Bochum - Werder Bremen predictions

The online bookies marked Bochum as the favourites, which makes a lot of sense. Still, we wouldn’t put Werder Bremen winning beyond them – not to mention that draws are a strong possibility in relatively balanced games.

The 3.25 away win betting odds indicate that Werder Bremen are the underdogs of this matchup. The difference is not huge, though, so both a victory for the visitors and are draw are still on the table.

Bochum’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Bayer Leverkusen as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 4:0 loss for Bochum.

The away team earned a single point for the Bundesliga standings last round thanks to the 1:1 draw in a home game. They’re likely much happier with that outcome than their opponents RB Leipzig, though, who were the hard favourites in that matchup.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and Bochum have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

With several consecutive victories against Bochum last season, the visitors may be able to beat the odds and come out on top in this matchup. Although the victories were recorded in the previous season, they weren’t even close calls and all ended with Werder Bremen leading by 2 goals or more.

To make things even more difficult for the visitors, they’ve had an unfortunate run of injuries recently. Miloš Veljković, Nicolai Rapp, Amos Pieper, Leon Opitz have all been put out of contention, leaving the team’s coach with a more limited set of options at his disposal.

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
