In the end, the Bundesliga club prevailed clearly 5: 0, ultimately made it to the final, while the Iron were preparing to establish themselves in the second highest German league.

Union Berlin vs Werder Bremen Today’s Betting Prediction

At Union Berlin and Werder Bremen, according to odds, the bookmaker has not changed at least the role of favorite. This is also the guest from the north of the Republic held today. In the table of the Bundesliga, however, the Ironheads are still in the lead, and in eleventh place so far, they have been able to collect one point more than Bremen in 13th place.

By the way, in the case of both opponents, the knot burst only at the weekend before the international break, when both relieved themselves from the table cellar with the first three of the season 2019/20. At Union Berlin against Werder Bremen, the victory of the Iron Stars is of particular relevance for the prediction. The football dwarf struck in the stadium

The Werderaner should be warned accordingly. Instead of tapping who can confirm the first three of the season, we look at Union Berlin against Werder Bremen a different tip than the supposedly best choice. Because both teams have been playing a lot of action so far – already in the first half – we bet that over 1.5 goals will be scored in the first half.

Union Berlin – Statistics & Current Form

As the final whistle echoed through the stadium An der Alten Försterei on 31 August 2019, the surprising climber had officially written Bundesliga history. The very first threesome in the Beletage of German football. Even against Borussia Dortmund, the massive favorites. And what made the whole thing even more incredible: not because of disputed decisions or luck, but earned through and through.

Was the football dwarf after the 0: 4-clap against RB Leipzig on the first matchday still smiled by many sides, before the 1-1 draw in Augsburg was tended to tend to be rather happy, so should the 1. FC Union Berlin – before the season next to the SC Paderborn acted as relegation candidate number one – be rated at the latest with the sensational victory over Dortmund with completely new eyes.

“It is important to confirm the performance against Dortmund because we did a lot of good there. It will be a very difficult game but also an interesting task that we have to face. “- Urs Fischer at bundesliga.com

A performance that has to be confirmed – as well as the request of head coach Urs Fischer – because four points from the first three games may indeed be a point yield, which would have to be good enough to remain first-class at the end of the season, Nevertheless, the newly promoted may not stand out after this victory.

Granted a rather low risk at the down-to-earth club, who must also renounce in this game on the red card on the second match day for two games locked Keven Schlotterbeck. Apart from that, the long-term injured Marcus Ingvartsen is still missing with fiber rupture, while Grischa Prömel and Florian Hübner are not ready for action with knee problems.

Defensive failures that were recently made by Sensation Transfer Neven Subotic. The Serb, who once celebrated two German championships and a cup victory with Borussia Dortmund, became next to double goalkeeper Marius Bülter hero in a 3-1 victory against BVB.

Now he must ensure against his former teammate Nuri Sahin that it defensively continues to run so well in the Iron, who have so far only allowed 38 shots on goal, but on the other hand made 41 own shots on goal. Values ​​that point to the fact that at Union Berlin against Werder Bremen our tip on at least two goals in the first half has quite a hand.

After all, the climber is not hiding with defensive routes, but despite the large gap that gapes in terms of budget to most of the established Bundesliga, more than willing to solve the tasks in the upper house of German football playfully. The last time that worked amazingly well.

Best scorers in the league:
🥇 Sebastian Andersson and Marius Bülter (2 goals each)

Expected formation of Union Berlin:
➤ Gikiewicz – Lenz – Subotic – Friedrich – Trimmel – Andrich – Schmiedebach – Bülter – Becker – Ujah – Andersson

Werder Bremen – Statistics & Current Form

Actually, the international break should bring some rest to the team, should give the convalescent the opportunity to work on recovery, and treat the fit players a little break. When SV Werder Bremen, however, lined up in the game-free week a bad news to the next.

As if the military hospital with the three center-backs Milos Veljkovic, Ömer Toprak and Sebastian Langkamp not already to bursting full, so now injured even captain Niklas Moisander at departure.

A total of ten players Florian Kohfeld thus for the important away game at Union Berlin are not available, especially the defensive becomes a veritable mock task. Although the Bremen coach said at the final press conference that he had already found a solution for the missing players, he did not want to reveal his idea yet.

Probably, however, a defensive three-way, in which next to Marco Friedl, the last centralized center back, even Michael Lang and Nuri Sahin could slip.

“We will not send a player to the court early if there is still a risk. […] I am totally convinced of the players who are there. We will bring a really strong team to the pitch in Berlin and we want to win this game. ” – Florian Kohfeld at The Kicker

Whether that’s enough to effectively defend against the very aggressively aggressive Berliners remains to be seen remains to be seen. The fact is that the Bremer defensively too rarely brought the concentrated experience on the court. For example, Werder’s players used to have an average age of 28.4 years. Nevertheless, there were at least one goal in all three league games, a total of eight in number – the third worst league score after Mainz and Augsburg.

All the more remarkable is that at Union Berlin against Werder Bremen the odds of bookmakers turn out in the direction of the North Germans, where just in the game forward almost everything about Nuri Sahin ran. The former Dortmund player has already prepared 22 shots on goal in the current season – that’s the absolute highest in the league.

The fact that the 31-year-old now has to be able to help out in the defense does not make it easier for Werderans to storm the An der Alten Försterei stadium in the same manner as they did ten years ago in the DFB Pokal.

But: With last-minute new signing Leonardo Bittencourt, who was loaned by Hoffenheim and promptly got the jersey with the fateful number ten, has also opened up for the role of Spielmachers at least a new option to the already three-season goals Yuya Osako to use. It will be all the more exciting to see how Florian Kohfeld will solve the staff puzzle on Saturday.

Best scorers in the league:
🥇 Yuya Osako (3 goals)
🥈 Niclas Füllkrug, Josh Sargent and Johannes Eggestein (1 goal each)

Expected formation of Werder Bremen:
➤ Pavlenka – Friedl – Sahin – Lang – Selassie – M. Eggestein – Bittencourt – Klaassen – Osako – J. Eggestein – Füllkrug
