In an official announcement on Monday, Werder state that the game is expected to be called off due to several positive COVID-19 tests in the Regensburg camp.
The two clubs are currently waiting for the German Football Association (DFB) to make a final decision on the game.
Regensburg coach Mersad Selimbegovic tested positive for coronavirus on Friday, but their 2. Bundesliga game against Paderborn still went ahead as planned and was played on the same day.
A further round of testing on Sunday then returned several more positives.
