Hoffenheim vs Werder Bremen prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2024-09-28 15:30.
[p]Sunday’s Bundesliga action draws to a close with what could be a tight affair between two sides separated by just two points, Hoffenheim and Werder Bremen. Despite scoring in every league game so far, Hoffenheim (W1, L3) have failed to pick up a point since defeating Holstein Kiel on the opening day and face the added challenge of preparing for this one after the small task of a midweek jaunt to Denmark in the Europa League. [/p]
[p]Returning to the PreZero Arena should be a boost for the Sinsheimers, who despite being hammered 4-1 last time out here, have not lost back-to-back home league games since November 2023. In that time, only two sides have stopped Hoffenheim from getting on the scoresheet (W6, D5, L3), although the fact that Pellegrino Matarazzo’s men haven’t kept a home league clean sheet since April 2023 suggests this may be an end-to-end affair.[/p]
[p]Beginning every league game as the betting outsiders this term, Werder Bremen have done well to taste defeat just once (W1, D2), albeit in a chastising 5-0 home defeat last weekend to Bayern Munich which was their second defeat by that scoreline this calendar year. They may also find this tricky against a Matarazzo-managed side, given that they’ve never defeated the opposing manager in six attempts, despite getting on the scoresheet in five of those games (D1, L5). [/p]
[p]Playing away from home isn’t necessarily a negative for the River Islanders, who head here on the back of a four-game unbeaten league run on the road (W2, D2). One more unbeaten game would equal their best such run in away Bundesliga action since 2019, although the fact that Werder have scored four times but still suffered three straight H2H losses against Hoffenheim may heighten any sense of trepidation for this trip.[/p]
[p]Players to watch: Andrej Kramarić leads the way for Hoffenheim with four goals in as many league games this term, and he may fancy another here given that he’s averaged one goal contribution every other game across his 12 meetings with Werder (G5, A1). For Werder, Marvin Ducksch could be a threat after netting within ten minutes of their previous away league game in addition to making a goal contribution against Hoffenheim in each of the last two campaigns (G1, A1). [/p]
[p]Hot streak: The pre-match betting favourite has won all four of Hoffenheim’s league games so far this season. [/p]
