Werder Bremen pair Daniel Jensen and Mohamed Zidan are both doubtful for next Wednesday's UEFA Champions League tie with PFC Levski Sofia after picking up injuries this week.
Double blow
Jensen, 27, returned from international duty with Denmark suffering from a strain to an adductor muscle. The midfielder opened the scoring in his country's 4-0 UEFA EURO 2008™ win in Liechtenstein on Wednesday before being forced off at half-time. He will miss Saturday's trip to VfL Bochum 1848, as will 24-year-old Egypt forward Zidan who sustained a knock in training on Thursday. No details about Zidan's injury were released by the club but it is serious enough to prevent him featuring against Bochum.
