Dortmund vs Werder Bremen prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2022-08-19 13:30.
In-form Borussia Dortmund along with Bayern Munich are the only sides enjoying a perfect start to the Bundesliga campaign (W2). New Dortmund coach Edin Terzić is certainly enjoying life and after a successful interim spell in the 2020/21 season, his side's 3-1 league victory over Freiburg last time out saw him become BVB’s first manager to preside over nine consecutive Bundesliga wins.
Recently stating that his team "will give everything for success", the determination was clear in Dortmund’s comeback victory over Freiburg, with all three goalscorers coming from the bench – the first time three substitutes have scored for BVB in one Bundesliga game. Dortmund will hope that this impressive squad depth can help preserve a record that has seen them beaten only once in their previous 22 Bundesliga campaigns on matchday three (W17, D4)!
Werder Bremen have started their season with a pair of 2-2 draws following their promotion last season but are now 12 top-flight games without triumph – including a 4-1 defeat to BVB here from their 2020/21 campaign. That is the longest winless run from any team in the league and is fast approaching Bremen’s club-record 14-game Bundesliga winless streak from the 2017/18 season!
At least they are unbeaten in their last five road trips in all competitions (W3, D2), and can lean on a menacing goalscoring record, having netted in each of the 21 league games under Ole Werner’s stewardship. This could propel them against a Dortmund side that has kept just one clean sheet in their last five Bundesliga home games (W3, L2) with the club from North Rhine failing to keep a home shutout against Bremen since 2013/14, in a H2H that often produces plenty of goals!
Players to watch: Celebrating a new contract, highly-rated youngster Jamie Bynoe-Gittens grabbed his first goal for his side in their victory over Freiburg, making Dortmund the side with the most English scorers in the history of the Bundesliga (three). Meanwhile, Bremen forward Niclas FĂĽllkrug has netted in consecutive Bundesliga outings, but has never scored against BVB!
Hot stat: Dortmund substitutes scored 14 Bundesliga goals last season – the most of any side.
