Hi everyone,

Another interesting chess match of the weekend probably will take place in Berlin, where the host team meets OSG Baden-Baden. After signing a handful of new players - in particular Levon Aronian - Berlin is one of the major surprises in the current season. Join the games via Liveportal at Saturday to see if the winner of Tata Steel Chess 2012 is playing for his German team.

The top match of the weekend takes place in Emsdetten, where Werder Bremen meets Mülheim on Sunday. These are the best teams after Baden-Baden, so expect a bunch of world class players facing each other.
