Apart from the 18 Bundesliga fixtures on the last two matchdays, with simultaneous Saturday afternoon kick-offs at 15.30 CET as usual, the Werkself are in action on matchdays 30 to 32 as follows:
The clash with the German record champions is on Saturday, 6 June, at 15.30 CET at the BayArena. On the following weekend, the Werkself are away to Schalke 04 on Sunday, 14 June, with the kick-off at 18.00 CET. Three days later, Bayer 04 are at home to FC Köln on Wednesday, 17 June (20.30 CET) in the derby with the Rhine rivals.
The matches will all be played behind closed doors due to the coronavirus pandemic.
This fan meeting got off to a rather unexpected start. On Sunday afternoon, the Bayer 04 managing directors had just welcomed the fans present at the team hotel for the traditional get-together at the training camp when Fernando Carro’s phone rang. The CEO, glancing towards managing director sport Simon Rolfes with a smile, said: “We’ll just have to answer that quickly.” When asked by the fans what the call was actually about, the pair left it open with a wink. Instead, Carro and Rolfes then spent over an hour happily answering the fans’ many other questions.
