Nordi Mukiele has scored four Bundesliga goals - with two coming in games against Werder Bremen
RB Leipzig returned to the top of the Bundesliga as they ended a four-game winless run with a comfortable victory over struggling Werder Bremen.
Patrik Schick set up Lukas Klostermann's opener and headed in their second.
Nordi Mukiele ran on to a through ball to give them the third moments after the restart.
Defending champions Bayern Munich can reclaim top spot if they win at Cologne on Sunday (14:30 GMT).
Elsewhere, Bayer Leverkusen moved into the top four thanks to Karim Bellarabi's 94th-minute winner in a 3-2 victory at Union Berlin.
The game was interrupted on several occasions as fans lit flares and smoke bombs in the stands.
Hertha Berlin beat Paderborn 2-1 in their first game since the resignation of Jurgen Klinsmann after only 10 weeks.
Wout Weghorst scored a hat-trick as Wolfsburg beat Hoffenheim 3-2.
