AURICH, Germany (Interstat) — SpVg Aurich will look to build on a dominant head-to-head record when it hosts Werder Bremen II on Sunday in a Regionalliga match at Ostfrieslandstadion.

The game, set for a 3 p.m. local kickoff on May 31, 2026, comes two months after Aurich defeated Werder Bremen II 4-0 on the road. That result is part of an overall trend: Aurich has not lost to its opponent in the two most recent meetings, having also won 5-1 at home in March.

Aurich enters the match after a 2-1 defeat at Henstedt-Ulzburg on May 16. The loss was its second in three games, following a 5-0 loss at Eimsbuetteler and a 3-0 setback at Holstein Kiel. Despite those results, Aurich has shown offensive firepower earlier in the season, including a 5-1 win over SV Hastenbeck in March and a 5-1 victory against Victoria Hamburg in October.

Werder Bremen II, the reserve side of Bundesliga club Werder Bremen, arrives after a 2-0 win at SV Hastenbeck on May 17. That victory snapped a two-game winless streak for the visitors, who had drawn 0-0 against Saint Pauli and lost 5-3 to Henstedt-Ulzburg in April. The team has been inconsistent, with highs such as a 10-0 demolition of TSV Barmke on May 10 and lows including a 3-1 loss to Hannover 96 in November.

Overall, Werder Bremen II has conceded seven goals in its last two matches against Aurich, and the simulator from Interstat projects a 2-1 home win. But the visitors will lean on a defense that held Hastenbeck scoreless and kept a clean sheet against Saint Pauli.

The Regionalliga, Germany’s fourth-tier league, features regional divisions. This match falls in the closing stretch of the season, with both teams jockeying for position. Aurich has shown the ability to score in bunches but has also been vulnerable away from home against top sides. Werder Bremen II, meanwhile, remains a work in progress, blending young talent with occasional inconsistency.

The referee assignment was not announced. No major injuries have been reported for either side.

Kickoff is scheduled for 3 p.m. local time.
