RB Leipzig vs Werder Bremen prediction: GERMANY: Bundesliga betting tips on match 2025-11-22 14:30.
[p]RB Leipzig return from the international break looking to respond to their unbeaten run ending, as they take on manager Ole Werner’s former side Werder Bremen.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Leipzig squandered the lead in a 3-1 defeat away at Hoffenheim in their last outing, with that result seeing them lose further ground on runaway leaders Bayern and cutting their margin to the chasing pack. A nine-match unbeaten run across all competitions prior (W8, D1) means there’s no reason to panic, especially as the Red Bulls’ 22 points at this stage is their second-best tally in their top-flight history. Twelve of those were picked up at the Red Bull Arena, where they’ve won their first four home league matches of the season for just the second time in their history.[/p]
[p]Werder Bremen will be looking to continue their strong recent form and enter the race for the European places, as a five-match unbeaten run (W3, D2) has them sitting inside the top half pre-round. The River Islanders came from behind to beat Wolfsburg before the break to take them to 15 points, a haul they’ve bettered at this stage of just one of their last 12 top-flight seasons. Hitting the road here could potentially derail their progress since they’ve won just once away from home all season (D2, L3).[/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]Leipzig have lost just two of their 17 games against Bremen (W11, D4), but three draws in the last four H2Hs (W1) show this fixture is getting more competitive.[/p]
[p]Hot Stats and Streaks[/p]
[p]Leipzig’s last four games each produced over 3.5 goals.[/p]
[p]Leipzig’s last six Bundesliga wins saw them score first and lead at half-time.[/p]
[p]None of Bremen’s last five matches was decided by a 2+ goal margin.[/p]
[p]Six of Bremen’s last eight away league matches produced over 1.5 first-half goals.[/p]
[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]
[p]Leipzig’s Christoph Baumgartner relishes playing Bremen having scored on four different occasions against them in the Bundesliga, albeit twice he ended up on the losing side. He’ll engage in a midfield tussle against Bremen’s Jens Stage, who’ll be up for the fight having scored ten of his last 14 Bundesliga goals on the road. [/p]
[p]Leipzig are set to be without El Chadaille Bitshiabu, while Bremen defenders Niklas Stark and Maximilian Wöber are nearing returns. [/p]

[p]Leipzig seem the likely victors, so backing them to be winning at both half-time and full-time, as they’ve done in six of their eight home H2Hs, seems a smart move.[/p]
