Huge chance for Kownacki
The striker gets on the end on Njinmah's lobbed pass, but his header is straight at Schuhen. He really should have done better there!

Now then!
A second for Bremen, and maybe this isn't over just yet! Some lovely build-up play released Duscksch in the area, and his pass across the face of goal is tapped home by Veljković.
Goal probability
Goal probability
Goal probability determines the likelihood that the ball will land in the goal from every position on the pitch. The value is based on large amounts of data from previous years; factors such as shot angle, distance to goal and opponent pressure - as well as mathematical models.
Distance to Goal
Distance to Goal
The distance to goal is measured at the time of the shot - from the position of the ball to the center of the goal.

Almost five!
A corner is flicked on to the back post, but Honsak can't quite divert it goalwards. Darmstadt are hungry for more goals!
72'
Bremen pull one back
Weiser's brilliant cross finds Deman at the back post, and he bullets a header into the corner for his first Bundesliga goal. Still a long way back for Die Werderaner, but they are at least on the board now.

A penalty is given after Pieper handles Honsak's effort, and from the resulting spot-kick, Kempe makes no mistake!

Darmstadt flying!
Another for Lieberknecht's men, and this time Mehlem is the goalscorer, calmly slotting into the corner after Pavlenka had gone to ground!

Efficient Darmstadt
xGoals
The xGoals value of a club is calculated from the sum of all goal probabilities (goals and shots on goal) of that team. During a match, it’s easy to see whether the club is performing better than expected (goals > xGoals) - or maybe even higher (xGoals > goals).

Mehlem shot saved
The midfielder doesn't get enough behind his attempt as the ball breaks to him just outside the area, resulting in a comfortable save for Pavlenka.

Darmstadt two to the good!
Another great finish extends Darmstadt's advantage. Skarke's timing is perfect as he beats the offside trap to race through on goal and, although he still has a lot to do to beat Pavlenka, he strokes home from an angle.

Bremen slow off the mark
Bader's strike was already the third goal Bremen have conceded this term inside the opening five minutes - a stat that will not please Werner in the dugout.
17'
Ducksch tests Schuhen
A first shot on target for Ole Werner's men as the strike fires a free-kick goalkeeper, but the Darmstadt shot-stopper is equal to it.

Subdued from Bremen
The visitors have been unable to cause their opponents any problems so far, although they have enjoyed plenty of possession in Darmstadt half.

Darmstadt take the lead!
Die Lilien have lift-off thanks to a brilliant finish from Bader. A searching Mehlem cross finds the 26-year-old all on his own at the back post, and he produces a calm, volleyed finish to beat Pavlenka!

Hope for Darmstadt
The Lilies have picked up more points in Bundesliga meetings with Bremen than any team they've faced (10), avoiding defeat in all four fixtures on home soil (W2, D2). Will that positive run continue?
