Werder Bremen Prediction
Werder Bremen currently occupy a safe mid-table position of 10th on the Bundesliga ladder but all three points from Friday night’s clash against struggling Stuttgart would see the hosts move within striking distance of the European spots in the German top flight.
Overall form has been solid enough from the hosts as they’ve put together a useful looking five match sequence without defeat which is a refreshing change from their previous dismal run of claiming just one league win from their previous nine matches.
Recent wins against Hannover and Augsburg, the latter being a 4-0 win at home, along with points picked up against Eintracht Frankfurt, Nurnberg and Hertha Berlin have maintained Werder Bremen’s outside hopes of claiming a possible fifth placed finish in the Bundesliga.
Their home record stands at 4-4-3 21/18 and they’re unbeaten in their last four at their Weserstadion too, while Bremen also have various players that can hit the back of the net; midfielders Eggestein (5 goals) and Rashica (4 goals) along with forward Kruse (4 goals).
- Werder Bremen are unbeaten in their last 5 matches overall
- Werder Bremen are unbeaten in their last 4 matches at home
- Stuttgart have lost 6 of their last 7 matches in the Bundesliga
Stuttgart Prediction
Stuttgart sit in the relegation play-off spot in the Bundesliga having lost six of their last seven matches in the German top flight with defeats to Wolfsburg, Schalke 04, Mainz 05, Bayern Munich, Fortuna Dusseldorf and RB Leipzig.
With just one draw within this poor seven match sequence (a 2-2 draw at home with Freiburg), this means the visitors have gained just one point from the possible 21 on offer during this period, and they face a tough trip to Werder Bremen this Friday night too.
Stuttgart have earned just four league wins all season, three of which have been achieved at their Mercedes-Benz-Arena, while an away record of 1-1-9 7/27 tells its own story as the visitors have slumped to five defeats on the trot on their travels in recent weeks.
In addition, Stuttgart have failed to score in 7 of their 11 away matches to date as well as conceding 2 goals or more in 9 of these 11 matches also.
Betting Tips Verdict
Given Stuttgart’s very poor performances and results on the road this season, this should therefore be a pretty straightforward win for Werder Bremen who can put pressure on the likes of 6th placed Wolfsburg with a win here.
