Werder Bremen vs Eintracht Frankfurt prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2022-08-27 15:30.
Ole Werner and his Werder Bremen squad wrote their names into Bundesliga folklore last time out after becoming the first side to win a game after entering the 89th minute with a two-goal deficit (3-2 vs Borussia Dortmund). With all of their goals being scored by substitutes in that game, the Bundesliga’s youngest current manager at 34 years of age has been hailed a genius by many.
That result means that promoted Bremen have kept their unbeaten start to league action alive (W1, D2), which is now only their fourth time going unbeaten across the opening three rounds since winning the title back in 2003/04! If they’re to continue in that vein, Bremen must end their longest winless run of top-flight home games amongst the current Bundesliga crop (D2, L5), which began following a 2-1 win over none other than Eintracht Frankfurt!
Reality has bitten Frankfurt hard, with their Europa League success preceding a woeful start to this campaign. A 2-0 Super Cup defeat and a winless start to their Bundesliga season (D2, L1) has brought the Eagles back down to earth, although their domestic woes are nothing new, with Oliver Glasner’s men currently on the club’s worst run of winless league games (D7, L4) since a 16-game run back in 1983/84!
Considering that a league-high 67% of Frankfurt’s goals have been scored by substitutes ahead of this round, Glasner may opt to switch things up from the outset as his side search for their first league win. However, with Glasner holding his best ever Bundesliga winning streak against none other than Bremen (W3), and with three unbeaten games from four against promoted sides last term, Frankfurt’s resurgence could be nigh.
Players to watch: Oliver Burke is becoming Bremen’s man for the big occasion after scoring a result-altering goal on 90+5’ as a substitute in each of the last two rounds! Similarly, Frankfurt’s Daichi Kamada scored within two minutes of his introduction from the bench last time out, making it back-to-back scoring games for the attacking midfielder.
Hot stat: Bremen have failed to keep a clean sheet in six of their last eight Sunday games, yet still went unbeaten (W5, D3).
