As usual, a best-of-three format was used. The match against Werder Bremen started with a 2 vs 2 in the first game with the Leverkusen cousins Marc ‘MARC_LDW23’ Landwehr and Sean ‘SEAN_LDW07’ Landwehr facing the Germany eSports player Berkay ‘BERKAYLION’ Demirci and Henning ‘HENNING’ Wilmbusse. That game ended in a 3-0 defeat from a Black and Red perspective. The first 1 vs 1 pitched Sean Landwehr against Bremen's Demirci – final score 2-2. The third game against Werder was won by Marc Landwehr with a 4-1 victory over Ilias ‘LEFTI’ Eleftherios. That meant the overall result was a fair draw.
The next opponents Holstein Kiel finished bottom of the table in the North Waste Division last season. The Landwehr cousins in the 2 vs 2 game lost 3-1 to the Storks eSports players Julius ‘JULI’ Kühl and Colin ‘COOOLLIIIN’ Völter. But the #B04eSports players secured three important points thanks to the following 1 vs 1 wins for Marc (3-1 against Völter) and Sean Landwehr (6-1 against Kühl).
Game three of the evening was against VBL CC newcomers VfL Osnabrück – the first club in the competition with a squad made up exclusively of female players. The opening 2 vs 2 game saw Leverkusen’s Mario ‘BULJI’ Lovrinovic play alongside Marc Landwehr as he made his debut in the VBL CC 2023/24. The duo were the winners against the Osnabrück players Josephine ‘PULLUJALLA’ Ojih and Vinicia ‘VINICIA_BRC’ de Oliveira Branco with a 4-2 victory. The second overall winner of the evening was sealed when ‘BULJI’ also won the following 1 vs 1 against de Oliveira Branco (5-2).
Next Tuesday, 28 November, brings another triple matchday. It starts at 17.30 CET against SC Paderborn followed by the games against Hamburg SV from 19.00 CET. The match is rounded off with a game against VBL CC newcomers Borussia Dortmund (from 20.30 CET).

The Werkself beat Olympiacos 2-0 in the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League play-off first leg to claim a crucial victory in the Greek capital. After a focused first-half display with a number of presentable chances, Patrik Schick crowned a textbook counter to hand the Werkself the lead on the hour (60’). The Czech rounded off his brace when he headed in from a corner just 144 seconds later. Bayer 04 maintained their lead with aplomb to achieve a good position for the return leg in Leverkusen.

Bayer 04 and Olympiacos had only met twice before the current UEFA Champions campaign. After the encounter on Matchday 7 of this season’s league phase, the Werkself travel to face the Greek side for the second time in just four weeks for the knockout play-off first leg. The Black and Reds were dominant for large spells in mid-January but lost 2-0 after missing a number of presentable chances. The Werkself aim to do better on Wednesday night to “seize the chance for revenge,” as managing director sport Simon Rolfes put it. Here’s all you need to know ahead of the game in our matchday news.

A bitter end to the fifth showdown of the 2025/26 VBL Club Championship as the #B04eSports team failed to take any points in the three remaining matches of the preliminary online round of the fifth and final showdown, missing out on the offline round. They can no longer take points in the overall table. Bayer 04 slipped out on the top eight, so direct participation in the final event for the German Club Championship is no longer possible, with Bayer 04 having to contest the play-offs.
