In the time of the coronavirus pandemic, the press conferences after Bundesliga games have taken a different form. Both coaches separately enter the media centre at the BayArena while journalists sit in the press box. The media representatives have the opportunity to put their questions via video conference.
Both press conferences will be streamed live on bayer04.de. That means fans, as well as journalists, will be able to follow the remarks of the two head coaches. Oliver Glasner will field the questions from the journalists first. Peter Bosz will then take his place and comment on the game against the Wolves.
Bayer 04 were beaten 1-0 away at Union Berlin on Matchday 23 in the Bundesliga. Kasper Hjulmand’s side struggled to create clear chances, while the hosts struck the only goal of the game through Rani Khedira in the 28th minute.

Here’s all you need to know ahead of the game in our matchday news.
