Hertha Berlin drew and Werder Bremen won. By my count, that means that Werder Bremen finishes 3rd and gets back into the Champions League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, technically they aren't guarenteed a spot in the CL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
