Wolfsburg vs Werder Bremen Prediction & Betting Tips (20 October)

Wolfsburg scared themselves last year. After an interesting first part of the season, the WfL completely stalled after the winter break to finish in the 2nd part of the ranking, not so far ahead of the fight for maintenance. Things don't seem to be going much better at the moment for this team which, after 6 days, is only in 12th place in this Bundesliga. Beaten by Eintracht Frankfurt 1-2 then by Bayer Leverkusen at the very end of the match 4-3, the Wolves were then able to correct the situation by taking a good point against a good Stuttgart team 1-1 then winning their 2nd victory of the season in Bochum on the last day 1-3.

Opposite, Werder Bremen had been more visible last year by coming within a small goal of qualifying for the Conference League. But for the moment, this team must be content with a place in the soft underbelly of this Bundesliga and in 11th position in the ranking after a mixed start to the season. Too irregular, the Werderaner were able to win away from their bases against Mainz 1-2 and Hoffenheim 3-4 but they were beaten twice at home by Bayern Munich 0-5 and by Friborg 0-1 before the international break.

Victim of numerous injuries for several months or even years, the talented but very fragile Lukas Nmecha is still not able to hold his place. In addition, the Wolves are also without defender Rogerio, Dane Maehle, striker Bialek, American Paredes and Croatian playmaker Lovro Majer (2 goals this season). Replacement goalkeeper Klinger and important midfielder Svanberg (1 goal) complete this long list of absentees. After taking time to unlock his counter, the Danish Wind has just scored 3 goals in the last 2 days including a double against Bochum 15 days ago.

Among the visitors, defender Veljkovic, the Scottish striker replacing Burke, the rather interesting Njinmah (1 goal this season; 6 goals, 2 assists last year), defender Stark, midfielder Lynen and the very little used Backhaus and Nankishi are all forced to withdraw from this trip to Wolfsburg. The Keita midfielder is always left on the sidelines by his leaders. On the offensive side, the Werderaner should count on the very good scorer Ducksch (1 goal, 1 assist decisive) as well as on the Danish Stage who scored 3 goals this season.
