Werder Bremen vs Union Berlin Prediction & Betting Tips (21 December)

After narrowly missing a European qualification last season, Werder Bremen would undoubtedly like to be able to take their revenge this year. In any case, he is in the process of giving himself the means because, almost halfway through the season, he is in 9th place in the rankings with only one small point behind the top 6. Since his last defeat against Eintracht Frankfurt, this team revived by holding Stuttgart in check 2-2. The Werderaner then delivered 2 very convincing performances outside their bases by getting rid of the red lantern Bochum 0-1 and Sankt Pauli 0-2 last weekend. On the other side of the halfway line, we can start to worry about this Union Berlin team which is no longer moving forward after a fantastic start to the season.

The capital club has not had the slightest success for 2 months and 7 days, thus seeing the competition take off in the race for Europe. Conversely, he risks having to look behind even if he still has 7 lengths of margin in the red zone. Recently, the Iron Men had to give up their weapons against Wolfsburg 1-0, Bayer Leverkusen 1-2 and Stuttgart 3-2 and they were not even able to find the means to get rid of the red lantern, Bochum, 1-1 last week, who nevertheless played a large part of the match outnumbered. 

Werder still has to deal with the defections of senior defender Agu (2 goals) and young striker Topp (1 goal). Absent during the trip to the Sankt Pauli field last week, the very important Bittencourt, the precious Njinmah and the young striker Opitz also risk having to remain in the hands of the medical staff. Midfielder Naby Keïta is still dismissed by his club. In the heart of the game, the Danish Stage is the real cornerstone of this team and he is even very skillful in front of goal since he already has 6 goals to his credit. Up front, the formidable Ducksch (4 goals, 6 assists) is also very interesting and he was also able to crash against Sankt Pauli last weekend.

Among the Iron Men, the young goalkeeper Stein, the defender Ogbemudia and striker Ilic are still hampered by physical problems and they will have to give up making the trip to the banks of the Weser. The now very little used Volland (ex-Monaco) and the middle Benes should also give up taking part in this last poster of the calendar year. By equalizing against Bochum, the interesting Hollerbach took the lead in the scoring rankings of this team with only 3 goals. He is now ahead of South Korean Jeong Weooyeong and defender Rothe who have 2 goals each.
