Hoffenheim - Werder Bremen predictions

Though the home team can be called favourites, they can’t quite relax going into the match at Werder Bremen. Their advantage is quite narrow, and just a few mistakes could end up costing them the game.

Werder are coming into this match as underdogs, though the difference is not overwhelming. Even so, they’re not all that likely to win. An Away Win bet is priced at 2.84 with top online bookies, which could bring a decent profit.

The hosts are coming off from a narrow away defeat Union Berlin from the previous Bundesliga fixture. They were never able to put up a real fight as they fell behind in the first 45 minutes and never got a chance to catch up despite the minimum goal deficit.

Werder Bremen played against Bayern München last round, so it’s hard to be surprised by the harsh 0:5 home loss. The 1.45 betting odds are a good indication of just how one-sided such a matchup is.

Hoffenheim’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 9 goals throughout their latest three Bundesliga matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

With 6 goals in their own net over the last 3 matches, Werder Bremen’s defence leaves a lot to be desired.

Werder are 11th in the standings with 5 points won so far. Such results are rather mediocre, and the season could yet see either a drastic improvement or a slump from them. A win at HoffenheimS would be a great way to prove they have what it takes to reach the top positions.

With Dennis Geiger, Ihlas Bebou, Anton Stach, Finn Ole Becker, Grischa Prömel, David Jurásek all out of the picture, Hoffenheim’s lineup is in shambles. The odds may favour them though but we still advise some caution.

An Over 3.5 Goals is the best option for this fixture, though it’s not perfect by any means. That said, the notable risk of failure is worth it due to the considerable betting value that can be found in the 1 odds.
