RB Leipzig vs Werder Bremen prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2024-05-10 13:30.
[p]With the Bundesliga gaining an additional UEFA Champions League group stage spot for next season thanks to the outstanding exploits of German clubs in Europe this campaign, RB Leipzig have already secured their place. As a result, they’re now effectively playing the rest of the season for pride, but after a 1-1 draw with Hoffenheim in the last round despite finishing the match with ten men, Leipzig are fighting to extend a nine-match unbeaten league run (W7, D2). [/p]
[p]Having won each of their six prior home H2Hs against next opponents Werder Bremen, Leipzig could hardly have hand-picked a better opponent to face when they look to extend their current home unbeaten league run to seven straight matches (W5, D1). The hosts will be hoping that their goal scoring continues in order to achieve that, as they’ve scored 39 goals across their 16 home Bundesliga outings this term – a joint club record after that amount of matches.  [/p]
[p]With just one loss from their last five league fixtures (W2, D2), visiting Werder Bremen have seemingly been made of stronger stuff lately, as they continue to enjoy their strongest German top-flight campaign in recent years. With 38 points to their name to date, the away side have recorded their highest tally after 32 matches since the 2018/19 campaign during which they finished in eighth spot. [/p]
[p]With two matches to play, Werder could finish one position higher this time around and sneak into Europe given that they started this latest matchday sat just three points behind Freiburg in seventh, but a return to the road could cause some unrest. That’s because they’ve won just one of their last five away league matches (D1, L3) whilst conceding ten goals in the process!  [/p]
[p]Players to watch: In his debut season with Leipzig, Benjamin Ĺ eško has struck 16 goals across all competitions with four of his last nine being headers. As for Werder, 22-year-old Nick Woltemade netted a brace last time – his first goals in the Bundesliga – whilst he’s unbeaten across all 12 of his goal scoring senior club appearances (W10, D2).  [/p]
[p]Hot stat: Werder Bremen have averaged 3.41 corners per Bundesliga outing this season – the lowest average in the division. [/p]
